Who's going ?

Can anyone sell me a Eastsheen 5x5/Magic/Type-D there?

 

[smskill12]

i might and sure vbut my 5x5 is like kinda old

 

[ThePizzaGuy92]

I'm going.

which reminds me, I broke my OH cube and type-D is terrible for OH [as well as all my other cubes ] so if anyone has an extra [decent] cube for OH and would let me borrow it, lemme know. I'd be quite appreciative.

 

[smskill12]

I thought you weren't ? Darn, now I have to practice the day before, lol.

What happened to trying to loosen a 2H cube ? Type-As are quite good. I can loosen/lend a Rubik's DIY for/to you if you want, for OH it's decent. It pops way too much for 2H, for me at least. Let me know, so I'll bring it, if I make it.

Rubik's DIY is what I used to use anyway, if you'd be so kind? :]

I'll probably buy a new one soon anyway, but it obviously wouldn't arrive in time if I bought it now, unless i way over-paid shipping.

and I loosened my type-a [which i've been practicing with] but it doesn't feel very good for OH, perhaps because it has rubik's pieces [the original pieces are... um... in a baggie somewhere? haha]

 

[smskill12]

ohh i might go with a friend but not so sure

 

[hdskull]

Alex, I can just sell you my Rubik's DIY, it's quite new, if you want to. Overall, I've never had good experiences with Rubik's DIY. haha.

You might want to bring a screwdriver also, so you can set the tension to your liking.

I'm going if nothing sudden happens.

Did anyone else find it odd that Ron Van Bruchem was there? I didn't see that coming. haha

EDIT: Excuse the double post, I didn't realize I was the last person to post in this topic.

 

[smskill12]

His hotel room was 10 miles away and he found out there was a compition so he decided to come and have fun

 

[hdskull]

Yea, I saw him and I was like WHOA, he looks extremely familiar, but I can't recall until like 5 mins later, haha.

 

[smskill12]

do u guys have any videos of the compition

 

[ThePizzaGuy92]

do u guys have any videos of the compition

i didn't record anything, but not many recordable things happened, except maybe the 16 second sq-1 solve

I think you mean things worth recording?

I guess my English is very poor, and it's the only language that I speak.

Well Jeremey Fleischman had a 15.77 non-lucky OH, I thought that might've been worthwhile to watch, haha.

 

[Lofty]

I came to this thread for the express purpose of finding out about that OH solve... I havent heard of this guy before who is he? I am shocked that it is not lucky as his averages were around 23 and 24.

Yea, I was shocked too. That solve, as I recall had a easy cross, could've been sub 20 had I not get so distracted by people cheering for Jeremy, haha.The cross was like R2 F B'. It was one of the easier solve in competition, I think. I got a N perm though, haha. Jeremy goes to Berkeley and learns from Dan Dzoan.
