[Cool Frog]

Inspired by Cool Frog, 6:17.44.

My lol method, Roux block, Petrus block, CFOP, EO, CP (fail), CP (success) Z perm? (Nope), LSE, H perm? (Nope), Z perm and done.

 

[whauk]

ZZ and OH becomes better:
single 11.02 (PLL skip) 12.30 (EO skip) 14.41 (nonlucky with ZBLL)
avg5: 16.12
avg12: 17.47
avg100: 19.33

yesterday avg100 was 20.52

 

[Julian]

Haha, mine was just CFOP with beginners' F2L. OLL and PLL were the most fun (feeling for flush pieces), and cross took me the longest by far.

Oh, and by the way, R U R' U R U2 R2 U' R U' R' U2 R is a Z perm.

Also, an accomplishment: 12.40 NL

That depends if he uses STM or HTM.

No that would only affect movecount, M is still legal notation in HTM, it just counts for two moves.

8.54, 8.82, 8.50, (12.36), (7.43) = 8.62

lolololol. PLL skip, nl, nl, nl, PLL skip =D

Edit: rolled

8.54, 8.82, 8.50, (12.36), (7.43), 9.73, 10.42, 9.43, 11.93, 8.54, 9.95, 9.16 = 9.50

2x2:

Last 5 solves are 4.06 avg5

I should probably learn the rest of CLL (currently know U, H, Pi and a couple of random cases )

That's ridiculous. I got a 8.7x avg yesterday with one really easy scramble and a pll skip. It was like: 6, 10, 8, 9, 9. I need to widen the gap again :<

It's only 0.05 atm (for avg of 12)

 

[Pandadudex96]

Woke up at 6:30 to solve 7x7 for the fourth time and I finally got sub 15 lmao (fail)

 

[JonnyWhoopes]

No that would only affect movecount, M is still legal notation in HTM, it just counts for two moves.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that M (in HTM) was just shorthand for R L' x'. Wouldn't that make it two separate turns of different sides? Then, when you add U... Of course that all depends on if it's shorthand.

 

[Sebastien]

Take R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2.

I think we agree that it is 2-gen, even if I can write it as Lw F' Lw D Lw B Lw U' R' U' R2.

 

[JonnyWhoopes]

I would agree, however the wide notation is shorthand for a single side moving, and then a cube rotation. I was trying to distinguish that any slice notation is expressing TWO separate sides turning (meaning a slice move is 2gen within itself).

Bahahahaha. 3, 10 were PLL skips, 12 was an OLL skip

Apparently not my PB =(

Perhaps you should go relearn the definition of a generator. <(R L' x'), U> is still 2gen. MU algs are 2-gen. It is not debatable.

Here's fun 2-gen Aperm: R' D2 R U R' D2 R U R' D2 R U2 R' D2 R.

Here's fun 2-gen Aperm: R' D2 R U R' D2 R U R' D2 R U2 R' D2 R.

I'm going to make the unnecessary comment for those that are generator-impaired; this is <(R' D2 R), U>


anyway, two accomplishments, one cubing related and one not.

1. Finished learning 2x2 CLL.
2. Learned the entirety of Calculus AB in 7 days.

No need to get touchy... It appears it's quite obvious that I didn't know everything about this subject, and I made no claim in my conversation of having such knowledge. In fact, my first post was apologetic to that point. I suppose I shouldn't have assumed that the commonly asserted definition of 2gen was correct. Meh.

tl;dr
Everyone here needs to lighten up.

Coming back down to Earth with my OH times, I think I just got really lucky with those sub18 averages a few days ago. This is a little better than average for me, but the real accomplishment is the worst time . (Also, a 0.34 SD, which is pretty good for me)
