2x2: 9.88, 10.19, 9.94, 9.97, 7.16 = 9.93
Comment: Consistent.
3x3: 22.43, 22.86, 25.34, 19.84, 28.36 = 23.54
Comment: I ALWAYS have a bad solve immediately after a good one. 19 was NL.
4x4: 1.27.55 O, 1.28.78 OP, 1.19.15, 1.24.43 P, 1.21.77 P = 1.24.58
Comment: Felt bad, but was really quite good.
5x5: 2.34.47, 2.44.28, 2.42.11, 2.35.59, 2.35.88 = 2.37.86
Comment: Not my best ever. My quickest time this week was my avg last week.
6x6: 5.17.56, 4.37.41, 5.04.97, 5.32.71, 6.04.56 = 5.18.41
Comment: Utter crap. One good solve, one average solve, 2 pops, 1 horrendous pop - which was also midway though O parity alg. If I stop on this I have to somehow trace back and start it again. My worst average in the comps this year so far. Very dissapointed.
2-4 Relay: 1.58.75
Comment: Sub2 is always nice.
2-5 Relay: 5.18.88
Comment: Oops!
Magic: 1.58, 1.55, 1.56, 2.30, 1.47 = 1.56
Comment: Nice single at the end to save my avg.
Master Magic: 3.08, 2.83, 2.72, 4.83+, 2.96 = 2.96
Comment: PB single. Stupid +2 on 4th cost me another sub2.9avg. I'm so annoyed with the 4th I actually can't describe in words without getting banned. Not happy!
Megaminx: 3.17.53, 3.14.36, 3.20.58, 3.20.01, DNS = 3.19.37
Comment: Done immediately after 2010-04s scrambles.
Square1: 1.04.38, 52.77, 1.23.63, 46.63, 1.40.68 = 1.06.93
Comment: Again, the curse of the good solve strikes with 4th and 5th. Done immediately after 2010-04s scrambles, and an amazing 16.32secs faster.

 

[Googlrr]

3x3: (27.80), 32.88, 29.02, 33.04, (46.43) = 31.65
PB Average..I don't know what was with the 46. I did the wrong G perm :< I was hoping to sub-30 D:

4x4: 3:06.88, (4:01.89), 3:16.32, (2:43.07), 2:55.08 = 3:06.09
Weird, I was averaging 2:30 yesterday :[

5x5: 5:00.93, 5:21.09, 5:10.14, (5:26.06), (4:22.59) = 5:10.72
That last one is my PB

3x3 BLD: DNF, 11:13.62, DNF = DNF
:< Only my 3rd successful BLD

joey.
3x3: (9.02) 11.90 (12.71) 11.55 12.23 => 11.89
PLL skip.

thom (he's here)
3x3: (12.41) 12.66 (17.66) 15.00 14.03 => 13.87
Could have been a lot better.

3x3
16.25
15.50, (13.45), (18.78), 17.43, 15.82
Comment: Considering the extreme pain in my right thumb not bad. I do a lot of algs that involve the thumb and they kept popping up.

Mats B
2x2: 17.39 15.64 13.82 26.95 14.08 = 15.70 ok
3x3: 65.69 43.33 88.52 70.05 42.73 = 59.69 sub-60!!
4x4: dnf 2:58.10 2:47.73 3:36.91 5:44.13 = 4:06.38
some variation in 3x3 & 4x4. But I have had to lay off practising 3x3 because of a stiff neck and it shows.
5x5: 8:02.30 7:38.26 dns dns dns
2-4 Relay: 5:30.06

Blindfolded
2x2BLD: 29.81 dnf 33.86 = 29.81
3x3BLD: 1:54.98 2:34.96 dnf = 1:54.98
sub-2 must be ok
4x4BLD: dnf dnf 11:13.80 = 11:13.80
had to go safe. The first was silly, I messed up the very first corner commutator
and could not fix it so I had to quit the solve after 15-20 seconds solving
5x5BLD: dnf 23:07.92 dnf = 23:07.92 PB.
Multi: 4/5 = 3 in 43:40 took long because of new memo.

[Flicky]

3x3: (22.45), 23.71, 27.23, 25.95, (30.34) avg => 25.63
I messed up the last perm really badly but it was still a pretty decent time. happy with it.
4x4: 2:09.91, (1:46.94), 1:52.42, 2:09.28, (2:36.01) avg => 2:03.87

[Sakarie]

Only did 5x5 blindfolded, scramble #3. I was unsure wether I'd done any of them, but I knew I hadn't done #3, so I took that one.

Success: 29:15

 

[Deleted member 4527]

2x2:4.62 5.11 3.70 (5.60) (3.69) = 4.48
3x3s are terrible substitutions for 2x2s

OH: 29.59 32.81 (33.06) 30.82 (23.79) = 31.07

Pyraminx: 5.21 5.60 5.25 (4.70) (7.33) = 5.35

Square-1: (17.83) 14.49 13.15 (8.71) 15.76 = 14.47
Good average, better single

3x3x3 Blindfolded: DNF(2:03.00), DNF, DNF(3:03.31) = DNF
Comment: Damn. First one should have been a success but I forgot to undo a setup somewhere.
3x3x3 Multiple Blindfolded: 0/4 = DNF in 21:49.59
Comment: Damn. Bathroom break during memo. 13 minute memo.

3x3x3 One Handed: 1:17.00, 1:04.58, 57.25, 56.16, 1:03.08 = 1:01.64

Pyraminx: (35.75), 17.30, (16.00), 26.06, 18.03 = 20.46

Comment: I didn't feel like doing much this week. I've been feeling unenthusiastic after the airport problems (v.v) and I don't want to do much until I get my new stickers.

[jave]

2x2x2: 10.10
(13.20)
11.54
(9.02) -- PLL skip
9.54
9.23
Comments: HAHAHA THIS WAS FUN. The first two solves had slightly trickier first layers, maybe that's why I was slower... Too bad for the 11.54 solve though, could have been my first sub-10 avg.

3x3x3: 29.52
(24.25) -- U perm, hehe
34.17 -- F2L fail, R perm
(36.99) -- F2L fail again, G perm
24.86 -- R perm again
29.54 -- A perm
Comments: Second and third solves were very bad, but somehow the average is sub-30, so I'm mildly satisfied.

4x4x4: 2:02.27
1:50.89
2:06.28 [DP]
(1:44.70)
(2:10.11) [DP]
2:09.04
Comments: Hahah, looks like sub-2mins is still a long journey away from me.

3x3x3 OH: 1:24.90
(2:14.12)
1:30.82
(1:04.62)
1:35.74
1:08.14
Comments: This is so s**ty. My friend borrowed my OH cube, so I had too use another cube which is too loose and it gets misaligned really easily. In the first solve, I popped and screwed up a G perm. Second and fourth solve, I wasted a lot of time reversing accidental moves because of the friggin loose cube I used.

2-3-4 Relay: 2:50.09
Comments: I am disappointed in myself. I was quite sure my 4x4x4 was sub-2mins. That means 50 sec for 2x2x2 and 3x3x3? Sigh.
