Anonymous FMC WR

[Jason Tzeng]

After I saw the newest FMC WR single, I checked the FMC WRs' mixed history, and I found a person whose name is "Anonymous", and the page doesn't show his/her gender, who's this guy?

I saw this too. I wonder if they fall under protected persons? The WCA does require actual identities and competitors agree to have their identities listed for results just by competing. That's a scenario where someone legally has their identity hidden though.

who's this guy?

If the guy requested with WCA to have their identity hidden, then I think we should respect that and not try to look.

That being said, I have heard that the guy made a new account with a public name, tho I can't 100% confirm that to be true.

We might not know who his is, but they certainly have a cool WCA pfp!

 

[Fukuoka Kengo James]

This is probably his real name

Mr or Mrs Miss Ms Anonymous
In Britain you can change your name to any name. Like Mr Vote For Me
We have a political party - Monster Raving Loonie Party, they do it.

Also, you guys don't know of very easy tools to find his name if you wanted to lol

may i ask how you found this out?
also @OtaMota is master doxxer
though i think that if they wanted to be anonymous originally, then we should respect that

@Maddoxer is the true master doxxer.

@Mods, can we close down this thread? The person clearly wants to remain anonymous , and having an entire public thread of people theorizing of why they left cubing, why they become anonymous, who there are is incredibly disrespectful to them. Especially with the people describing exactly how and where to find this person's identity.

 

[qwr]

looked up Polish champion of FMC in 2018 cubing, scroll down a bit and he's there

truly master doxer

[callumthecuber]
