My god, finally!!! Sub-1 on 4x4! Took me forever for some reason...58.34, wasn't lucky or anything, only PP to J-perm. I feel like I could average this for some reason...

Second non-cubing related accomplishment today:

I have a collection of Google pictures. Let me explain. Google, on certain occasions, like St. Patrick's Day, will put up a special photo instead of their normal Google logo. So one day, a few years ago, I started collecting them. I would go on Google on holidays and get photos. I challenged myself to get more than 45. Today I got my 46th. Yay! (I know, it's random)

 

[EmersonHerrmann]

That's such a cool idea


P.S. - you should make a thread:

"Holidays on google" heheheh

Three 14s!!! Take off the couple of mess-ups and I may have gotten sub-17.

EDIT: Oh, this isn't a personal best average(my PB average is 16.96) but it is just an average I am happy with as I am getting closer and closer to getting another sub-17 average.

4: 00:18.94 x
3: 00:18.11 x
2: 00:16.11 x
1: 00:23.39 x

Average (3/5) : 19.19

Done on Cubetimer.

Those 5 solves are the start of my first sub-20 average of 12!

12: 00:22.37 x
11: 00:19.04 x

ok... I've charted my recorded times from today and 30 days ago, and I seem to have dropped about 3 seconds in a time span of 30 days. I guess that's okay... I was around 29 seconds and now I average 26. Pretty good, I guess

Finally I've been waiting to post this so I can post my successes, (Thank's Emmerson) a sub-10 3x3 single (8.91), a sub-1 2x2 single (.62) a sub-1 4x4 single (58.22) my most proud accomplishment it has been my goal for quite some time, and a sub-2 5x5 (1:56.07) (however I have quite a few of those) a sub-30 3x3 One-Handed and a Sub-.90 Magic single (.81)

I didn't get owned for I doubted myself.

 

[jcuber]
