Just wanted to start a thread for my progress, so here's my pbs/mains/methods
2x2: 0.85/Gan 251 M/Ortega
3x3: 9.27/Gan 356 M/Intermediate CFOP
4x4: 1:04.78/Qiyuan/Redux
5x5: 2:37.99/Qiyuan/Redux
Pyraminx: 2.16/Qiming/LBL
Megaminx: 2:36.38/idk/Westlund
Skewb: 3.05/Gan Skewb M/idk
3x3 OH: 19.80/Gan 356 M/Intermediate CFOP
3BLD: 6:57.17/Idk/OP
I'll update this every time I get a pb

A PB I got the day I started this thread is a 31.25 ao5 for 3x3 OH
3x3: 19.14/PVC Coated Moyu Super RS3M Ball-Core/Cross-Intuitive F2L-2L OLL-1 or 2L PLL
 
First sub-25 ao5 for 3x3 OH: 24.71
Also finally sub-29 globally for OH
Edit: got my first sub-1 single for 4x4 in the weekly comp!!! 59.84! Centers were average, edge-pairing was too insane, and no parity with a free pair during 3x3 stage!

bro... i average 21 seconds and i have 3 sub-10s. an 8.49, 9.77 and a 9.46. lol
That's extremely suspicious as others have pointed out. My PB when I averaged 21 was 14.03, and my first sub 10 occurred when I was already sub 15. My first sub 9 occurred when I averaged low 14, and it wasn't even sub your current "PB."

I’m sub 20 and my real PB is 11.57.
I once got a low 4 which my friend scram it for me, and it was only few moves off (maybe like 6) and there were huge blocks everywhere. I don’t really count that or care about that as I don’t consider that’s a solve.

You are? Whats your ao100?
 
It is possible, with lucky scrambles, I average around 20 seconds and have done 2 11 second solves and at least 1 12 second solve
statistically it is possible, you just need a few scrambles that are like 27 moves. The thing is, this takes so many solves that you would most likely not average 20 seconds anymore once you encounter even just one of those. Therefore having 3 sub 10s when averaging 20 seconds is a sign of very slow improvement, despite practicing a lot. Not a very positive sign if you ask me.
 
Sounds a bit like me! Having done over 6000 solves and the majority of which are when I average 20 seconds, no improvement yet but probably just bad practicing!
 
Megaminx pb of 1:51.24
Woww u almost beat my PB! (1:50.08)
I'm coming for you...
I have just got a new megaminx PB of 1:48.97, my very first sub 1:50
Haha megaminx pb of 1:48.49! @Fukuoka Kengo James
My Yuhu v2M with ylm v2 springs is sent to Pi cube shop for setup, and once I get it back I will be like sub 1:45 🎅🏿
It would be really fun if we can compete on megaminx head to head. Will u come to Rubik's WCA World Championship 2023?
