Whoa, congratz!!! so bad that this competiton wasn't in e.g july you woulda gottan a WR, and now it's not even a CR

Thanks I know, even CR is going to be a little difficult now.

Massive congrats Lars! I'm scared for next weekend now

Thanks again It will be an interesting fight for the podium, with 3 people sub15 within the last month. I'm not too happy about the massive amount of BLD on friday, with 5x5x5 being the last part

Odense Open today I did 5x5x5BLD in 14:44 (7:30) first attempt.

Congrats Lars, great solve! Especially for in competition!

I did talk a bit to Ron about this. In the end it wasn't possible for things to be moved, so we'll just all have to deal with it - I don't like it either, but at least we're in the same boat as each other!

5:27.07 [2:20.15] 2nd scramble of weekly comp 2010-39. Not really an accomplishment as it's 30 secs from my PB, but I wanted to say something about the scramble.

Spoiler

I can't be 100% I scrambled right as I haven't checked it yet, but it was the weirdest 4x4 scramble I've ever seen. 2 checkerboard blue/green centres opposite each other, and the other 4 centres each had one of each colour on. This gave me a choice of 8 different orientation all with 8 centres solved. The one I chose had 5 (yes 5!) edges solved. The 20 secs I spent choosing my orientation was probahly worth it in the end

3rd scramble of weekly comp 2010-39

Wow!

 

[MatsBergsten]

Odense Open today I did 5x5x5BLD in 14:44 (7:30) first attempt.

Nice Lars!

 

[Keroma12]

First BLD attempt in a few weeks, done in physics class because I was bored. Was probably around 8 minutes. Not bad for so many distractions.

 

[That70sShowDude]

First BLD attempt of the day.

L R' D' F2 D L2 F2 U2 B' D L2 R D U B2 F2 D B2 R2 F' L2 R2 D' U' F'

0 corners and 0 edges correct!

I finally figured out what I was doing wrong on parity solves. This solve didn't have parity though.
