And the new 3x3x3 SINGLE WR is...

[Radu]

Are we sure that this is even correct?
I personnally cant believe it and if it is the case that he got aa 6.21 time in an 1:23 average then I will probally quit cubing

lol...this is obviously a mistake. I wonder if someone really believes that .

I heard he did like a 12-move cross, and then inserted one corner and skipped everything else! That's why nobody else got a really good time on that scramble.

 

[Neutrals01]

I thought 1st April is the day for this kind of jokes ...but people seem to get really serious about this.

Don't make rumors! People will believe you.

hahahaha
yes it is a BIG mistake. She averages over a minute, it was probably a 1:06.

Who's responsible for this?

probably the guy who posted the results of the Canadian Open on the WCA site: Bob Burton?

Longer cross leads to easier rest of solve? I knew Yish was right!

Regarding the "WR:"
How was this mistake even made?

Is it really that hard to figure out? Humans do these things, and humans make errors. You guys all saw this as Bob was inputting the results. The system does not let you input it all, proof it, the make it live. It is live as he starts to input the data. He inputs it, sees the error, makes the change.

There was an error in the file. These things happen. They have happened before, and will happen again. With so many times in a worksheet, with few people trying to do a lot of things in a short period of time, you will find the odd mistake. Perhaps people should be a little more patient with the process. But i guess the internet doesn't work that way. Someone always wants to claim, "First!" as if it makes them significant in life.

And for the record, Hazzelelponi is female.

In short its called "human error"

haha...great quote!

The time was changed from 6.21 to 1:06.21. BUT... the person still has credit for 1 NR and 1 CR and 1 WR. If the person is female, then the Gender box needs to be fixed too.

I actually have the PDFs of results (from before they were entered into the database) and the 6.21 is there too. So the mistake was made at the competition, not by the person who uploaded the results.
