- B1+) [REMINDER] The competitor must use a puzzle without logos (see [Regulation 3l](regulations:regulation:3l)), textures, markings, or other features that distinguish similar pieces (see [Regulation 3k](regulations:regulation:3k)). This should be given special attention for Blindfolded Solving.

- 4f) Competition scramble sequences must be generated using a current official version of an official WCA scramble program (available [via the WCA website](https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/regulations/scrambles/)).
- 4g) After scrambling a puzzle, the scrambler must verify that the puzzle is scrambled correctly. If the puzzle state is wrong, the scrambler must correct it (e.g. by solving the puzzle and applying the scramble sequence again).
