[precompsubwr]

There have been many rumors of Yiheng DNFing a 0.38 2x2 single yesterday, but it hasn’t been confirmed by anyone yet

There was no video or pictures of the solve
Solve 2, scrambles below:

Let me know what you guys think

I stared at it for a while, trying different bad things, then I found a 5 mover. Solve the orange face and you get a CLL skip: z' F L2 U' L U'. So it seems likely that Wang Yiheng would send it and risk DNFing for a potential WR single. Hopefully it wasn't his timer start/stop again.

He did the same solution but from a different angle:
x y’ U R2 F’ R U’

I managed to get 0.41 on it btw

There is a vid in discord. Seems to be Yiheng accidentally stopping the timer while solving. By his reaction, he knows he accidentally stopped the timer.

Don’t tempt me back into the 2x2 solvers.

If I find a YT vid of the solve I will share it here.

I downloaded the vid to my phone, but SS forums doesn’t allow direct videos for some reason.

are you sure it was not his future self stopping the timer?

Could it have been .5 without the false stop? Timofei did well
