- A5b+++) [CLARIFICATION] The WCA Delegate should not grant the competitor an extra attempt solely based on someone picking up a popped or detached part of the competitor's puzzle.
- A6b1+) [EXPLANATION] The arbitrary value of 0.06 seconds was chosen to accommodate concerns about Stackmat timer malfunctions.
- A6e+) [CLARIFICATION] If the puzzle falls into the lap of the competitor after stopping the timer, this is considered touching the puzzle.
- A6e++) [CLARIFICATION] If [Regulation A6c](regulations:regulation:A6c) is used to penalize an attempt, the penalties in [Regulation A6e](regulations:regulation:A6e) should only be applied if the competitor releases the puzzle and touches it again before the judge inspects it.
- A7c+) [ADDITION] If a result signed by a competitor is found to be incomplete or unreadable, it should be interpreted the worst reasonable way (e.g. "1:05" will be considered 1:05.99, "25.X3" will be considered 25.73 if X could be either a 1 or a 7). Given that the Stackmat timer displays a time of X:0Y.ss as X:Y.ss, a missing tens digit should be considered more likely than a missing ones digit (e.g. "1:2.27" will be considered 1:02.27). The judge who signed an ambiguous result may be requested to clarify it, at the discretion of the score taker.
- A7c6+) [EXAMPLE] Examples of signatures that identify the competitor: Name, initials, WCA ID, competition registrant ID, a reasonable nickname.
- A7c6++) [EXPLANATION] A competition registrant ID is an identifier (e.g. a number) assigned to a competitor for the competition. Some competitions use this to keep track of score sheets and enter results.
