What is the most unlikely thing that ever happened to you?

[Owen]

What is the most unlikley thing that ever happened to yo while doing solve, average, or anything else? I've heard of people getting 3 or 4 PLL skips in a row, and I got a corners skip once. What happened to you?

OLL skip on 5x5x5

I've had three now

It's annoying :x

Isn't it just 1/216?

I was solving a 2x2x2 like normal them when I looked around I saw I had an opposite double x-cross so I just finished the solve CFOP style.

 

[JackJ]

2 LL skips with in 20 solves.

 

[Novriil]

I did two consecutive BLD solves. both were DNF. When I solved the cube with CFOP then I got LL skip on both

I've had a last 4 edges skip on 5x5, but don't know the odds of that lol

Using a random-state scrambler I once got a 3x3 scramble with only about a 1 in 43 quintillion chance.

no... wai....

My cube got run over by a car o.0 does that count?

This thread is somewhat related to this one.

 

[Pseudoprogrammer]

Two F2L slot skips + OLL skip + PLL was just a U perm in the same solve.

Only if you do reducks.

I've had the first 2 centers on a 4x4 done for me quite often

 

[Ryanrex116]

I don't know which of these is less likely, but it is either a cross skip:

Or a LL skip. I have actually gotten two in my life, but only one was on film.

 

[QCcuber4]

im going to stick with my LL skip... OLL skips are rly funny too, whats the possibility for LL or OLL skip?

or also once i got 17.95 3 times in a row. but thats not hazard... more like uber constance awesomesauce.

4x4 LL Skip

 

[Me]

Statistically if anyone has gotten an LL skip on a megaminx that's a really improbable happenstance.

However for me, I set my PR average of 5 with my a terrible OH cube that normally pops 2h..
[(27.11), (14.23), 14.50, 14.76, 14.27] = 14.51.
None were lucky, 3/5 solves had the same OLL.

In a competition where i was extremely tired after driving 500 km and i averaged like 33-34 seconds (my normal avg is about 26-28) i got a extremely lucky/unlucky 18.80 +2 solve.
I remember it was a easy cross which gave me a unplanned X-cross, two more pairs was connected in LL and the last one was just a few moves, then a OLL skip! and finally my favorite PLL -T. The unlucky part was that i got nervous in the end due to the easy solve and throw the cube down with a +2 but i saw this before stopping the time and picked it up and turned it in to a +2 in the other direction and stopped the time :fp

Still no sub 20 in competition

Recently i also got the OLL with all corners and no edges oriented two times in a row, and that is rare i promise

My cube got run over by a car o.0 does that count?

can a car run? O.o that definitely counts! xD

I was waiting on a bus and got these five solves in a row:
LL skip, PLL skip, OLL skip, normal, OLL skip

that's is VERY unlikely to happen =D
