After not practicing 4x4 for weeks, new PB average by 11 seconds. The consistency is strange for me.

number of times: 5/5
best time: 1:26.72
worst time: 1:36.77

current avg5: 1:27.56 (σ = 0.36)
best avg5: 1:27.56 (σ = 0.36)

1:27.61, (1:36.77), (1:27.09), 1:27.97, 1:26.72

Fisher's Cube, UWR soon?

5.16, 3.53, 3.15, 3.08, 3.05 = 3.25 in comp.
I surprised I started off with a 5 and instead of screwing up badly I managed to get a faster time each solve. I think the main reason I didn't choke on the final solve is because I thought it was my 4th solve, not 5th. Yay for confusion. lol.

(55:43.109, if you can't see the pic)
5880 moves... 950 movable pieces... I think that is the first and last time I'm solving this thing

 

[Sa967St]

I now have a useless UWR
most DNFs in one competition... 16 out of 48 solves

3 DNFs in 3x3x3 (1 in each round; all intentional; I just gave up on whenever I had a bad solve)

1 in OH (failed to start the timer)

3 in BLD (no explanation needed, I just fail at BLD in competition)

4 in 2x2x2 (1 in each of the first two rounds, 2 in the final round; 3 were because I failed to start the timer, 1 was because I did a J perm from the wrong angle)

1 DNF in 4x4x4 (intentional, I messed up the centers and I didn't notice until I started doing the cross on the 3x3 phase)

4 in 5x5x5 (1 by accident, 3 intentional; I didn't start the timer on the first solve, and since I didn't have a 5x5x5 for 2 months I haven't been practicing it so I didn't really care about my results so I DNF'd the rest after I got one success which made the cutoff time)

yeah, so 5 DNFs were because I was stupid and didn't wait for the green light on the timer to go off, 3 DNFs were because I suck at BLD, 1 DNF was because I did a J perm from the wrong angle and didn't notice until after I stopped the timer, and 7 DNFs were failsolves that I purposely gave up on because that's how I roll

Lol, yeah. But my aII wasn't as fast as it could have been i don't think, I lubed it just before this average

 

[Hyprul 9-ty2]

57.88, 56.74, (1:21.79), 58.73, 59.81, 1:06.66, 59.85, 59.65, 57.71, 1:03.11, (55.57), 58.94 = 59.91

Finally sub 1!

Wow, nice. You really are catching up. Apart from, whenever you get better, faz gets better, I mean 8.50 a12? Lol, that beats this by 4 seconds. Nevertheless, you're getting crazy fast now.

I now have a useless UWR

Yeah, that is kinda funny, but I had 4 DNF's, from twenty seven attempts, and I have a feeling they were all puzzle malfunctions.

Yeah, but Feliks will eventually hit a barrier/will improve a whole lot slower than me . Hopefully eventually I can catch up to him, but I doubt it will be soon, though it could be .
