The thing about cheating is, it is really OK as long as you confess and apologize (and accept any necessary punishment) later. Then at the worst people will make fun of you a bit. But if you obviously cheat and then constantly deny it, and refuse to prove yourself, and don't give back the money you won with cheated results, etc... then you deserve whatever the community does to you. Not naming any names, just saying. We are all human and we all make mistakes, and as long as you are not an ass about it we understand and will (eventually) forgive you.

I think there is really only one person you could be referencing to, but same as you, I won't name names, but I don't understand how he can do that. He cheated, and won't give the money back. It's stealing money. He was an awesome cuber, and he threw all that practise and talent away. I had only read his story, a month ago, but I still feel like he has let everyone down. The world records were false, and screwed up due to him, but why did he do it? What were his motives. He held a few WRs that weren't fake, why get greedy. I wouldn't mind it so much if he had confessed, said sorry, and given the money back. He was a gun at other things in cubing. That's the type of person I don't like. People who have so much talent, and throw it away.

I make a lot of examples through Australian football, but I'm sure most Americans have heard of Ben Cousins. He was one of the best players, of all time, but he threw it away through drugs, not once, but twice. I forgave Ben Cousins, though, as he admitted to it, and strived to get back into football. He is a hero. The cuber we were talking about, isn't. He stole the money, and quit cubing. I don't see him coming back, which is a shame, as he was so good.
 
So Faz , how You explain Your 2x2x2 new video ?
First Solve is DNF for sure.. The sound is good, so We hear the reset button, do the preinspect, then start solve, pick cube watch it, press reset one more time, and then start. The next is, You didn't even show the stackmat. Most of the solves looks like , You stopped the stackmat with Your wrists... So for me it's just fake newbie video -_-

- And sorry for my influent english, but i hope You'll get the idea..

It's not a competition... I think generally people don't care as much about the rules being precisely followed in practice, as long as you still time the solve. Many people don't even use a stackmat, just a computer timer with one button.
 
oh, rly ? Maybe he have a solution on his computer or they're prepared scrambles ? After he cheated, i'd never believed his times and speed... Maybe he can solve the cube but cheating was cheating...And also the way he talks...he is too proud of himself, that he thinks he is one of the best speedcubers in the world...And don't tell me things like "When he go to competition he will break many WR for sure" That's a nonsense.. Just go and do it , rather then telling it everyone and everywhere -_-
 
@Shadet: Well, it's kind of hard for him, as an Australian, to just 'go and do it' and compete in a competition. Australia hasn't had an official competition yet, and airfares/accommodation overseas is expensive. Also, he has been to a competition, which he won, in New Zealand. Did he cheat at that?

Australia's not like Europe or the US where someone could go to a competition every few months. The only city with enough cubers (as far as I know) is Melbourne, and I can't imagine them holding more than 2 or 3 competitions in 2010.

Oh come on...
3.50 isn't even a particularly fast average for Faz... I've raced him on webcam, using my scrambles, and he is as fast as he says.
There are films of him getting some great times (i.e. the 42 cube UWR) at cubemeets in Melbourne, it would be impossible for him to cheat there.

I don't remember ever seeing a serious post by Faz on this forum where he says "I'm going to break loads of WRs" "I'm better than all of you" etc etc...
These are things that loads of noobs say about him. Noobs said exactly the same things about Nakajima. They just like to have a 'celebrity' to support over everybody else.

Most of the fastest cubers don't post their PBs here. In fact, most of them have never posted their PBs here. Faz has always posted his, so why should he stop now, just because it *seems like* bragging?

Seeing as he seems to perform well in competition compared to his times at home, I think he does have as good a chance as any cuber that fast of getting a WR.

I'm the last person to go around saying that Faz is better than everybody else... But a public accusation of cheating has to be one backed up with damn good evidence.
 
Lolwut. Why would I go to all the effort of cheating in order to create a video that isn't even that fast in the first place. The intention of that video was to show the maru 2x2's ability to people, and do that with some solves.

Also, I can easily make another video of a 2x2 average if you like, with the computer screen in full view. Although you can clearly see in the video that the program I am running is qqTimer.

Now, I don't talk about myself in that way, and if you can find me 3 or so posts that show this, I'll take it back.

In threads such as "When will the next WR be broken", and "Who is the next WR holder", you note that I never say myself at all.

Also, regarding me *showing off*. I always have posted my new pb's in the acccomplishment thread, even back when I was at ~20 seconds. Why should I stop posting them now?

As Rowan said ^^ Noobs are the ones who say these things on my videos and on the forums.

The reason I cannot go to any competitions is because I live in Australia. However, I, along with a few others are organising a competition here for January.

Do you have any evidence at all that I cheat?

Also, how would you explain this?

And please don't say something stupid.

EDIT: Lol I don't stop with my wrists. I'll see if I can find a section of the video that shows this. Would you rather I used a keyboard next time?
