[NeilH]

lol

yea i hate it when i solve the Rubik's Cube in 8 seconds

 

[GuRoux]

some slow turning practice:

worst: 15.07

mean of 3
current: 11.13 (σ = 1.43)
best: 8.99 (σ = 0.26)

best: 9.26 (σ = 0.30)

avg of 100
current: 11.58 (σ = 1.36)
best: 11.58 (σ = 1.36)

Also, i just thought of a cool new type of challenge. I call it the 3x3 mirrored solve. What you do is solve a 3x3 normally, except with one restriction: you must do it as if you prefer turning LUF. You have to do your F2L/F2B in a way that favours L moves over R moves. Also, for LL algs, you must mirror them all to the left.

example solves:
scramble: R2 F2 D2 R2 D2 U F2 L2 U' R2 U F U2 F L D' U2 B' D L2 D
roux:
L' U M' B' U2 l F'
U l2 U M' U2 L U' l2 U' l
F' L' U' L U L' U' L U L' U' L U F
M2 U' M U M U M' U2 M U M' U2 M U M2 U2 M' U2 M
cfop: (same scramble, and please excuse my horrible CFOP skills)
y x'
r' F D B2 U2 L2
L' U L y' L' U L
L U' L' U2 R' U' R
U L U' L' U R U R'
y' U' L' U2 L U2 L' U L
U' L U2 L' U2 l' B L B' M
U2 M2 U M2 U M' U2 M2 U2 M' U2

Oh and i forgot to mention 1 more thing. In roux LSE or EPLLs, you have to use the opposite fingertricks. For example, i usually use right hand for M and left for U, but in this challenge i have to use left hand for M and right hand for U. I know this challenge seems easy, but it really isnt. My best so far is 18.16. Give it a try!

13.2 second try, i don't see why it would be so much worse for you.

lol well I would have rather it be 5 7s in a row or 5 6s in a row....lol

13.2 second try, i don't see why it would be so much worse for you.

what?! are you mirroring CMLLs and LSE fingertricks??? how is that possible???
