How do you react when you get a PB?

PB:8.00 seconds

I ran around the house saying YES! YES! OH MY GOD!

 

[cubersmith]

8 minutes 3x3? Eh I got a 14.44 (PB) the other day and I just did a small fist pump

I never really keep track of my PBs, so I wouldn't know if I've broken one. Although if I get a good time (15-17 seconds for me), I usually do a little fist pump.

I just put the cube down and look at it in shock, but only when its a large difference. every other time is just meh.

 

[stevecho816]

It's exactly 8 seconds

 

[Olji]

I usually just smile.
If it's a milestone beaten (first sub20 etc.) then maybe a small fistpump is included.

Oh sorry I misread that I thought it said 8:00

Pelvic Thrust repeatedly with arm movement thrown in there.

I stopped keeping track of my PB's, but generally when I get a sub-10, I do a small fist-pump or simply smile.

I remember when I got my first sub-10, I jumped out of my chair triumphantly, did a double fist-pump and yelled "YES!" (That's the biggest reaction I've given, though)

Listen to the man, judging by the amount of posts of his in the accomplishment thread - he's prolly getting PBs like every 14 minutes.

lol

I don't even know my pb. I got a sub 10 once, but it was random hand scrambling. It was easy cross and f2l. I wasn't even happy, I was almost annoyed actually, because I felt I hadn't scrambled it enough.

Today I got a 10.00 PLL skip. I just thought "oh, so close to sub 10, damn, oh well". It was a skip, so it's not that amazing. When ever I get nice low 11's full step, I think back at it and try to see how THAT solve was different from all the others. No pauses, not too rushed, great look a head, etc. I try to remember those things for the following solves. For those, I just think "f*** yeah, I'm awesome at cubing, so pro dude", and keep going.


My biggest reaction was when I got my first sub 1 4x4 solve ever. I think it even had PLL parity. It was after numerous attempts, and when I finally got it, I did a small fist pump, got up, walked around for a bit, then recalled the solve to see what I did differently, and try to repeat the feat.

I have it down to a system.

And the accomplishment thread posts have only been recently, you seem to be ignorant of the fact I took a huge break not too long ago.

 

[emolover]

If its an for anything but 2-5 I smile.

If its a single for anything but 2-5 I do a small fist pump.

If its an average I big fist pump.

If its a single in any of those... O MY ****ING GOD!!!!!!!!!!!

[Michael Womack]

[zmikecuber]

I jump up and down and yell OOH AHH!!! :| its embarrassing >.<

 

[04mucklowd]

Just with a small "yea" and then move on
If it is a good pb then maybe a fist pump

I react the best when I break barriers, such as sub 11 on 3x3 or sub 3 on 2x2. Usually "YES!YESYESSSS!"
