I'm kinda hoping that the new little 6cm 4x4x4 cube isn't better than mefferts or clefferts because I ordered a cleffert's from dealextreme a day before I came across the new little 6cm 4x4x4 cube :(

Wow! Tell me that 12.92 was lucky :eek:

Does this mean you're contemplating switching to ZZ?
 
2x2 is CLEARLY the best event.

Erm, if by lucky you mean 'easy EOLine' then yes ;)
And I think I'm going to practice it a lot now, but I dunno about switching completely... We'll see, I do like it a lot now that I find EO+Line pretty easy.
Btw, I also got a 10.xx with a Sune + no AUF LL :P

10.xx?!? That's the fastest ZZ single I've seen to date! You need to get that on youtube man, for all the non-believers :cool:

If you can get your EOLine times down as low as your cross times I see no reason why it won't eventually surpass your Fridrich times. If you're happy with EO+Line, the next step is to do EO+Line without a need for a second look. Basically, track where the line edges end up after EO and then plan your moves for line. There's prob not much difference in speed between this and an optimised EOLine ;)

Also, I'm by no means an F2L expert, but ZZ F2L is noticeably different from Fridrich F2L, particularly for the first 1x2x2 blocks. Making full use your freedom to fully rotate the L and R sides leads to a lot of shortcuts in building the first blocks. Similarly to Fridrich, free slots are also V helpful :)
