[Unofficial] 3.07 2x2x2 average of 5 + Fail and 1.58 single (using Guimond)

[Tao Yu]

Sorry,I don't own a stackmat

Sub NR (NR is 3.22)
1. (3.82) F2 R U2 F2 U R U2 F U R' U'
2. 3.28 R' U2 R U R2 F U' R' F' R' U'
3. (2.43) R' F' R' F2 U R F R U' R' U'
4. 3.01 U' R2 U2 R' U R2 F2 R' U R' U'
5. 2.93 R U2 R U' F R F' U' F' R' U'
Using Guimond method
Cube is a shenshou
2.43 had 5 pieces solved already. I used a commutator to solve it.
1.58 was Pbl skip.
First thread
I think I might make a Guimond tutorial in the near future.

nice. i think that I would like a Guimond tutorial.

 

[Egide]

fast solves, and a tutorial would be great.

 

[MrIndianTeen]

i would also like a guimond tutorial. (used to know it, but forgot)

 

[Hershey]

Guimond tutorial

or this one

 

[chicken9290]

nice solves (i should learn guimond)

Nice average! Your orientation+separation are pretty quick. For separation, are you predicting the top+bottom or just the bottom? I normally do just the bottom, unless it's an easy case like diagonals.

..and nice first thread BTW. Guimond definitely deserves more attention than it gets.

Guimond tutorial

The start of Thrawst's tutorial is a little misleading. He appears to start with a side of all the same colour, rather than a side of opposite colours.

Oh yeah you're right. That actually first confused me a little when i tried to learn guimond. I still haven't actually learned the method because I don't solve 2x2 that much.

 

[CubicNL]

Didn't know guimond could be this fast ...

 

[Tao Yu]

Thanks everyone. I try to predict separation for top + bottom as much as i can but not always.
Also Gabriel Dechichi has a 2.61 avg 12 0.0
Who says it can't be fast?
I think in my tutorial I will add maybe better algs and how to predict top+bottom separation .
Maybe some other tricks as well.

hmmm... maybe I should practise 2x2x2 again

just tried the scrambles with guimond:

2.90, (2.53), (10.87), 2.92, 3.31 => 3.04

solutions:

Spoiler

scramble: F2 R U2 F2 U R U2 F U R' U'
z y' L U F' L F L'
U' L' U R' U2 R F' U
TPS: 14/2.90 ~ 4.83

scramble: R' U2 R U R2 F U' R' F' R' U'

x y' L' U R' U2 R F' U
TPS: 11/2.53 ~ 4.35

scramble: R' F' R' F2 U R F R U' R' U'
fail fail fail
TPS: 18/10.87 ~ 1.66

scramble: U' R2 U2 R' U R2 F2 R' U R' U'

Nice. What is your PB? Mine is 2.54 avg 5 (2 pbl skips lol)

For the 3rd scramble i did
scramble: R' F' R' F2 U R F R U' R' U'
U2 R U R' D' R U' R' D'
9 /2.43= 3.7 tps

then I realised after the solve i could do :
y L' U2 L D' L' U2 L D
It seens haven't learned my commutators properly

 

[Carrot]

That's just too nerdy O.O

ehhhm: (0.99), (3.22), 2.71, 1.98, 2.18 = 2.29 avg5, I guess it must have been some really easy scrambles (I haven't got the scrambles anymore for that avg)

 

[Tao Yu]

Woah. Fastest non CLL average?sub ER wow

whatabout EG averages?
