Incident at MPEI Open 2015
WDC (2015-12-17 22:11:11 +0000)
Dear Community,
During the Fewest Moves event at MPEI Open 2015, Alexey Mikhailov and Kirill Litvinov communicated some information to each other relating to a possible solution. The information was not entirely specific, but this is a clear violation of regulations in an attempt to gain an unfair advantage so both competitors are therefore receiving an official warning and their Fewest Moves result will be changed to a DNF.
Please remember that communication of information about scrambles or solutions undermines the objective of fairness within the WCA and any future cases will result in warnings or bans.
Regards,
WCA Disciplinary Committee
