WOW. Nice Dan, finally Krazy Kuti has been dethroned from 4x4x4 single!

EDIT: Not that it is particularly easy for him to defend his ex-title >.<
 
No... I just felt really, really on today. I still am around 1:00 most of the time. For my 2 good solves, a couple of edges got preset into the 6 pair situation, so I was able to utilize that. Like I said, I really don't think I deserve it, since that 46 is my PB by over 2 seconds...
 
Dan, do you happen to have my 3x3 final avg?

I had this really annoying 1:36.xx 3x3 BLD DNF today...I memoed really fast (for me--40-45 seconds) and kinda breezed over the EO (I'm a 3OPer)...then all the 3-cycles set up really really nicely and it went by really fast, and I ended up with FR and FL flipped (it has to have been from messing up EO), so everyone in the audience thought the cube was solved but I saw the truth...

Hey Tim Sun, I got a 1.15 magic avg today...you better watch out for me at nationals!
 
hopefully tommorrow if i am as i usually am nowadays ill get the NAR for megaminx(Hopefully!!!)
 
Well I completely failed today with 4x4. the first solve was a 1:00.xx, then the next two solves were 1:20s...WTF I screwed up the centers completely and edges were horrible, BOTH DOUBLE PARITY!!! UGH!!!. 4th solve....INTERNAL FREAKEN POP. I actually fixed it somehow which was amazing, still ended up being a 1:35.xx. The last solve was 1:03.xx

But the good part was that i qualified for bld for nats with a 1:23 bld.

congrats to dan with the 4x4 single WR and avg NAR and jason for the 3x3 avg NAR

...I sub-1 average at home.
 
No, Rowe DNFed his first two solves (both were well over a minute), and his third solve was like 1:32 or something. I was watching him get sub minute solves consistently earlier, too bad...

I just got back from the competition... it was a loooong day. I left my house at 3 AM to make the 5 hour drive to Allentown, competed all day and drove straight back. I'm exhausted, but it was so worth it! It was a great competition. I broke several of my personal bests (53.xx 4x4x4, 19.xx OH), and ended up getting the NAR average with 11.97! The times were something like 12.25, low 13, 10.xx, 11.05, 12.6x. The last solve could have been a bit better... I had a U perm, but I took it very slow because I knew I had the NAR so I didn't want to pop or +2 or anything. It definitely would have been sub 12 if I would have gone full speed there. But I'm not complaining. :) It felt so dang good to finally get the NAR! I've wanted this for a very long time. I've got to practice even harder now though cause I'm sure Harris wants it back ;)

Congrats to Dan for his 4x4x4 awesomeness, and to Mitchell for his 10.06 NR single! It was a great competition.
