Kalindu Sachintha Wijesundara19.67 FMC MEAN -

[EthanMCuber]

People read too much into things people write. God solved the cube in 20 moves - this guy did it in less. Therefore this guy is ...

The real God.

Personally, I think religion is all bs, but I'm not .

I agree with the assumed innocent until proven guilty.

We aren't reading into it too much, you're using this term incorrectly lol
God's Number is just called that, and has nothing to do with God solving a Rubik's Cube.
Let's try to keep religion out of this, and saying that about religion is probably going to offend some people.

I'm interested to see if they start an investigation soon, might ask a delegate at my comp about it tomorrow.

This is suspicious, he went from a PR mean I could get with lucky scrambles to world-class in 2 months, plus he's a delegate which makes it easy to cheat for him.

Not exactly true, God’s (in this context of the word not exactly a god from religion and stuff, but more meaning perfect optimal solver) number is if you were to give any scramble to the perfect solver, it would take at most 20 moves.

But that doesn’t mean it always solves in 20 moves, that’s just the maximum. Give it a 2 mover, and it will solve in 2.

UKCubefan, Kalindu is not the new god or perfect solver or anything because he did not solve the average optimally. It is very likely that the optimal solver would solve the 20 move that Kalindu did in a shorter solution, and the 21 move that Kalindu did would be guaranteed to be solved in a shorter solution by the perfect solver.

TLDR: Gods number is not the average movecount of the perfect solver, it’s the maximum, the perfect solver averages closer to 18

One of my friends is a delegate part of the WRC, and he said that they are looking into it

That's good to hear, I had minor thoughts that the WCA would not look into the average

Yeah, I mean he said he believed so, but isn't 100% sure. Regardless I think they should. (Although IMO I don't know how they would go about this.)

 

[Jason Tzeng]

Are the scrambles and solutions public now?
(Doesn't find any thread to talk about it)

They should be, you might want to ask around in FMC solvers or something, as I believe the image of the sol and scram is posted there

 

[Discomantis]

It is sad to hear this.

Must be terrible for Kalindu to read through the bs. I hope he can avoid all the hate.

He is the most humble and honest person I have met!

It's not bs. It's based on reasonable suspicion based off of the competitors solutions, delegate status, and the type of questions that they have asked online.

To be clear: I'm not saying that the world record is fake, but to call the suspicions bs would be far from the truth. Just because you know him to be a very kind person does not mean that these accusations are bs.

anyway, we should wait for the proper WCA teams to investigate before we make any assumptions or conclusions. We still do not know who generated the scrambles, and there might be information that we currently do not know.

The fact this went from a suspected and most likely fake WR, to an argument about a racist comment, to an argument about religion. I'm not religious either, but just let people believe what they want as long as it doesn't hurt others, it doesn't matter how weird you think it is. It's really not that hard to be respectful

At the end of the day, guys remember after you learn all of the most advanced FMC techniques; FMC just becomes another luck-based event.

You don't need to tell advanced FMCers this. They have good reasons for being suspicious.

Except for the fact that it looks like he hasn't learned the advanced techniques completely, as suggested by his basic questions in the FMC discord previously showed. It's one thing to be lucky, it's another thing to be consistently "lucky" for 2 rounds, averaging nearly 10 moves lower than what he did 2 months prior, which is coincidentally the time he became a delegate.

Plus he actually went from averaging mid-30s to low-20s in literally a week. As the 2 competitions after his 33.33 PR mean were one week and two weeks after respectively, and had only 1 FMC attempt each. He went from a 33.33 mean to a 24 and 22 in the next 2 weeks, again "coincidentally" the same time he became a delegate. He had also been averaging in the 30-40 move range since April of last year, making the 1 week jump to low-20s extremely less likely.

Facts can't be ignored, no matter how many :rolleyes: reactions you give.

Yeah U are right but I don’t I’m the one giving the most eyes up reactions

Just saying, if he did cheat, kinda seems like a shame for a 34 year to literally cheat just to get a WR on the fewest moves you can get on a Rubik's cube.

Are you saying that because he is older he doesn’t deserve it with cheating or otherwise?

 

[AhsanDaCuber125]

No, I'm like saying it would be a shame if he did cheat, its untrustworthy, which would be a bad thing.

 

[gruuby]

Are you saying that because he is older he doesn’t deserve it with cheating or otherwise?

No, it’s just that it’s more common for children/younger people to cheat. He’s probably implying that if he did cheat, it’d be immature.

Kinda missed the point of the message. I’m just confused why you’re defending him so much when there’s overwhelming evidence that he is most likely cheating.

I know how it feels to be accused of cheating and nobody ever deserves to feel that way; I just don’t want the cubing community to become a toxic place where every record is accused of being fake.

When did every record become accused of being fake?

It's only this record people on the Forums have been arguing about if it's fake or not because the suspicion is very high, from 33.33 to a 19.67 mean.
