Accomplishment Thread

[Chuberchuckee]

I got a 29.99 seconds 3 of 5 today. First sub-30 average, BARELY made (just .01 seconds!) AND at the end of the month (28 February). I seem to make advances at the very last day of the month. I solved the cube in under a minute for the first time on 31 December. I accomplished my first sub-40 average on the last day of January. Pretty wacky.

I don't have a vid (in fact, I don't have any videos of me solving the cube), but I'll post a screencapture of the times later. I did the solves on another computer.

I just got my first sub 40 on 3x3x3! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyhPP3EWd_Q

 

[dChan]

Nice job comface! Keep practicing.

I just screwed up what would have been a nice average of 12 for one-handed solving.

Haha, I saw that. You destroyed everyone else at 2, 3, 4, 5, and OH. Man, I wish I could go to comps where everyone else sucks that much I've never even placed at 3x3, people are too good around here.


I did a 2x2+3x3+4x4+5x5 relay in 2:38.89!!! The order was 2354. I finished the 5x5 at about 1:45 so I'm guessing it was 1:25ish and the 44 was sub-55 (normal solve with no parity). It felt sooooo good...

EDIT
I did a random avg of 12, using my long lost 2x2 (an A2F) which i thought was awful... and i got this:

which is pretty pleasing. This was with a combination of LBL, Ortega and CLL. Quite obviously, the 10th and 12th were CLL

Did another avg of 50, that confirms that I'm sub 6

[kaixax555]

Today during Singapore Open I beat my own unofficial PB with a 17.25 seconds solve. Then when I went home, I managed a 16.81 seconds solve.

During my official solve, I got a 22 second best single, good in my opinion as I was a bit nervous during that time.

 

[Tetris Cube]

45.97 average of 12, much better than I was a few months ago.

4: 00:51.35 x
3: 00:44.95 x
2: 00:44.33 x
1: 00:46.79 x

Copy pasted from cubetimer. My PB now is 39.xx, which I've gotten a few times, but none today.

My times would be better if I could execute G(d) and G(b) faster, and recognize which way to do E perm faster. Of course my F2L still sucks.

[Deleted member 2864]

I had my best average of 5 (23.xx) and my first average of 100!!! Yay me! I finally completed my first lengthy marathon average. The average was below 26.50, which was my goal, so I'm happy.
