Weekly Competition 2014-20

[Mike Hughey]

For the weekly competition, we are accepting results either of two ways:
1. Use http://www.speedsolving.com/competitions/. You will need to log in; please use the same username that you use on speedsolving.com! (You may feel free to use a different password, but use the same username.) Hopefully use of the website to enter your times will be self-explanatory, please post here or email Odder if you have questions.
2. Post here, as usual.

If you have posts in both places, we will give priority to posts within the thread, in case there are difficulties with the website.

We follow the WCA regulations for all events. Here are some things that people often don't know, or are different from the regulations:

• For Multi-BLD you can choose how many cubes you are going to do (let me know if 30 scrambles is not enough). If you attempt 5 cubes you must use the first 5 scrambles.
• For one-handed you can use both hands during inspection.
• For with feet you can only use feet during inspection.
• For 3x3x3 Fewest Moves there is a 1 hour time limit.
• For relay you have 15 seconds of inspection in total, you can use any order to solve the cubes and the rest of the relay-rules should be obvious.
• 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 will use an average of 5.

Notation and scrambling:

• For all events (other than skewb) the Mark2 scrambler will be used.
• For 4x4x4 and 5x5x5, a "w" means "Wide" so you turn not just the slice, but also the outer layer.
• For 6x6x6 and 7x7x7, a number before the letter indicates the amount of layers to turn like a wide turn. "3U2" would mean "turn the 3 uppermost layers a half turn".
• For Megaminx, Pochmann notation will be used.
• For Square-1, 2x2x2, and 3x3x3, near-optimal random state scrambles will be used.
• For Square1, the newest official scrambler is being used. This adds a slash whenever a slice move is to be applied.
• For Clock, a shortened version of the official notation is used.
• For Pyraminx, small letters are for the tips
• Skewb scrambles are generated using Chen Shuang's scrambler, which uses Fixed Corner Notation.

This competition starts now and ends Monday/Tuesday nightchange GMT (officially). Automated results will close at the official time, but if you are slightly late, go ahead and post your results here and we will include them at our discretion if we think it's reasonable.

[FJT97]

I have a question:


At the end of the week, Mats Bergsten posts the results.

The last column is named "contest results".

Whats that? Do we get points for competiting or what is meant by the contest results?

 

[MarcelP]

2X2X3 : (4.26) 11.12 9.17 (11.68) 10.75 = 10.35
3X3X3 : 19.09 (18.73) 20.34 (22.18) 21.13 = 20.19
4X4X4 : 2:00.54 (2:07.47) (1:47.75) 1:53.18 1:57.55 = 1:57.09

 

[Mike Hughey]

At the end of the week, Mats Bergsten posts the results.

The last column is named "contest results".

Whats that? Do we get points for competiting or what is meant by the contest results?

Yes. There is a somewhat complicated formula awarding points for the various events using a base number of points per event and the competitor's placing in that event. The total number of points is added, and the competitors are ranked based on their total points. There are no prizes, but it's fun to see how well you do in the list. Participation is rewarded rather highly, so someone who competes in most of the events tends to do rather well on points, even if they're not that good. At the end of each quarter and at the end of the year, Mats posts overall points rankings.

Some practice before a competition

Solution: F R2 U2 R U' L' F2 U L F2 U D2 B D' F D B' D' F2 D2 F' D F' D' F2 D F2 L2 U

Pre-moves: L2 U
2x2x2: F R2 U2 R
F2L minus slot: U' L' F2 U L F2 U
F2L: D. F' D'
Leave 3 corners: D' F' D F' D' F2 D F2

Insert D B D' F D B' D' F' at the dot (without the pre-moves in the beginning) to solve the corners and cancelling two moves.

Pyraminx: 17.11, (24.16), 15.47, 17.29, (10.16) = 16.62

I had only done one 7x7 solve before this and it was untimed, i am glad that each solve had a minute or more improvement over the previous solve, except for the last solve. I am really enjoying 7x7 and hope i can get sub 10 on the competition next week week. Everything else was pretty typical for me.

again, very close podium

Mats, you where slower on the 2X2 than on the 3X3. Is that a mistake entry?

Mats, you where slower on the 2X2 than on the 3X3. Is that a mistake entry?

No, I solved 2x2 blindfolded. I am so slow at 2x2 that I always take last place anyway .

First time I won in weeks.
