Hang on a second....

What? I do not know what you mean now.

Sebastian Pino's location at rubikaz.com is ScrambleLand; sorry, but I found that kind of funny. xD

Really? I did not know that he was registered there. What nick does he have?

Edit: I have found an account from Sebastian Pino in rubikaz.com but his location is empty. I do not know if he have other account.

Is the thread starter not Sebastian Pino? I figured he was because the nickname contained pin0 and the first reply started with "Seba, [...]".
Also, this says:

Mr Pino later denies in public that he has manipulated the scrambles, as for instance expressed in the following forum post: http://www.cuberos.cl/foro/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2085.

, which for me undoubtedly says that it is his him.
If I am/was mistaken, I apologize.

EDIT: oh, sorry. I didn't mean rubikaz.com but actually cuberos.cl.

At first you said you knew exactly who it was who was 'impersonating' him. Then you explained your reasoning of why you *think* it was not him. That doesn't make any sense.

If you like, you can tell us exactly who it was since you apparently know.

He didn't say he knew, he said 'suppose' he knew. I thought he was being hypothetical in his original post.

Go back and read the exact wording.

You are right.

Clearly the person who posted it on the chat was not Sebastian. In Latin American Spanish we say "viste el scramble"=did you saw the scramble. The Spain´s Spanish form is "habeis visto el scramble". There are lots of other examples in the chat. That person was not Sebastian. He must be, for his kind of spanish, a Spain cuber who has some information. Very easy for native/latin/spain spanish to tell the difference. This is an attempt to worsen Sebastian´s reputation

 

[Kirjava]

Come on, it can't get much worse

 

[ElectricDoodie]

First off, the Spanish spoken in that chat is definitely not Chilean.

Also, you know why he said he would "say it wasn't him?" That's the easiest way to impersonate someone. I make the name Kirjava, and say a bunch of idiotic things, than say "Hey, if anyone asks me later about this, I'll just deny it was me." This is an obvious tactic, because when people really do talk to you about it, you ARE going to deny it. But, since I already stated that, it will only confirm that it is you. And you guys are falling into this trap, so easily.

Another thing, is that while playing with some SS cubers on TTW, Nakaji1084 logged on, getting avgs of 10secs. I asked him about Monster Hunter, and he had no idea what it was. Obviously it wasn't the real Nakaji (the real one plays Monster Hunter), and everyone started asking him about it. He instantly confessed that it wasn't him, since it was very obvious after his mess-up.

It's very easy to impersonate anyone on TTW, and get away with it. To think that anyone on there, especially if they're a famous cuber, is who they say they are, is ignorant. (unless you've had the real cuber tell you so from a source that you know is them.)

Not really. There's an arseload of real 'famous' cubers who are who they say they are.

 

[aronpm]

To assume they are who they say they are, without evidence, is ignorant.

No, the nick that you see was not Nakaji1084, it was Nakaji1085. The guy that used this nick is a Nakajima's fan and he also used this nick in www.rubikaz.com (there we knew who he was).

Due to this confusion, he have changed his nick and his new nick is Carlos Méndez (in TTW and in rubikaz.com).

Sorry, this has now led to confusion (I deleted my post because I realized that it was probably wrong). nevermind

 

[Kirjava]

You could be an elaborate impersonation of the real aron. Reposting his videos, pretending to be him on IRC.

It's not ignorant for me to assume that you aren't.

 

[rubikaz]

@Yes, We Can! You were right. You posted his youtube channel.

It lead now to confusion? Then I explain it again: Carlos Méndez's nick was nakaji1085 but he changed it yesterday (I changed his rubikaz's nick and Luis changed his TTW's nick).

His nick was nakaji1085 because he is a Nakajima's fan (and I think that Nakajima's nick is nakaji1084).

 

[Kirjava]

Feel free to do so, that sounds flattering.

 

[Godmil]

oops sorry you may have replied to my post, but I deleted it cause it was pointless.

 

[Kirjava]

Well now I just look silly ;_;

Due to the development in the case, the IAC has decided to make a statement (http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=940&p=5238#p5238)

/Anders

"Analysis of the scrambles made by members of our community
shows that the scrambles are too lucky and too special to be random"

I reject this statement.
I generated 100 numbers (pseudorandom, but nevertheless) and the chance of
getting exactly these numbers is 1 to 10^100. But I still got them.

It's just that we think good scrambles are somewhat special, but they're not.

And what was special about them?

Their being good is their specialty.
