Hi , This is the Round 1 of cubing comp august 2022. Read the Instructions - Regulations: Penalties: If upon completion of your solve your puzzle is misaligned, a penalty may be applied to your final time. If your cube is a single quarter OR a single half turn away from being solved when you stop the timer, a penalty of +2 seconds is added to your time. The permitted degree of misalignment is set at 45 degrees, assuming a quarter turn is 90 degrees. This means that if the misaligned layer is closer to being correctly aligned than it is to being incorrectly aligned, no penalty will be issued. If two or more layers are misaligned (e.g a 3x3 is an M move away from being solved), then the time is recorded as a DNF (did not finish). ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Scrambling: Scrambles must be applied with WHITE TOP GREEN FRONT. 5 scrambles per round will be given by @SmartCreator123. If you are unsure of how to apply scrambles to your cube, or cannot read notation, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24eHm4ri8WM. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
