    Red Bull Rubik's Cube World Championships

    After I resigned as a delegate I had no idea how things with the RSA had been proggressing and I was shocked to see this. Initially I was excited about the news: I saw it as an opportunity to grow cubing and provide a well deserved spotlight and cash for top cubers and asumed that the WCA had...

    Don't think too much

    Happens to me also. When I'm sleepy and solve without focusing I get very good times. It is as if superior functions turn off and fully-automatic responses take over.

    Proposal: Should the WCA be responsible for lost/damaged puzzles during an attempt?

    What we did in our last competition was to place all scorecards inside cube covers at the chairs in the waiting area. As people where called they sat in their respective seats and waited for their cubes to be taken from them by the runners directly into the scrambling table. As people where...

    Proposal: Should the WCA be responsible for lost/damaged puzzles during an attempt?

    If the organizer is held responsible for lost puzzles, then what? He should pay for them? This can been exploited as someone can simply "steal" their own puzzle and get another one for free.

    World Championship 2015 - São Paulo, Brazil - July 17-19, 2015

    Hello, 39-year old noob here, who's driving his wife crazy

    Welcome! I also started cubing in my mid 30's and drove my wife nuts. But as you get better she will probably love the attention and admiration you will get from people. At least it worked for me :)
