    What... I was just doing some 4x4, my record was 46. I got a solve with really nice edges, then an OLL skip and a J perm. I knew it was really fast, and I looked at the time during PLL, got a huge lockup on the last move and ended up getting 40.83. Still a huge improvement though!

    Just got a 12.11 average of 5 and 13.29 average of 12. There were a few bad solves to roll off the end of the average of 12 too, but I popped after that. Also had a 8.75 non lucky on the cube simulator: http://hi-games.net/cube-3x3x3/watch?u=135

    [Help Thread] "What cube should I get?" The Puzzle Choice Thread

    So I want to get back into 3x3 again, and I need a new cube. I think that I'm going to get an AV and an FII, as those seem to be the most popular. I just wanted to know, where is the best place to buy them, for reliability and price? My brother and I have had problems with sites not sending us...

    [Unofficial] Hadley Sheffield - Pyraminx - 4.38

    Haha thanks Jai. Anyway, I'm surprised I even still have the average NR, I thought someone would break it at NOS. It will definitely be you or Derrick, I don't usually get better than 10 or 11.

    Magic with feet: 29.16 (after several tries) Master magic with feet: 1:12.88 (first try) Seeing everyone else doing interesting puzzles with feet, I decided to find something to do with feet. The first thing I saw was a megaminx, but I'm not that crazy ;)

    [Unofficial] 3x3x3 AVG of 5 with Ron, Ton and Rama

    If Rama's last two times were switched, then they would all have their best to worst solves in the exact same order!

    40.30 computer 4x4. Could have been sub 40 but I messed up PLL a bit. I also had a solve where I was on PLL at 33 seconds, but got parity and messed up the PLL and ended up with 42.

    Blindfold Accomplishment Thread

    Yes!! I did it! 4x4 BLD in 26:41.28! My memo was just under 16 minutes, which is a minute slower than my last attempt, which means my solving was about 3 minutes faster. The scramble was quite easy.

    Yes! I just got my first sub 15 average at 14.98. I then kept getting better solves, until I got it all the way down to 14.31! I also got a 15.46 average of 100.

    Blindfold Failures Thread

    After trying only edges and then only centers on 4x4 (both successful), I decided to go for a 4x4 blindfold for the first time in several months. I was really happy with the time (just under 15:00 for memo, 28:46 total) which was amazing considering my other two attempts from several months ago...

    No, Eric Limeback had a 9.55 at Cincinnati with the same OLL and a PLL skip with no AUF. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZS0DeGjb3U

    US Nationals and Open

    I think I actually came third for 4x4, with a 1:03 average, but somehow my 58.94 was entered as a 1:14.16 dropping my average 5 seconds. I've emailed Tyson about it. I was kind of disappointed that only Americans got trophys, because I was looking forward to being first at fewest moves. Now I am...

    My record is 3:49, and I know there are others who have done it. Dan has a video of a 3:28 somewhere in the video gallery. The cubes will get a lot better with some breaking in.

    What do you think? V-CUBE 7

    I have to say that the cube is pretty amazing. My first timed solve was 9:02, and my record now is 7:06. It doesn't pop very much at all, but I think that the ones that usually pop for me are the centers next to the outer x ones (are those the oblique ones?)
