If you have a BLD pop, do you have to stop? Or can you go looking around the room blindfolded for a tiny piece?

I would not like to be that judge in that case, running after the person holding the paper

But sure, you can repair it if you can...

 

[Jai]

Awesome video, Magnus. I loved it.

 

[hr.mohr]

Don't you people ever read the regulations if you have questions about the official rules? :rolleyes:

Bugrit, I'm getting a "Video is not available in your country". Now I can't see if I'm in the video. And more importantly I can't see all the funny stuff that I missed at the comp.

I know, even i get it if i am not logged in on youtube, aparently its blocked by UMG (they have claims on one of the songs) outside US. I have made an complaint for that, i dont use so much of the song and i dont think it should be blocked. I hope it will be up later for viewers outside US. Its sad because that music is the funniest part of the movie..

Have this happened to anyone of you before?

To Mr Mohr, i was thinking of doing that, but then the end were so nice already so i left it out. Also he tried to tie his megaminx into his shoes or something, that is just perverted!

^ I can see and hear the video just fine. I laughed and laughed at the first minute or so. Very clever words (on screen) and music. I didn't know there was a mashup of Smack My ***** Up and Sail Away. How crazy is that?!?!

As for legality, the record companies have you by the balls. Essentially all copyrighted music is protected for anything but "fair use", unless you pay. There is an urban myth that you can use "only a little" of a song and it is legal. Not true.

Fair use only covers teaching, research, journalism, and parody. While your video was quite funny and entertaining, it is not parody of the original material, and furthermore it contains a mashup. It's stupid that record companies want to protect this kind of thing, that makes ZERO money for the producer (you), and only promotes their product (Enya and Prodigy), but that's the way it is. Sorry.

Again, entertaining video!

Brian.

It happened in Brussels. I was judging another French cuber (Antoine Perdereau for those who know him) at MBF, and while solving his second cube an edge popped and rolled on the floor. After a bit of thought he said "ok, it's a 50% chance to put it correctly in place, I'll go for it". He jumped on the floor, kicking the edge and pushing it 2 meters farther away in the process, went into the direction where the piece had gone and missed it by about 2cms before beginning searching in another direction and finally giving up.
When I explained to him what he had done we both had a good laugh. I really wished I had a camera on me at this time

 

[Claesson]

Its not the mix that youtubes system identified, its the first song by Queen. Well, we will see what happens now, if i have to take it down i will do that. Its nice so see that atleast you americans that seen it likes it

 

[hr.mohr]

The one dane that got to see your video before it was flaged also liked it very much :-D

 

[KConny]

I liked it too.

 

[Erik]

That's got to be the best cubing video ever!

 

[scottp45]

That was funny...
At least you didnt step of the cubie and trip (happened to me yesterday)
I liked at the end with the text...."no one called Stephan Pochmann names"
Like what names?

 

[mati rubik]

I can't see de video

 

[AvGalen]

Silent screams rules!
Husk everyone during blind!

I am really sad I missed this competition because of work
There is no way you can compare this competition and the last German National and find simularities other than "WCA-rules and events" and "Erik and Dennis".
