Further on, I can type my 3x3 blind pb with just four digits. Finally...

Nice Arvid, was it 59.99? Or why don't we get the time?

 

[TMOY]

Maybe because he has no new PB but a new way of typing his current one requiring only four digits

 

[Yes We Can!]

Just get a 1:xx.00 time and you can leave the 00 out

Or it could be 9999 seconds, or 99:59...

59.93

I must say it feels good, but I kind of lacking motivation now after.

What kind of talk is that? Beat me at 4x4BLD or 5x5BLD or Multi (or do a 6x6BLD).
(And do update Kubranking )

No, the next step is to do it in competition!

Sweetest lucky scramble I've ever seen! I know it's (outrageously) lucky, but I've never done this before even on a lucky scramble, and it's sooo awesome.

1:10. But I'm rubbish. Tried to do BH(ish) corners, and I think I lost time overall doing that

Miiiiiike sub1.

Yeah, but you try that scramble. I suspect you'll enjoy your sub-30. (Even knowing that you're out of practice.)

 

[amostay2004]

41.12 DNF..rushed it too much..didn't realise there was another 3 cycle of edges =/

 

[MiloD]

wow I got 51.49. I wish I could count it as a pb. Still feels good though and I'm glad I didn't screw it up.

Still trying to beat a non-lucky 1:24. I had a couple of 1:17 dnf's this week so I think it could come soon.

 

[MatsBergsten]

Lucky or not?

Is the norm maximum 20% pieces solved from start.
So on a 3x3 you allow 4 pieces to be solved and the scramble is
still considered not lucky?

I don't know that there's a published rule anywhere, but I always thought 4 pieces seemed quite lucky on 3x3x3. So I go by the rule that anything 20% or more solved is lucky. Meaning there can be no more than 3 pieces solved on a 3x3x3 in order for it to be nonlucky.

POP at 25s with 2 3-cycles to go.

Awww. You were obviously very close!

Ouch, because I had 1:03.52 on the third weekly this solve. 24 sec memo.
Then maybe I shall consider it lucky. On the other hand I just smashed my
new 5x5 PB. Yesterday morning I made a 19:46.16 on the first weekly 5x5BLD.
This morning I had that 1:03.52 on the 3x3 BLD. Now I have
done the others and started on the "normal" scrambles this week and on
number two I got 16:54.55!!! Memo 9:25. So exec in only 7:30.

It looks like the intense practice the last weeks (several solves a day) is
paying off! (I also had a 6:50 dnf in 4x4 BLD )

 

[Sakarie]

Wow, that's just great Mats! Gratulations!

(Turned out my hotel had free wifi )

And I'm still not faster than Spef >:|

The fact that I can execute (after practicing) the solution sub-11 means that this scramble is silly.
