And what was the scramble?

Yes, I don't know the exact scramble, maybe someone still has it, but it was a one-move solution.

Yeah...they would have thrown that out as soon as they saw how short the scramble was

 

[Ninja Storm]

It was like, an 8-move scramble xD

Who is capable of picking up a cube, turning 8 moves at 24 tps and then putting it back down to stop the timer?

I think he meant it was an 8-move scramble resulting in a 1-move solution (or something).

[MirzaCubing]

Give me a few days to put up the results. I have another big event to go to tmrw -.-

Here's the scramble, with reconstruction, I didn't even know until copies were made XD:

Scramble: R F R2 U2 R2 F R2 U2

Reconstruction:

R

Oh, okay. I was under the impression you would have used the standard WCA scrambler. By default, the 2x2 scrambler is optimal, so if the solution is 1 move, so is the scramble.

Exactly why I said it would be thrown out (I thought they used WCA scrambler)

 

[MirzaCubing]

I did. I didn't make any changes, I simply clicked generate a few times and then printed 2 sets of 5.

If you used the scrambler on the WCA site then for a 1 move solution it would have to be a 1 move scramble

Actually I think the wca scrambler is suboptimal, only generating solutions of 5 moves of longer for any state.

Wasn't the world record set on a 4 move scramble (and 4 move solution)
