These Rubik's Cubes are a CRIME

your Rubik's Cube could get you arrested well actually no but did you know that some cubes are competition illegal so today we'll discuss about that and then via a game show we'll expose all the weird loopholes in WCA Cube regulation so you would want to stick to the end so without further Ado let's get into it now if you actually want a rundown on what cubes are legal or not you can read the WCA regulations article three who's going to read all that essentially it bols down to three things number one smart cubes aren't allowed secondly transparents or semi-transparent cubes aren't allowed these are usually the expensive special editions essentially cool cubes aren't allowed n just kidding so lastly cubes that are overly damaged such as a cracks corner piece that you can fill with your finger is also disallowed now just for fun let's play a game I'll describe four cubes and you will have to decide which two are legal and which two are not so first and foremost we have a normal queue just that the center caps are modified so that they do not pop off as easily next we have the world's smallest Rubik's Cube ooh that's kind of small yikes next we have a pretty regular Cube It's just that all of the stickers were peeled off and now the colors are hand painted using acrylic lastly we have a cube that does nothing special except for light up a little bit when you turn it now I'll give you a second to try to figure out the answer on which two are legal and which two are not I'll review the answer so first and foremost the world's smallest cube is illegal and secondly no it is not the painted Cube believe it or not it is the cube that lights up so now I'll explain them let's talk about the illegal ones first why are they illegal so for the world's smallest Cube you can argue that this regulation right here it states that you cannot compete and intentionally get a bad result and using this cube is literally asking for a bad result and next for the cube that lights up a little bit although it does not give advantage and it does not give others a disadvantage but it contains an electrical component and this regulation forbids any and all electrical components and now for the painted Cube yes look at that there is a regulation that specifically states that you can in fact paint your cubes and lastly for the cube with modified Stander caps it is completely legal you can in fact modify your cubes as long as it does not give you additional information on the state the cube is in and make sure no electrical parts as well so that that's the answer so that'll be the end of a simple video I hope you enjoyed it and if you stayed so far till the end well thank you so remember to like subscribe more videos are to come
