If the squats not deep enough then it doesn't count. So that lift is disqualified.

In principle, I agree. Where it gets more complicated is that I had already announced Majorflavaz as the winner before this issue was raised. In hindsight, I shouldn't have been so quick. If we do this Challenge again next year, I'll definitely wait until the winner has been scrutinised by others before announcing anything.

And yes, I previewed a video for MF. In my defence, it was a different video, and I also said "Depth could be an issue, but put it up and see what people say." But clearly I'm no judge, and I'll handle that differently next year too.

Under the circumstances, the fairest thing to do is to let Majorflavaz resubmit. There is a clause in the rules allowing this, anyway. Providing his bodyweight stays under 105.4kg, he needs a full-depth squat of 220kg or more to maintain his lead on Wilks points.

This situation is not ideal for either Leeroid or Majorflavaz, and I sincerely apologise for that. (Although, as Jimmybro says, it does add a bit of drama and excitement to the competition...)
