pll timeattack 32.38

That's ridiculous. Also, UWR. Submit it :O

I've been improving in PLL attack too, earlier today I got a PLL attack of 47.35, and then just now I did this:
50.29 46.66 45.60 46.24 47.32 (51.11) 47.24 47.53 43.82 48.35 (43.57) 48.78 => 47.18
Every underlined time was a PB!

i think i know what it is y' not y sorry bout that

I did some more PLL attacking on raynheise.com. Managed to get down to 36.77 (for typing it in) and 31.17 (for the computer replay), both timed on stackmat. Computer cubes are still faster than real life

jep, that works. really strange way of solve. but cool to do , what method is this? roux?

 

[qqwref]

Nice Roux solve!

I got a 13:38 on the hi-games 10x10 simulator. And then a 12:56 First sub-14 on that simulator ever, and first sub-13 ever!

I that case beating the computer is my next goal

i think sub 30 is possible, the 32.38 had quite a few lockups and a bad start.

not mine but still... wtf o.0
http://hi-games.net/cube-2x2x2/watch?u=187

don't we all hate people that get so lucky :/

yeah, im shocked that this 1 move solve didnt get removed for being too lucky.

Why? Solves don't get removed from hi-games for being lucky. Why should a 1-mover be an exception?

i was birding him.

Ooh, Michael is now the new king of the biggest cube and he used purple instead of orange for some reason

Unlucky with the wrong two centres and double parity near the end of your solve I wonder if sub-10 is possible...

Yeah, it was pretty unlucky at the end. I use purple instead of orange on the really big cubes now because orange and yellow looked too similar, I'll only switch back if I can find a shade of orange that doesn't get me confused with yellow or red. I don't know about "new king" of the 10x10 though, I've actually held the UWR (it was 13:49 with IsoCubeSim) since September 2007!

4x4x4
1:15.xx ao5, 1:18.xx ao12

I'm going to get a sub-1 solve before 3/7.

 

[bixarrio]

I know it doesn't quite compare, but I did my first 3x3 Sub-60 today. Time was 57.61. My avg. (of 5) also came down from around 1.30 to 1.09. And I know there's still a lot to learn (like OLLs, PLLs, finger tricks, etc.) so got plenty of improvement ahead.

sure its only a UWR by .01, but I'll take it. only 2 of the solves were lucky.

earlier today I had a 8.36 avg of 12, but it was lucky. it contained a new PB avg of 5: 6.92, (10.30), 7.25, 8.09, 8.09 -> 7.81

they were both part of a 8.97 avg of 100

Koen, why have you let me catch you?

YES! YAY! FINALLY! I GOT MY FIRST SUB-20!

It wasn't exactly lucky, but it was pretty easy X-Cross, and one of my fastest PLL cases (Y permutation). Official time was 18.58 gotten from CubeTimer. I think it may have been the new logo that really got me going.

CubeTimer says that my average is 29 seconds now, I'm finally sub-30 average also. I never thought this was possible two months ago when I started cubing. Now I want to get consistent sub-20 averages.

Sorry, I forgot to post this...

10.46, 10.79, 10.05, 10.19, (9.68), 11.04, 9.74, 11.41, (11.82), 9.89, 11.12, 10.47 = 10.52

Scrambles are on my blog (link is in my sig).
I used my orange C4Y cube for most of the session.
