I have a confession to make...

[Hadley4000]

This is the same as last year when Jason Baum posted about quitting cubing.

 

[Konsta]

Haha
At first I was pretty shocked

 

[Dene]

I'm hoping its the first

Me too.
But seriously all you guys that actually consider this to be real are stupid. Like as if it was real he would come on here and tell everyone and ask to be friends.

 

[Ellis]

I'm hoping its the first

why? (you had to be expecting this question)

Because Michael is the greatest simulated cube solver ever. If someone can beat him I have to seriously question reality... I need to be able to sleep at night.

Yea why now, he'd already won. On april first of all days.

is sleep necessary?:confused:
and i wouldn't mind questioning reality, makes life much more fun in the long run
(back on topic) ehhhhh idk now.its like the magical words of Dene soothe me into believing that this is all just for giggles

You would think, after all this, Robert would tell us the truth.

 

[fanwuq]

Rob,
Can you resist not going on hi-games.net for one day? What if you accidentally get a PB?

You guys can stop >_> It's clearly an April Fools' topic. The reason video evidence is convincing is because it would take so much effort to fake it that it would be completely not worth doing. Of course it's still possible (for example, as the creator of IsoCubeSim, I could make a version with a slower timer and then speed up the video to counteract that) but I can't see any decent cuber going to the trouble to cheat a video because if they get caught they'd basically have to quit cubing.

I'm not falling for it. Even though it's still 11:10 on March 31 here in the US. Early April Fools joke in my eyes.

Well, I was joking... I think the nature of the thread is pretty obvious.

It isn't early for robert.

 

[badmephisto]

you managed to "hack into" the simulator? Anyone that is familiar enough with how this could potentially even work (and oh my god would it have to be convoluted...) would never use those terms to describe it. Clearly no idea what you are talking about, so false.

 

[holypasta]

lol.
hilarious, i guess.
too bad it's still 10:50 (March 31) in California

 

[AvGalen]

A confession, at last!

Robert, all speedsolving-moderators, Ryan Heise and the WCA-board-members are now gathering to decide on an appropiate punishment. Right now, the options are

1) A ban (from the simulator, speedsolving and the WCA)
2) A requirement to post only extremely helpful things until you reach the status of Top-Poster
3) Implementing a special keyboard scheme for you that only allows R-turns and x y z rotations
4) Not a ban, but a "cannot compete until the return of Kuti"
5) Teaching Yish his own method

 

[watermelon]

5) Teaching Yish his own method

That would be quite a punishment.

 

[shoot1510]

That would be quite a punishment.

What if Robert-Y lied to do it? He can fake the punishment for it.

I'm feeling it that this is a April Fool thread.

Imagine a combination of getting "Pochmanned" and "Dan-the-ban-hammer"

I've spoken with the WCA Board, and we agreed on the following:

1. Because Hi-Games is not a sanctioned WCA event, the WCA will not and cannot administer any official WCA punishment, whether through the updating of WCA records, or through sanctioning of participation in WCA events.

2. Hi-Games qualifies under an unofficial-official WCA Mystery event.

3. A violation in ethics in an unofficial-official WCA Mystery event warrant punishment in an unofficial-official WCA Mystery event.

4. The punishment will therefore be the substitution of the offender for Patrick Jameson on a pogo stick.

Is there a WCA cubing jail?

 

[Tyson]

Is there a WCA cubing jail?

Yes, I think it's called Newark Penn Station at 12 AM on a Monday morning.
