Dear WCA Community,

As Board members, we dedicate many hours to overseeing WCA operations, ensuring alignment with the WCA Mission Statement. However, this focus can sometimes magnify internal issues while overlooking external perspectives. This led to a decision that prioritized the inner workings of the WCA over the broader cubing community.

To rectify this, we have returned Yiheng Wang’s 0.78 average in 2x2x2 Cube at Johor Cube Open 2024 to the WRC for analysis and determination of appropriate penalties. In addition, we have authorized and encouraged the WRC to perform frame-by-frame analysis of past attempts, including cases that have already been closed. This process will require careful consideration, as it will have far-reaching implications for past, present, and future attempts. The exact penalties and changes to historical results is not fully known at the current moment. As they become better understood, the WRC will communicate the changes over the coming weeks and months.

We stand by our decision to uphold Yiheng Wang’s 0.78 average as one that was made with the best intentions to preserve the integrity of speedcubing in a systematic and robust way, by addressing the processes of the WCA and not applying ad-hoc “fixes” in a way that may be appear to be targeted, arbitrary, or otherwise inconsistent. We take the consistent application of the Regulations extremely seriously, and it has been our number one priority throughout this entire process. We knew that this decision would have downsides, but it is clear to us now that the downsides were not appropriately balanced. The Board will be reflecting on this situation and taking into consideration changes that we can make to avoid such blind spots in the future.

Signed,
The WCA Board of Directors
