[Unofficial] Maskow: Single Blindfold 16.50

[Iggy]

Really fast, especially that memo :O

 

[Renslay]

And in current regulations it's too easy to cheat on orientation on official competitions and, believe me or not, some people do it and they don't feel that it's cheating. [I don't, of course, I am being looked after by delegates so I can't even if I want ;> ]

How so?

There is no rule that says you have to pick up any puzzle

Not starting with the cube in your hands necessitates picking up the puzzle if you want to complete a solve.

moves: 80
tps: 7.55
The scramble is awesome and it's a little cheat here

I agree, counting edge comms in HTM is cheating

Awesome solve though.

Of course it doesn't. Check a feet solve, table-abusing-oh-solve or even some skewb-solves

 

[szalejot]

Just... wow.
Execution is superb, but what I really appreciate is your memo skills. You memoed cube in less than 6 seconds. That is insane. During my solves I can make first letter pair in 6 seconds. (Maybe I am during second pair)
Great solve, try to repeat this in comp.

Yeah, you're right.

Change to "not starting with the cube in your hands".

 

[AlexMaass]

You could just ninja-slap the box off the table. : P

 

[CyanSandwich]

Maybe you should do an ao100 of just removing the cover and orienting the cube.

 

[TeddyKGB]

That reaction...

 

[thatkid]

That was insane

Motivation to switch to comms

 

[Tom606060]

Nice Job, Nice reaction, sitting there staring at the screen

 

[Ollie]

Damn corner buffer solved, so 32.28 on a 10/8 :'(

If I could sex your solve, I would.

 

[Mike Hughey]

That was just ... so beautiful.

=I have also one idea how we can cut another 1 second only changing rules for friendlier to competitors. I think that I will present it in near future but I really don't believe that WCA will be interested in making our life easier : P [it will be 2-3 seconds together, it's a lot]

Can you elaborate more on how others are "cheating" on their solves? Do they ask the judge to reorient the cube after it has been transferred? Random orientation shouldn't be only applied to world record solves, but to everyone.

Like picking up the cube in 2x2x2?

He said 1-2 seconds; not .2

Picking up and putting down the cube in 2x2x2 actually takes up a higher percentage of solve time than BLD centre orientation, so comparatively it's more significant.

What do you suggest, starting with cube in hand?

 

[Dane man]

I love your reaction, just freezing there and staring in amazement. Congrats on the solve bro.

No, using a random orientation for bld.
