Incident: A competitor did several attempts with an illegal puzzle without accepting the extra attempts

Status: Resolved

Incident description and resolution:

A competitor competed with a cube where one of the stickers on the red face was a distinguishable shade from the others. This violates Regulation 3d2):

3d2) The colors of the colored parts must be solid, with one uniform color per face. Each color must be clearly distinct from the other colors.

The competitor did 4 attempts with this cube, and then did the last attempt with a legal cube. When the WCA Delegate asked if the competitor wanted to replace the 4 solves with extras (using Regulation 3k2a), the competitor declined.

As the round had a cutoff, the competitor did not make the cutoff after his first two solves (as stated by 11e2), so the WRC has decided to record the results as DNS, DNS.
