Definitions of time restraints:
- Time limit: a time restraint at which the judge stops the attempt immediately and records the result as DNF ("Did Not Finish"). Exception: For Multiple Blindfolded Solving, if and when the time limit is reached, the judge stops the attempt and the attempt is then scored; the time limit for the attempt counts as the original recorded time.
- Cumulative time limit: a time restraint placed on the elapsed time for all allotted solves. If during an attempt, the competitor reaches the cumulative time limit, the judge stops the attempt immediately and records the result of that attempt as DNF. The competitor is ineligible for subsequent attempts.
NOTE: If you know you cannot solve under the time limit for an event, please refrain from registering for that event. This really helps the organisation team with accurate scheduling and the ability to better maintain our strict schedule.
For a deeper understanding of terminology used, please refer to the WCA Regulations.
* Competitors are allowed to compete in at most one of the following events: 4x4 Cube: Blindfolded, 5x5 Cube: Blindfolded, and Rubik’s Cube: Multiple Blindfolded.
