What timer did you use? CCT says: 10.01 average of 12 and 9.71 average of 5.

Anyway, well done! I guess you shaked after the 7.09.

I used a stackmat and used Dan Cohen's IRC bot to store the times. It's his fault.

To Be Determined >_>

Hopefully early Feb though.

did you want to go to chigago, we would fly there but tickets are cheap and laura knows someone there so we would just stay with them?

Dude, I may not even do sub 10. I didn't really want to post it, cos Rowe said people will expect alot

which obviously happened. not that they wouldn't have expected a lot before that.

I hope you guys won't let it make you crazy when people "expect a lot". I know it seems bad, but honestly, people say things they don't really mean. When they tell you something like, "You have to get a new world record today!", they don't really mean that. They're just trying to be encouraging and let you know that they'd love to see one. I've seen quite a few good cubers get affected by this, and it's kind of sad. I've been guilty of doing this to Ville for BLD, and I hope he realizes I'm just having fun. I don't really "expect" him to get a sub-40 average of 5 in 3x3x3 by doing it BLD (Haiyan-style); I would just love to see it, and so I let him know that in a joking fashion. But I'd hate to see him scared off from competing because "Everybody is expecting a new world record" - I'd love to see him compete, regardless of what he gets. And that's true with all you regular speedcubers, too. People love to see you compete, whether you get world records or not. And we might act like we're disappointed when you don't, but that's just us being stupid, and really we're just happy we got to see you compete at all.

So please don't take people's comments as meaning that you absolutely must perform at world-record level at every competition. You don't, and it's not fair for anyone to expect that. Everyone has bad days, and you need a really GOOD day to break a record.

I haven't been cubing for a while... Came back yesterday... And now... BOOM! New PB single: 14.08 (old one was 15,39 - 1,3s down!). Yay.

In my opinion no one should care about these comments. Saying: "Break the world record!" is easy. Actually breaking the world record is not. Honestly were there any speedcuber who broke one and said: I did it for you, beacuse you told me to do so. I guess not. But maybe i'm wrong.

Anyway, if it helps you fazrulz: You won't break the 3x3x3 average world record in your next competition for sure!

Easy for you to say, Mr World-Record-holder

 

[Olivér Perge]

Mr World-Record-holder

My name is Mr. Olivér Perge.

 

[Toad]

Mr World-Record-holder

My name is Mr. Olivér Perge.

If he was planning to break a world record would he really have chosen to do it when there were about 5 people watching?
