What is a soft cutoff?

 

A soft cutoff applies to the first two attempts.  If either time is under the cutoff, you get to finish the average of 5; otherwise, you only get the two attempts.

What is a hard cutoff?

A hard cutoff applies to all solves.  If any solve goes over the hard cutoff, you will be asked to stop and the attempt will be a DNF (did not finish).
