Don't watch if you have high standards.

Dan and Shelly in 1st, Jeremy and me second, Dan and Lee in 3rd, finishing with a green cross. That was so fun.

I see a BattPoke!

I see a BattPoke!

Indeed. I'm wondering if it's possible to make the BattPoke into a mystery event, but I doubt it, because a mystery event needs an objective, and the BattPoke doesn't lend itself well to accomplishing anything.

Sure it does. I just don't think it's easily Stackmat-able (although I did get a BattPoke through a void cube in two tries)

Yeah, that's true.

Phew! I was afraid this was footage of yes/no team bld at dinner after the competition. NOBODY needs to know about that!

Go on, I can see a story coming on that you seem eager to tell.

We were doing yes/no Team-BLD at dinner. We got to PLL, and Jeremy uses a J-Perm to swap adjacent corners for 2-look. He had a J-Perm. The dialogue went something like this:

Jeremy: "Are these two corners solved?"
Me: "No"
Jeremy: "Do these two need to switch?"
Me: "Yes"
Jeremy: *Does alg, solving the cube* "Are corners solved?"
Me: "Yes"
Jeremy: "Do I have a U-Perm?"
Me: "No"
Jeremy: "Do I have an H-Perm?"
Me: "No"
Jeremy: "Do I have a Z-Perm?"
Me: "No"
Jeremy: "And the corners are solved?"
Me: "Yes"
Jeremy: "Is the F2L solved?"
Me: "Yes"
Jeremy: "And I don't have a U, a Z, or an H?"
Me: "Yes"
Jeremy: (to himself) "Is there another case?"
Me: Silence
Jeremy: "Is it solved!?"
Me: "Yes!"
Jeremy: Throws cube on table and hits the timer

That might have been the best cubing experience of my life!
