if a cube pops, you should get an extra attempt (accidents happen, my dad's idea, not mine),
what's to stop people from popping their cube in purpose if they get a bad solve?

Agree on both points.- Feet format should be changed into av5
- 4BLD and 5BLD events should have recognised mo3 in official rankings
"This solve is really bad, if I pop my cube I'll have an extra attempt and get a better solve"
When/where was this decided?This spamthread is completely pointless.
Also, it was decided recently that nothing will change with feet, so no, it won't be removed, nor made to average of 5.
And middle slices will not be made +2. More likely +2 for misalignment will be removed entirely, but the WCA Board don't yet have the courage to implement it.
This spamthread is completely pointless.
- Give *concrete* evidence about how many competitors would be positively affected by the change. (A poll helps, but the speedsolving.com population is biased to English-speaking cubers and Americans in particular.)
Article 5:if a cube pops, you should get an extra attempt (accidents happen, my dad's idea, not mine)
Oops, sorry, that was the 2005 regulations I was looking at.regulations said:In 'Average of 5' or 'Mean of 3' rounds solves with a puzzle defect may be exchanged by an extra attempt, depending on the announcement for the competition. There may be maximum 1 extra attempt per round.
forget about cutoff times (again, my dad's idea, he thinks that you should be able to finish your average no matter how badly you do, but THE SCHEDULE. OH MY, THE SCHEDULE WILL BE SO OFF).
+1, removing of an event literally doesn't help anyone, 4bld 5bld mo3 are already a thing that are kept on a seperate wca page, we are at this skill level as a community and it should be reconfirmed for those who have achieved his accomplishment.
But at the same time this mindset wouldn't remove +2 which is morally right IMO, but I would rather being it competitors than severely hurting others by removing an event, that's just to drastic and sad at this point in time.
