Español
En esta competición la categoría cubo 4x4x4 cuenta con un límite acumulativo, es decir, los competidores contarán como máximo con ese límite entre todos sus intentos sumados.
Los jueces deberán detener al competidor tan pronto como llegue a este límite, y no deben dejarlo comenzar si tiene muy poco tiempo restante (regla 2k6).
Para poder calcular el límite restante de forma sencilla, los jueces pueden utilizar el aplicativo "Tiempo Límite".
Ejemplo 1 para un límite acumulativo de 5 minutos:
- 1er intento: 1:30.00
- 2do intento: 1:00.00
- 3er intento: 2:00.00
- 4to intento: ?
- 5to intento: ?
Quedan 30.00 segundos restantes para el intento 4 y 5 sumados (5:00.00 - 1:30.00 - 1:00.00 - 2:00.00 = 30.00).
Ya que el competidor parece promediar cerca de un minuto y medio, es evidente que no tendrá tiempo suficiente para terminar la solución del intento 4 en 30.00 segundos.
Por lo tanto, lo más probable es que consiga un DNF. En este caso, el juez no deberá dejarlo comenzar y su ronda terminaría en este momento.
Ejemplo 2 para un límite acumulativo de 5 minutos:
- 1er intento: 1:30.00
- 2do intento: 1:00.00
- 3er intento: 2:49.27 (INVÁLIDO)
El competidor contaba con 2:30.00 minutos para el tercer intento (5:00.00 - 1:30.00 - 1:00.00), por lo que su tercer tiempo excede el límite. El juez es el responsable de frenar al competidor tan pronto como supere el tiempo máximo (2:30.00 en este caso), por lo que el intento se cuenta como terminado en ese momento. Ya que el competidor no había resuelto el rompecabezas luego de 2:30.00 minutos (pues demoró 2:49.27), su intento pasa a ser DNF.
Recordemos que el juez no debería haber permitido que el competidor finalice su solución, y debe interrumpirlo tan pronto como llegue al límite.
Todos los intentos subsiguientes que no se realicen por haber llegado al tiempo límite serán registrados como "DNS" (Did Not Start).
English
In this competition 4x4x4 cube has a cumulative limit, meaning competitors have a maximum time limit across all their attempts combined.
Judges must stop the competitor as soon as they reach this limit and should not allow them to start if very little time remains (rule 2k6).
To easily calculate the remaining limit, judges can use the "Time Limit" app.
Example 1 for a 5-minute cumulative limit:
- 1st attempt: 1:30.00
- 2nd attempt: 1:00.00
- 3rd attempt: 2:00.00
- 4th attempt: ?
- 5th attempt: ?
There are 30.00 seconds remaining for the 4th and 5th attempts combined (5:00.00 - 1:30.00 - 1:00.00 - 2:00.00 = 30.00).
Since the competitor averages around a minute and a half, it’s clear they won’t have enough time to complete the 4th attempt in 30.00 seconds.
Therefore, they are likely to receive a DNF. In this case, the judge should not allow them to start, and their round would end at this point.
Example 2 for a 5-minute cumulative limit:
- 1st attempt: 1:30.00
- 2nd attempt: 1:00.00
- 3rd attempt: 2:49.27 (INVALID)
The competitor had 2:30.00 minutes for the third attempt (5:00.00 - 1:30.00 - 1:00.00). Their third attempt exceeds the limit. The judge is responsible for stopping the competitor as soon as they exceed the maximum time (2:30.00 in this case), so the attempt is considered finished at that moment. Since the competitor had not solved the puzzle after 2:30.00 minutes (as it took 2:49.27), their attempt is recorded as DNF.
Note that the judge should not have allowed the competitor to complete their solve and must interrupt them as soon as the limit is reached.
All subsequent attempts not performed due to reaching the time limit will be recorded as "DNS" (Did Not Start).
