Top 100 in 3x3x3 BLD are now sub-2 minutes (Congratulations, Chuck and Iril!)

[Anthony]

On a side note.. Where did this Iril guy come from? Indonesians are getting too good at BLD!

I hope there will be more to come

I have no doubt there will.

gogogo Anthony, remember the corners I taught you
can I join the sub 1:30 race? I'm having an unoff. competition this weekend, so that doesn't count, otherwise 2 competitions in april

 

[Yes We Can!]

But I don't think we need five years for a hundred sub-1 times, just look at how epic this list is: http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/events.php?eventId=333bf&show=100%2BResults&single=Single

HaiYan Zhuang also got a 34.90 in the normal 3x3x3 speed event. I think he does it blindfolded (memos, closes his eyes), so he even did sub-BLD-WR times, which don't count.

Wait, doesn't he have 15 seconds inspection? He could memo it in that time. Anyway, Iril had like a 1:01, and a few others are close. And lots of people we don't know about, in that http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/events.php?eventId=333bf&show=100+Results&single=Single
that will be all sub one this year, and the other list that only counts each person once, will probably be 3 years max, and more likely 1 and a half.

Yes, you are right. My mistake. But still sub-1.

Yes, and I may be wrong about the inspection. Maybe he doesn't use inspection, and judging by his time, it's actually less likely he does use inspection. Otherwise he'd have sub 30'd by now.

 

[Zava]

if you're practising for bld, why would you use the inspection time?

 

[amostay2004]

I believe Haiyan doesn't use the inspection time during his 3x3 rounds

 

[joey]

He'd OBVIOUSLY get way better times if he did use inspection.

I just got pushed off the list, today.
