A 5x5 walkthrough solve would be great, too. 😊

It's because a human nor any biological being cant turn that fast plus we don't have a hand or something on every single side , we can't turn that fast either , it's just not biologically possible

Oh wow now this is worse then the blindfold guy

I got a worse time than my PR.

I have no idea what he yappin abt (him now we need to put it in where it needs to be)like how am I suppose to where

Ive been cubing for 8 weeks and i got 3.42seconds.

Number 1 is the best one....

I just realised that he means Australian Dollars 😅

1:35 I have a good enough understanding of fmc to explain what was going on. So basically, nowadays the fmc meta is reaching a dr (domino reduction, a state that can be solved by R2 L2 F2 B2 U and D moves only) and then solving it from there. The human way of doing it is to relay as least as possible on luck. So, finding and checking as many eos (edge orientation, one of the steps necessary to get to dr), and then finding as many drs, and using the few that are most likely to get you to a solved cube in as few moves as possible (I don't understand that part as much, but there is some metric that makes you know roughly how good the dr case will be). So in short, the human way is to do the best over the parts you can easily control. The way computers solve, is to try and find the best combination of getting to dr and solving the dr. This means that a lot of the times, they will choose a longer dr, or one that looks bad to a human, because they can check it pretty easily and see if there is a good continuation. Or in short, computers are able to control the whole solve, so they use whatever is shorter, no matter if what makes it short is at the starting steps or at the end of them. The way Kalindu solved was a lot like the computer. He wrote a lot of eos, but didn't check most of them. In most cases he solved dr in a lot more moves than someone in this level will. His dr to finish was inhumanly short. All of that, combined with what you mentioned in the video was already pretty good proof that he cheated. Also from what I understood, after people checked, they found out he posted those scrambles on discord prior to the competition so people will help him get a good solution. And also someone who has a web or a program for finding solutions for scrambles checked and found out those scrambles were entered prior to the competition, and the solution didn't match (disclaimer, I haven't checked if the things in this paragraph really happened, they might just be rumours...)

Kalindu ayya didn't cheat. I am also sri lankan. He is a very kind guy.

this whole time i thought delegates arent allowed to BE DELEGATES in THE SAME COMPETITION THEY COMPETE IN if only they would have been allowed to just compete or be delegate, not both

Very important event to discuss

So easy and quick!

Impressive stuff

Great tutorial! So simple and easy to follow

this is impossible rubix cubes hacks

Yep justified, get him out of here

Great tutorial thanks!

Wow, just wow. I have no words

It looks justified considering the evidence. He should not be allowed to become a delegate again. Not sure if that was stated though...

I think the community needs trust in every way. We competitors trust delegates to make the best decisions. I don't think it would be benefitial to anyone if delegates couldn't compete unless there is another delegate attending and co-running the comp.

As of rn I have done 1,039 official solves in 16 events

For me the two barrels of the smoking gun are the fact he genned the scrambles sooo far in advance (paper trail, indisputable) and also that the scrambles appear in that Mallard program in advance too (also paper trail, indisputable). Then when presented with these facts he still denied it, which really goes against his character. Reading the report I have a new found respect for the disciplinary committee!

i think an 8 year ban is fine. This guy cheated as a trusted delagate so i think he should 100% be banned.

Hi noble cubes I'm a Sri Lankan cuber and I was there when he broke the WR see me in my wca I'd Nethaka Vidun and the channel of the world record holder @rubiksbro

This has a lot of misinformation in it, please read the actual report before you make a video when you know many people are only going to watch your video, and not read the report.

Does it mean there won't be any competitions in srilanka. Ive been waiting for my next comp

damn makes you wonder... for normal solving it would be waaaay harder to figure out if a delegate already knew the scramble or not

top fmc solves can roughly be split into dr (top solvers usually use 11 or less moves) and finish (the rest that takes around 9 to 13 moves), kalindu often used 13 move drs but found really short finishes, which requires extreme luck as there are a lot of possible 13 move drs on every scramble, and these solutions matched the output of cube explorer after eo (first 5 or less moves)

Can you make a video about other 3x3 top cubers in sri lanka. I am waiting for that video.Btw great video. You deserve more subs🎉🎉

You should have credited the creators that you used the thumbnails from in your video.

I don’t solve it that way I solve a side then the first layer and then keep solving sides

What you described was not exactly what happened. It was proven that he used third-party online software to generate solutions a few days prior competition for his 24 and 22 nr singles, and (not proven but most likely what happened) for his 20.33 and 19.67 he used offline software to generate solutions before competition, not during the attempt

Well deserved

Bro thought he could get away with it

So disappointed I sri Lankan deligates :((

That’s why you are so much better

In the report they say it makes the WCA Look bad. In a way yes, but it makes them look good how they handled it

I easily understand the removal as delegate, but the ban is definitely too long. I feel like cutting it in half is still a long time.

One thing about the solutions where people were super confused was that the first parts of his solutions were extremely unusually long for a top FMC solver and the second parts were extremely short. While you could assume he wasn’t incredibly experienced and just went for longer solutions to the first part of the solve and happened to get lucky at the end, the chances of it happening not only in his wr but in both his means from that comp in the way it did are so low that it’s practically impossible.

At least the WCA didn’t try to sweep it under the rug

And the fact some people was on his side and believed it was legit

Just past 1000 only 8984 more😅

This is just beyond unacceptable from a delegate

Great video explaining all this

2:01 actually, if you read the report a little more you’ll see the scrambles were generated way before the comp, so he actually generated the solution about a month before the attempt and memorized the solutions.

Yes! I was hoping someone would make an analysis on this. It’s a very interesting topic to discuss

Did he really think no one would notice ?

How could no one notice?

I just read the report. He generated the scrambles for his fake WR 43 days before the comp, so he already knew the solutions (generated by a software tool) that he would write down. He did that also for 2 other comps and he lied to the WDC by telling them that he always generated the scrambles the day before.
