ehm.. what?

is that 2x2?

Why doesn't it count?

Yeah, 2x2, sorry, and I don't count averages of 5 for 2x2, it's too dependent on the scrambles. I'm very happy about the average of 12 though . Sorry, looking back on it that was kind of vaguely written.

Got my biggest pop ever today (or )
48 pieces fell off my ES 5x5 in the middle of a solve..

You should try getting 212-piece pop with a V7, it's fun D or too)

Not so much fun to put it back together

Accomplishment:

Megaminx record

Mo3: 1:33.12
3(5): 1:33.65
10(12): 1:37.70

 

[MTGjumper]

4x4 single PB of 52.03. No parity and PLL skip Reduction was ~32, which isn't unheard of for me.

 

[JustinJ]

I lol'd. The last two scrambles are hilariously easy. The last one is seriously one of the three EG cases I know, that I found just by messing around. I also did horribly on the second last one. I guess I need to speed up my algs.

(for 2x2)

Okay, Justin just asked me to do the average of 5 from his last post, and this is what I got... I'm sorry, but this just had to be on here.

Average: 2.50
Standard Deviation: 0.31

2.74, (2.86), 2.70, 2.07, (1.38)

= 2.50

So yeah, new PB...

 

[spdcbr]

Solved cube F2L with an average constant turing speed of 208 BMP!

YES!!!

I've had about 5 chokes over the last few days that should have been sub-40, so I was sooo excited when I got this!
My first sub-40!

I tried an average of 5 on these scrambles, got (3.15) 7.66 4.27 6.15 (8.33), average 6.03.
I got xLL skips on the 1st and 3rd one, but last two were normal solves for me.

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

(14.74) 8.66 12.18 (8.18) 12.02 = 10.95 average

Well, the 4th has a layer solved, and the 5th is the easiest EG case if you solve the red face.

 

[TMOY]

I saw both of them, but since I'm doing Guimond it didn't help me at all.

 

[MTGjumper]

4x4: 55.54 with OLL parity I was at OLL parity on 45 secs, so possibly sub-50 without parity.

Proof as to why guimond isn't a very good method Why didn't you take advantage of either?

 

[rachmaninovian]

yay 6:31.22 7x7x7.
this is what i did:
1. first 2 centres (around 1:05ish)
2. 3x3 (finished at ~1:48)
3. finish top, bottom layers
4. finish cage (finished at 3:50) this part took something like 20-30s i'm not sure.
5. last 4 centres. so i guess i took 2:40 for centre commutating? >.<

I just solve a rubik's world (3x3) for the first time. My sister's teacher walked into our house and handed one of them, asking me to solve it, because she needed it for class. I asked here where she got it and she said she found it in a closet at school.

Are these even made anymore? It says 1982 on it, does that mean it was made in 1982?

 

[Garmon]

I got sub 30 avg of 5 OH and sub 35 avg of 12 OH.

Don't you mean sub-40?

 

[shicklegroober]

First competition ever, Denver open, I got a sub 40 average and 18th place. My Pb average is only 38 sec. Super hyped!
