On June 19, 2019, at 8:00 UTC+0, the WCA Regulations Committee (the “WRC”) met for a private meeting via Google Meet.
The following members were present at the meeting: Antonio Kam Ho Tung (甘浩東), Iván Brigidano Pérez, Jules Desjardin, Lucas Garron, Oleg Gritsenko, and Pedro Miranda.
- We agree that temporary Regulations make sense because the policy contains recommendations while the Regulations need to be updated to allow certain new mandatory conditions.
- It makes the most sense to use the regular Regulations update process and plan for two releases (one to update, one to repeal).
- To make it simple to see the changes, we are currently leaning towards putting an article at the end of the Regulations. We can reference them inline when it overrides any existing Regulations.
- Ideas the Board asked us to consider:
- Allowing the competitor to verbally approve the time: yes, we agree this is a good idea for a temporary Reg.
- Competitor lifting the cover: no, we think this is too likely to lead to incidents. We think the judge and runner should still be the ones to touch the cover since that also helps minimize the number of people touching common items throughout the competition (although the competitor still drops the puzzle in the cover at the end).
- We discussed one part where the policy could be stronger: allowing 1 guardian per minor, and no other spectators. Fewer people in the venue is probably the best way to minimize risk, and it can be harder to keep track of the people in the room if there are a significant number of spectators.
