Happy with this :) NR pls.

2x2: 2.60, (2.55), (4.18), 2.78, 2.77 = 2.72
Decent scrambles, but I don't understand why everybody thought they were so awesome...

3x3: 10.56, 9.67, 9.99, (14.76), (7.35) = 10.07
7 was a PLL skip :) 14 a pop >_>

FMC became a lot more fun now that I've gotten some tips from Teemu, too bad I didn't find a good way to use them in this solve :/

OUCH! These are some really, really bad times. Should be, like, five seconds faster :(

2x2 BLD: DNF (44.57), 43.99, 39.07 = 39.07
3x3 BLD: DNF(1:44.86), DNF (3:46.87, lol), 1:40.43 (33) = 1:40.43
Yay, second fastest time ever :) on the other hand, I did my fastest solve ever the solve just before these :p. I'll be sub-1:30 in two weeks.
4x4 BLD: DNF (16:55), DNF (15:53), 11:24.44 (5:xy) = 11:24.44
after the first one I realised that the Y perm actually changes the centers. That's why I've been DNFing so many 4x4's... :(. The second one hade some huge recall delays before I gave up with only four edges left :(
5x5 BLD: DNF,
Multi: 2/9 60:00
Well, this week was a disaster. I felt tired and out of shape and my memowords sucked, to say the least. I thought I'd try to speed it but still spent 41 minutes memoing. Had finished "solving" 6 cubes after one hour, got my sventh as well, but then I accidentaly swiched my two last cubes. I tried jumping between halffinished cubes a lot. That was probably not such a great idea. I think this is my worst multi ever pointwise.

3x3 OH: 35.81, 57.78, 43.31, 36.31, 34.75 = 38.48
:) I felt that I was fast today.

Comments: I think it's good for me. Next time I'll try to get sub-7.
3x3: 21.63 26.91 (42.75) (21.11) 22.04 = 23.53
Comments: BAD! There was a small pop on the second solve and a major one on the third solve.

Last solves before Belgium :) Funny thing is that after doing a few 4bld in the past days, 5:52 for 5bld felt like a slow memo :p

Comment - good :)

Your signature is a lie.

So are your times, amirite?

I dare you to film an average with these scrambles. Yes, I said do them again. Should be even faster, right? :)

2x2x2: (5.38), 5.83, 7.21, 7.30, (8.66) = 6.78 avg.
Comment: Great average for me, all NL. Almost on par with my average from last week that had 4 skips.

3x3x3: 25.81, (28.96), 25.38, 23.69, (20.31) = 24.96 avg.
Comment: Another great average for me. Second comp in a row with a sub-25 average :D

Hooray for 2x2x2. :)
4x4x4 - Argh, pop on first solve, ruined OLL on second solve.
5x5x5 - Pop on first and fourth solve, PLL skip on last solve, new PB avg of 5 :)
Screwed up the 5x5x5 solve in 2345 relay :(

FMC: 22 HTM :)

Pre-moves: F2 B'

Solution: F' U2 D R' U' R B D' L2 R F D' F' R' B D' B' D B D2 F2 B2

2x2x2: F' U2. R' U' R
Double x-cross: D B D' L2
F2L minus slot + EO: R F D' F' R'
Leave 3 corners: B D' B' D B D2 B' (one move cancelled after adding pre-moves in the end)

Then the funny part, insert D R' U' R D' R' U R to cancel 8(!!) moves.

Seems like I just overlooked the other way to build the 2x2x3-block since I cancelled so many moves with the insertion. :)
