Speedcubing in Melbourne

[Tim Major]

27 team BLD, 33 real team solve, 1:03 Yau super step team solve (too many steps, stupid Joey )

I also got a 54 4x4 solve, no AUF PLL skip, my recognition that it skipped took long enough that Faz, racing with 5x5 saw it in ny hand solved.
Nerf guns are fun, but I am too amazing at them for the fun to last
DaYan LunHuis are like LingYuns, and ZhanChis are just...:O

Edit: 'Jamie Carney isn't going, Zane's guests are someone and James Carney". I then pointed out the similarities in the names...

Awesome meetup.

-Josh is possibly more OCD with stickering than I am.
-ZhanChis are so good.
-59.90 Yau team step solve.
-Cube factory thing: Josh, Faz, Zane, me, each do cross on our own cube then pass to the right. Sometimes 3 cubes were stacked in front of Zane or Josh, (Zane doesn't use white), but we ended up getting a 25.53.
-Same but with just me and Faz, first attempt, we both finished OLL at the same time, passed it across, both had PLL skips with U' off. Forgot to stop timer it was too funny.
-Me vs. Zane 3 cube relay, kept finishing each cube at the exact same time, finished at same time, both with 52.68.
-I won the next 53.13 over 53.31 iirc.
-RCTA didn't come so no footage.
-We had...
Andy: 3x3 and 3x3OH
Ando: 2x2 and 3x3
Me: 4x4
Zane: 4x4
Josh: 4x4
Faz: 5x5
...races, some very close, some 20+s apart.
-Faz and Zane 3bld, me 2bld, overall all had very high success rates, but unfortunately my 2bld was too fast for a good race.

Next meetup we'll do more 'cube factory' team solves, they're a lot of fun.

Sorry, I wasn't sure if it was on since no one replied to Faz's post.

Will the next meet be before or after the comp?

 

[Faz]

After.

"Oh timmajor if you're going to one of those asian places can you get a stamp on my card plz"
"I'm going to maccas"
*Brings back chinese food*
>: (

 

[Tim Major]

xD. But when I decided on the Chinese place, it was ages from our table. Stuff coming back to get the card so you get a free drink.

I'm guessing 2-7, OH, Py, 3bld (and some other BLD, probably not all though), Sq1, Mega, Magic. These are just my guesses.

Hmm, I actually have a mini mat that's in mint condition. There's also one timer laying around in it's packing (yet to be used). o.O

It might be cheaper to do a group order with Speed Stacks though...

Tim.

 

[andrewki]

hmm... maybe. if not how much would you sell me the mat and the timer for?
