try 60 haha

 

[Tomarse]

lol, simon, i dont think it works like that
but yeah, give me 10 months, and i'll easily be sub 13 on 3x3 and sub 4 on 2x2. just you watch

I'd like to be sub 20 consistantly for next competition, I've done a 18.83 at home, but 21.34 in comp, did get a 17 and a 19 at manchester though sub 2 on the 5x5x5 I'm basically there now and sub 1 on the 4x4x4 i'm at 1:20 ish now.

 

[Escher]

whooooa tomarse you are good at medium cubes!

i think i could get a V7 for <£50 off thinkgeek inc shipping...

anyway, i dont actually think that ill be sub 13. but definitely, definitely sub 15. ive realised that i can achieve a lot more sub 18 avgs now/very soon, my barrier is only really psychological (and the fact that i dont know all the OLLs and arent that comfortable with about 1/5 of the ones i have learnt).

yeah, i was pleased with my 17.33 at the UK open (PLL skip...). shame my averages were like 4s worse than normal though

im also disappointed cos i pulled out what must've been a 16/17s avg of 5 before i competed - mtgjumper will attest

Well I'm sure if you practise, and I practise we could both be sub 18 avg, I'd like that alot, what is this website you tell me? Is it rather good then? (do you have a youtube page i can sub to?)

 

[Escher]

nah i have nothing to record with

i think there was a very recent thread about the thinkgeek v7, so search for that

once ive warmed up, i can relatively easily sub 18 avg of 5, but ive only ever got one (i think) avg of 12 sub 18. i know that now im sub 20 avg of 50 anyway...
sure, ill just finish the OLLs this week, and get hammering my lookahead...
wanna race to sub 18 avg of 50 tomarse?

don't know man I suck now, I can't seem to break the sub 20 barrier consistantly, its irritating. I'll post results from a avg of 5 now.

 

[Tomarse]

(21.42)
18.48
20.14
(17.67)
20.45 Average: 19.69

Can you see what i mean about consistancy?

More like 18s. I was pulling out 15s a lot, but I averaged 16.91 on the day (and sup 20 ).

 

[joey]

if you were getting 15s, and then got a 16.91, that's actually pretty good!
i do like 13-14s average outta comp, then do 16-17s mostly in comp :/

 

[MTGjumper]

Meh, my hands were shaking like mad, so I was surprised I did quite well. Pressure gets to me quite badly; I even started to crack under pressure when I got near to the end of an average I was filming today.

 

[Escher]

just film ALL of your averages
im sure you'll eventually get used to it...
and maybe you should go to more comps

 

[jcuber]

This is off-topic, but what is the supersune? Alg and what it does, please. I am too lazy to search right now.

 

[Stefan]

I am too lazy to search right now.

Then I'm too lazy to answer. Seriously, why would you ever say that if you want an answer?

All of my averages? I do one most days

Also, I'd go to more comps if they were held in the UK. I'm not going Europe-trotting like Joey seems to do

Searching for supersune here brings up this topic. Searching for "supersune rubik's cube" on Google brings up this topic. Did Escher mean anti-sune?

 

[qqwref]

supersune = r U R' U R U2 r', it's an OLL

 

[Unknown.soul]

supersune = r U R' U R U2 r', it's an OLL

Oh, thanks Michael
<- uses 2-look OLL

 

[Stefan]

I actually didn't know the name "supersune" but easily found out:
http://www.google.com/cse?cx=016833797707245983616:6o_f2otwty0&q=supersune&sa=Rechercher

Anyway, note I wasn't attacking the question itself. Only his arrogant additional comment that he's too lazy to search.

 

[Escher]

by the way, i was talking about the megaminx... its my own name for the pattern. on 3x3, what you guys call a supersune i call fat sune, and what i call a supersune is the F(RUR'U')x3 F' case, as the way i solve it is two sunes... i should probably call it double sune, but hey.
with the megaminx, my 'supersune' is just RUR'URU3R', and my 'normal sune' has U2' instead of U3.

tomarse - i just switched to ZZ, so you may have to wait a while until im back down to ~20... and i do see what you mean!
