F-My Life (Cube Edition)

At UK open yesterday, I got every single solve I did on video, except for my 2.27 NR 2x2 solve.

FMCL

@post before me:

Almost the same thing happened to me, but mine broke the day after I tiled it. FMCL... AGAIN!

I had 21.352, 22.376, 17.690, 23.729, in an a5
readied for last solve, going really well. OLL finished at 19 and POP! Time turned into 39.601. = a5 22.486 just .3 seconds off my pb a5. That could've have been 20.xy average.

FMCL!

Ordered from cube4you a while back. Among other things, I ordered two Type A (III-F)s. Neither one had screws or springs. I can't email him, can't Skype him, and can't make an account on the forum. I'm going to need to pay $16+ for two sets of screws and springs that I may or may not receive. FML.

Today,I was cubing late into the night and clicked a fingertrick video.Suddenly Billy Talent was playing and woke my mom up.While I was trying to stop the video my elbow hit my cube and it fell onto the floor and broke.

(true story I have no cubes now to practice with)

Just took an average of 5. The last two times? 12.19, and 21.37. Both were non-lucky. FMCL.

Today I was at the Dutch Nationals doing 3x3x3
first solve was 28 seconds, but it popped as soon as it hit the table. DNF
second was 29 seconds
next 29
then 31
omg, this looks like it's going to be my first sub-30 average ever!
22 seconds, only PLL left, two layers pop. I put it back together and resolve the last layer. 1.30 minutes, bye bye sub-30, and sub 40 by the way.

I got a nice sub 10 with an edge PLL skip because I used COLL. It was late and I had a headache so I didn't care after that because that was good enough for one night.

I did another solve, rather slowly, and got another PLL skip. I was a little shocked at first, but brushed it off and jokingly thought it would be crazy if I got another. Did another slow solve and got another PLL skip. At this point I started spamming people on msn like "WTF, 3 PLL skips in a row?". At that point in time I figured there was no f*cking way I could get another. So I did one last solve for the night, and I didn't really bother trying to go fast. ANOTHER PLL skip.

I know how ridiculously outrageous this sounds, and to be honest, I probably wouldn't believe most people if they posted this. Anyway, my average with those solves in it was 12.77. Any other time and it would have easily been a sub 10 average of 5. 4 PLL skips and I got an average slower than my official best.

The chance of that happening is 1/4,478,976. FMCL.

I'm sorry. That's brutal.

And that's the way the cookie crumbles, my friend. Always go for paydirt.
