Thanks guys.

Yes Gordon.. no end of the world.. what a big disappointment huh?

 

[lcsbiffi]

Nice average of 100 you're getting close to me agaaain lol

 

[sneaklyfox]

Yeah beaby yeah!!

Chrushed my Ao 100, Ao12, Ao5 and Ao3... What more can I do today to make this day better

Nice going, Marcel! What more to do is also get a PB single...

 

[cowabunga]

Maybe wen some strange guys predict the next end of the world.

Mayans didn't predict the end of the world. Just the end of their calendar and the start of a new era.

Nice going, Marcel! What more to do is also get a PB single...

That's not going to happen this year

 

[MarcelP]

Nice average of 100 you're getting close to me agaaain lol

Yes, I am on a role again. I suspect my times will drop some more in the close future. Lookahead is kicking in...

 

[sneaklyfox]

That's not going to happen this year

You're always so pessimistic...

 

[MarcelP]

LOL, I am supersticious... If I tell you I think I will brake my single Pb soon it will never happen...

 

[sneaklyfox]

LOL... that's ok. I'm pessimistic about my own times.

 

[MarcelP]

Just when I think I can not get faster I brake my Ao5 and Ao3 and almost my Ao12.. Too bad I had a few 40+ in there...

 

[lcsbiffi]

now you got me depressed lol

 

[BenVdd]

very nice ao3 and ao5! wow!

 

[MarcelP]

now you got me depressed lol

No worries Lucas, you are still much faster..

very nice ao3 and ao5! wow!

Thanks!

I have changed something in my F2L technique. Slotting like F' U' F I try to do more Y' R' U' R. Big difference in when you slot on the B face instead of the F face is that when there is an empty slot left it will be in front of you face instead of on the back.

Thomas did a reconstruction of my PB for me. I think I never had a 44 move solve before

Nice. I did it at home and the f2l pairs just popped in front of you :O that's nice.

 

[sneaklyfox]

Nice. Were you trying to do the XCross or was it a lucky accident?

 

[MarcelP]

Nice. I did it at home and the f2l pairs just popped in front of you :O that's nice.

Yes, cool solve huh? I wish they where all like this

Nice. Were you trying to do the XCross or was it a lucky accident?

I could not do an Xcross if my life depended on it. In fact all my solves are lucky accidents.. LOL

 

[ajayd]

For your OLL, I think that the traditional f (R U R' U') f' U F (R U R' U') F' would have suited you better. But still, that scramble is one in a million. Nice job.

 

[MarcelP]

Ohhh had a nice one. Full step solve including two step OLL 17.46 seconds:

These freak accidents seem to occur more often I have been using my Dayen Linyun much lately and broke all my PB's with that cube. After using my Linyun all other cubes feel big and akward


Scramble: D' F2 R2 D2 B2 L2 U' F2 R2 U2 R2 B D F' L' F U2 L' F' U2 R U

Cube: Dayan Linyun

With that scramble, I had an annoying OLL( the one with all of the edges oriented, and 2 corners, with the other 2 as headlights), and then a G perm.
