Weekly competition 2010-17

[guusrs]

I won't miss this week's competition
After 20 minutes I got:

fmc: B F U2 F R' F' R' U F' R' D2 R F2 R2 F D' R' D2 R2 D'R2 B' R F' R' B R (27)

Explanation:
siames 2x2x2 + pair: B F U2 F R' F' R' U F' R' D2 R F2 (13)
F2L: R2 F D' R' D2 R D' F' (21)
LL (with 5 moves cancel!): F D R D' R2 B' R F' R' B R (27)

I'll spend the last 40 minutes this weekend.
addendum: found no shorter solution with 1-hour limit.

2x2: (2.91), 4.44, 3.94, (4.77), 4.72 = 4.37
Yay. Very nice average.
3x3: 15.72, 15.34, (11.81), 15.63, (15.77) = 15.56
0.16 SD. That 11.81 feels amazing.

I'm blaming you on this BLD.
2x2BLD: 11.77, DNF(12.08), 15.18 = 11.77
3x3MBLD: DNF
Was 1/3

One cube was off by 2 misoriented corners (No idea how that happened)
The other one I forgot to solve "in Gloria Jeans" which was the setting.

Someone's been practicing!

 

[MrMoney]

Someone's been practicing!

If you mean me, I have only practiced normal 3x3x3 and actually started to use abit of Roux. IT has helped me alot with my CFOP as I can more easily make X-cross / predict first pair during inspection.

I want to break norwegian record in BLD (even though I compete for Macedonia). I was sooo sad at Norwegian Open, I just choked.
