Okay all, so comp tomorrow!
It has OH meha pyra skewb squan clock
The next day it has FMC, and then I have another comp with 2x2 and 3x3 (same venue)

Gonna try and get some mega pyra and skewb pr’s (they could use some improvement) and also gonna try and get an FMC pr single.

I hope I don’t get bad scrambles this time for FMC. (The scrambles were the 3rd worst ever generated by EO count)

On another note, I’m also going to try and practice hard for my 4Bld comp this December. Really going to try hard to get my first official success. (I average about 30 min per attempt and I have 1:30 worth of time.)

After I get official 4Bld success, I will try to do either one of two things:

Either try and get a 4Bld mean (would require me to improve by about 10 minutes, and then get good at hard-safetying attempts) or, I can learn how to do 4/4 MBLD so I can attempt 5BLD.

I don’t know which one I will pick after I get the 4BLD success. Perhaps I could just practice gettinng 4Bld mean anyway before getting first 4Bld official success.

anyway, I’ll let y’all know how I do at the comp tomorrow

I have a comp tomorrow too! I will try to beat you in 3x3 and maybe 2x2 (I’m garbage at 2x2)
 
Comp went very bad sadly.

I choked pyra, got 4/5 z perms skewb. OH was okay, and in squan, I got an E1 out of PR average. (I overinspected by like 0.5 but judge didn't say 8 seconds inspection call)

And in clock, I debutted 7-simul flip (bpaul) and well...
9.56 (used flip cause inspection ran out), DNF, DNF, DNF, 6.98 +2 (inspection +2)

Yeah I lost 2 rounds due to that...

Oh well.

Tomorrow however I have FMC 2x2 3x3. Looking a bit more hopeful for those. After all, I am very rusty on pyra skewb squan so my poor results were kinda expected.

Hoping to PR 3x3 and FMC single, and hopefully 2x2. (I haven't gotten a 2x2 pr in 3 rounds)
