    [WR] FMC 19 moves Vladislav Ushakov @ PSU Open 2016

    I'm no FMC expert, but the square built with the first 2 moves is broken midway through the solve. I guess it could be a coincidence that those first moves help with the rest of the solve, but that first block is never used...

    Neural Networks for determining whether algorithms are good?

    That is a clever idea. I'm not sure what kinds of neurons and evaluations you would need, but looks like it could work. I can program stuff, so if you come up with a good plan, we can try to implement.

    One-Answer WCA Competition and Regulations Question Thread

    The regulations make exceptions for pieces missing only "at the end of the attempt" (see https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/regulations/#5b5), so for the beginning of the attempt you must submit a physically complete puzzle.

    Youngest person to "do" their age?

    I got my PB of 7.30 at age 24.84, so my result is a horrible 181.33.

    I think just using the "best average in the last 12 months" could work, and it wouldn't be complicated. Would be kinda the WL (World Leading) they have in track and field, but we would be using "current year" as in the competitions list. EDIT Here's the query for what I meant: SELECT...

    Unusual rounds

    Yes, you could have 3 chances to make the cutoff. I don't know what you mean with "meet the cutoff both times", since there's only two phases (as you pointed many times). I'm not sure about having 4 attempts to meet the cutoff, since that would be kinda pointless. And yeah, Board would...

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

    I'm glad you liked it :) Of course it was solvable! It took like 6-7 people and some minutes of thinking and trying, but we did it. In the end there were even more people, and they did an amazing job. For some reason I thought we already met before. Must be my brain going nuts with all the...

    Maybe it was Natán or Leandro, but I think it indeed happened.

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

    There was no strong reason for this, we just thought it would be cool to have all girls competing at once. But I can see how this may sound sexist or offensive, so I went ahead and changed it. The competition is public for anyone to watch :) No need to register guests.

    Using the ones you found*, the average is 29,21 years, or 21 years, 2 months and a half. * It's weird that the other ones don't have an id o.O

    All-Round Rankings (KinchRanks)

    From what I understood, singles are included for the bld and FM events. If you check his table, you see for example that Feliks' result for 333bf is 0.526, which is 21.17 / 40.28.

    All-Round Rankings (KinchRanks)

    Nice idea. It might be cool to do this for a single competition, to get the MVP of that particular comp. Can you maybe post one with the top-1000? Or 10000 if doesn't take forever to compute.

    It's even crazier if you look at the top-100 for the whole world. Feliks has 63 of those (2nd place is Kevin Hays with 11) Also, only 16 people have a result in the top-100, with 11 of them having only one result. I don't think that can be calculated, since every competition has a...

    Maria, we stayed at the Tulip Inn, and it is very nice. I'm not sure about stars, but I liked it (I didn't pay for it, though...kinda expensive). The first 3 in the list seem to be at least 3 stars: http://www.cuber.com.br/worlds/index.php?location=travel

    WC 2015 - Teaser

    I'm not sure if there will be tables at the main room, since they're making the bleachers. But there will be tables in the room next door. The lighting was very good at the main room (the sports court). The auditorium was a bit yellow-ish, and one or 2 lightspots would hit someone on the eye...
