Easy / Lucky / Hard / Weird scrambles Thread

I got 38.08. That is pretty average for me.

(If you competed in the sunday contest): Was this your best time from it?

whoa o_O I thought that cross was gonna be just kinda hard...and then in the middle of the first pair (like you) I noticed it Got a 14.96

Seeing that some with a practically Pro solve time did their cross the same way as I did, I know I'm getting better at it.

I got 28.33 which is good for me... However, I had a pair fixed, but inserted in the wrong place...

P.S. Can anyone tell me what is an x-cross??

 

[MTGjumper]

eXtended-cross: you have a corner-edge pair already inserted when you finish your cross. This can be accidental or intentional.

LAST LAYER SKIP!!!

Hey guys. I was recently doing an average of 12 and I came across this scramble:

L2 R' B2 L2 R2 B' F D' U F' L F' L D U F2 D' U F2 L2 D2 R B' F' L2

Try it out first and see what happens... I eventually got 6.44 secs on it and I average like 22 secs.

SOLUTION:
(I don't know how to hide text)


CROSS
y U D' R y' F R' L D'

FIRST PAIR
U L U L'

SECOND PAIR
R2 U2 R' U' R U' R2

THIRD PAIR
L' U2 L R' U R

FOURTH PAIR
U2 L' U' L

LL
U'

 

[Faz]

i think you scrambled wrong.

 

[Lt-UnReaL]

CROSS
y U D' R' y' F R' L D'

Should be R

THIRD PAIR
L' U2 L R' U R

FOURTH PAIR
U2 L' U' L

If you multislot this like L' R' U2 L U R, you can solve the last 3 corners with R' F' L F R F' L' F

 

[Shamah02]

Oh sorry about that... I fixed it

 

[JBCM627]

Works for me now

Cool. I would have gone for white cross, though.

 

[Shamah02]

CROSS
y U D' R' y' F R' L D'

Should be R

THIRD PAIR
L' U2 L R' U R

FOURTH PAIR
U2 L' U' L

If you multislot this like L' R' U2 L U R, you can solve the last 3 corners with R' F' L F R F' L' F

Oh I didn't see that Probably just cause I don't use MS

 

[ThePizzaGuy92]

wow, so what time did you get first shot at this?

 

[Shamah02]

10.53 yea I suck lol

Try this scramble:
R2 U' R U' R' F2 U' F R F2 R2 F R F2 U' R2 F' U' F R U F U2 R2 U'

with cross on D, there's a 2x2x2 block and it takes 2 moves for a cross!
Though i didnt get a good time on it cos i wasn't warmed up..

EDIT: gosh i'm so sorry..it was a 2x2x2 scramble..forget it! =D

10.53 yea I suck lol

I got a 24.43 on it, but since it was easy for me to make a double x-cross I won't count it as a PB (since there was a LL skip o_O)

And that's just dumb; I couldn't get the LL skip making a SINGLE x-cross but i had to go for double just to get it again...

Stupid... LL...

Hahaha easiest 5 2x2x2 scrambles ever. Generated by Cubemania, and my times were (using CLL):
5.00, 1.19, 3.00, 3.63, 6.13 = 3.88
It should've been better but I messed the first one up (took me like a second to realise the CLL case was FRURUF -.- ) which is very very frustrating Should've been more like 3.2 ...

Scrambles:

1. D' L' U' L U' F L2 D' B' U L2 B U F2 L2 D L' F R2 U R' F U R2 U2
2. R F2 R2 F R U2 B' L F' R D2 R B2 L2 U' B U2 L F L F2 R B2 U' R
3. U F R2 F2 R2 F' R' D L' B' L D B D2 F D' F2 U' R U F2 U' R2 D' L'
4. F2 U F2 D' B L F2 R D2 F' R B2 R B2 R' B U2 B U R2 F R' U L D'
5. B R U' F2 L B2 U2 F' U2 R2 D2 F' D' F2 R' F L2 D2 B2 L2 F U2 R2 F R2

Solutions:

1: FL: z' y2 R' U2 R' U' R
CLL: U2 F R U R' U' F'

2: FL: x' y R U2 R' U2

3: FL/CLL: x y' L' D' L U2 L' D L U2 L U

4: FL: x2 y R' U2 R U' R'
CLL: U2 R U R' U' y' R' U' R U2

5: Irrelevant, think I did a 2 move first layer and ortega..

Average move count of the first 4 solves is 10 moves, and I still averaged a puny 3.88! I'm so annoyed

2x2:

(1.83) F R2 F' R' F2 R U2 R' F' U' F U R2 F2 R F' U2 F2 U' F' R2 F2 R U' R
8 moves.

 

[Faz]

WOW...

9.14 non lucky. Second try was 6.93.

8. 9.14 D' L B2 U B' D2 B' U2 F2 L' R' F2 L' B2 D' U2 L2 R D2 U' B2 R B2 D' U'

Umm. 10 move triple x cross on L (color neutral!!!!!!!). I thought it was going to be a double x cross only, so after I made the last pair, I lost over a second looking for the last pair. Easy OLL and U perm.

Triple x cross: z' y' F L' U L2 U' L' U' F' U' F2

Wow...... How freak'n easy.

 

[MistArts]

U2 R2 B2 L2 U' R D' R' F' L' D' L2 B2 L D2 B2 L2 U B2 L' U B2 U' B2 U2
