Inspection time down to 10 seconds

[Kirjava]

More info

I do not think we should change the inspection time for events with inspection.

What do you think?

 

[Edward]

I think that we shouldn't try to fix things that have never been broken.

I don't really see the need to change anything, although I don't think it wouldn't make much difference to anyone's solves anyway if it was changed. I think the only even it might make a difference is clock, because there are often 1 or more lucky cases that take a small amount of time to work out how to use.

I agree. The idea that 15 seconds is too long really only applies to fast 3x3 solvers and 2x2 (and pyra). I think it will give slower solvers a larger disadvantage. Also, 15 seconds to someone who does't like time warnings, is really only 8 seconds. With there being only 10, when would the warning come, and how much time would it take to say the warning and explain the rules if someone is new

Also, I like the idea of consistant inspection times on puzzles, and 10 seconds for bigger cubes doesn't seem to fit.

If it were to be changed, which I don't think it should, then surely all the times with the old rules should be deleted because then it's unfair?

If this has to be true then it's just a ridiculous suggestion.

I don't see much point for changing something, I think it´s good how it is.

 

[Cride5]

Keep it at 15. My reasons.

 

[Sir E Brum]

I use ZZ and the method relies quite heavily on pre-inspection. So much in fact that it is an inefficient method for big cubes after reduction because the EO is a crucial part. Even 10 seconds would be pushing it for EOLine and 5 would make EOLine impossible to plan. This change would make the entire method almost completely useless.

love the vote. give the people what they want

I second this.

 

[Anthony]

Nothing will change unless our community wants it.

I think this poll speaks for itself.

 

[jms_gears1]

lolol i think inspection time should be like 90 seconds.

 

[MTGjumper]

Maybe change the thread title? I thought you were saying that it had changed

Anyway, it should stay at 15 seconds, for reasons others have stated.

 

[Athefre]

If Fridrich wasn't the most popular method would this change have been proposed?

 

[Carson]

Leave it as it is... but perhaps add inspection time to magic.

 

[Rook]

^ Ha.

I have to agree with the above posters; If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

 

[4Chan]

But I liek 15 second inspection.
.-.

 

[miniGOINGS]

I can do inspection sub-5, including starting the time, but it's really annoying. Fifteen is perfectly fine for me.

Ron has said they won't be deleted.

On topic: really indeed no need

i know it said that it wouldn't invalidate the old records, but wouldn't that make it unfair?
