Pyra was feeling very weird the last few days, I've been using the new Mefferts one for quite a while but the puzzle randomly started to feel really weird. I think I overlubed it and it has made the stickers all strange

I need a new pyraminx - my QJ has been locking up a ton recently. Do you guys recommend the new mefferts speed pyraminx?

I like it more than my QJs, It needs tensioning and lube out of the box but after that it's great, It still locks a bit though and the stickers suck IMO, but it is a durable puzzle and I haven't had a pop on it yet.

BTW, are we mean-ing the averages or all 36 solves?

Mean of the three averages.

EDIT: Should I go for sub8 or sub9? you get to pick! (don't you feel special? )

I put you in sub-9 for now.

Pyraminx is the best

Ohhhhhh... okay, I thought it was a permanent switch from ao12 to ao5. I'm good with switching just that ao5s can get really lucky really easy, so I don't want them every round

Argh. Stupid +2 on the last solve. the tip rotated when it hit the stackmat Wouldn't have made the mean much different though. Would have been 8.69 instead.
Still, SUB-9! I got a couple sub9 ao100s this week, so I think I'll graduate next round and move on to sub8.
