new worst cubing judge 

I've never gone to a comp before and I'm waiting for one to be announced in my area (I missed the registration of the one next week RIP) and judging is one of my worst fears HAHAHA because I feel like I'm gonna forget to call a time or do something dumb that messes up the solve 💀

@@brownfamily1892 Everyone makes a mistake here or there about judging, its okay. Its very helpful to show up for the new competitor/judging tutorial, ask questions about what you are unsure about, and try your best. If this is helpful for you, I think the biggest mistakes new judges make are forgetting to call 8/12 seconds, cubing during someone's solve, and stopping the stopwatch when the competitor puts their hands on the timer instead of when they release their hands from the timer. If you are judging at your first competition and are unsure of anything the best thing to do is call over a delegate

@@seanhartman11 Okay ty and I never knew you're supposed to stop the stopwatch upon release of the timer and not once they put their hands on it, so thank you for that haha

@@brownfamily1892 You're welcome! Its a very common thing to not realize

@@seanhartman11 so does that mean that if I stop the stopwatch once they release their hands, and it's for example 15.5 seconds, do they get a +2 for the extra 0.5 of inspection time?

lol, i was about to leave a comp when i hear the voice of nancy hartman yelling my name and for me to “volunteer” for judging the last few finals of the day. i’ll never forget that and I respect her a lot, or else

nancy is like the coolest cubing mom

@@DcubesOfficialsame she’s great but same experience i was heading for lunch at fsubers with my mom next to me and i hear “chensley come judge! you have to judge” 😂😂😂😂 she’s a great delegate tho

Didn't you call for an extra attempt?

@@xelaCUBING too embarrassed 😅

@@macubing7318 Question from someone who's never been to a comp before: Is the 3-2-1 thing annoying when they do it instead of asking if you're ready, or is it also ok to ask if they're ready, then do the 3-2-1 AFTER they say they're ready? Or should you just lift the box right after they say "ready" That was a jumble of words so I'm just gonna put it like this: Which of these are ok or better to do? a) Ask competitor if they're ready, then do 3-2-1-lift AFTER they say they're ready b) Ask competitor if they're ready, then lift the box right after they say they're ready c) 3-2-1-lift even if the competitor hasn't said "ready" yet (this is the one that's annoying and shouldn't be done right?) pls answer bc im starting to get scared of judging at comps now HAHAHAH 💀 OH ALSO ALSO Do you call out 8 and 12 as 8 seconds elapsed and 12 seconds elapsed? Or do you call 8 and 12 as 8 seconds remaining and 12 seconds remaining?

@@brownfamily1892 definitely shouldn’t do the 3-2-1 thing as a replacement for ready. Many people take 30 seconds to a minute to get ready and 3 ain’t enough. Also right after ready they should just lift the cover. So b. Also u say 8 seconds after 8 seconds has passed and 12 after 12 have passed. Dw u will be a good judge just based on u asking these questions. There is also a new competitor tutorial where they teach h how to judge wel.

I always found most of those things pretty intuitive, especially if you’ve been cubing for a little while.

@@WillFaustCuber definitely comes naturally after more competition experience

What country?

lol then who was judging?

My first competition had a kid running who shouted people's names right at the scrambling table, instead of actually going to the competitor waiting area. I hadn't qualified for that round, but it must have been super distracting. And he mixed up two people's names repeatedly, it's lucky the judges noticed or else I don't know what would have happened. Same kid also stopped right in front of the table mid-run to watch someone's solve. All this to say, it's definitely possible to mess up running😅
