There have been many debates regarding Matyas Kuti cheating. Nobody actually knows if he cheated or he did not. It all started when one guy on the speedsolving. forum was suspicious of Matya's fast times. He was probably jealous and made a post about him cheating. As soon as other people saw thus, they became to question Matyas. What method did he use? How did he memorize?What blindfold did he use? etc. So the debate heatened up to the point where he was "caught" cheating in a video. In an attempt at multi-bld, he messed up on one of the algorithms and he fixed it in a layer by layer method. This could only be done if he was peeking. So the WCA members came up with an idea; they were going to test Matyas under strict rules.
They were going to keep a piece of paper in front of him while he solved the cube. He did not come to prove himself. Then the WCA made the claim of Matyas cheating. There have been several harsh forum "fights" over this. He was declared cheating, and was banned until he gave back the money he had won in competitions. To my knowledge, he has not returned it yet. He can come back in competition after he pays the money back. After paying he has to wait for 3 years. Pretty harsh, but hey the WCA has to show control over the speedcubing world.Now people are getting all mad at him because he is cheating. Okay, so he cheated. People make mistakes and you have to forgive them at one time in life. He was young and arrogant. He learned his lesson. This should be a red flag to anyone else who tries to cheat in competition.
EDIT: Many speedcubers think that he is a thief and a cheater. He isĀ because he stole like 2000 euros and has not yet returned the money, yet. I realize that there is much much controversy over this, so please don't send hate mails or anything like that. Thanks.

I think I know what I am talking about. Quote
I suggest you remove this article. It introduces debate and controversy where there really shouldn't be any. He stole 2000 euros that shouldn't have been his. Being a talented speedsolver has nothing to do with that. Quote
