why dont you just keep your times as hh:mm:ss instead of converting them to minutes?

Easier on the typing.

13x13x13 Ao5 in progress..

Easier on the typing.

wut?

surely it takes more time to convert 8:41.623 to 8.693716repeating minutes than it does to type "8:41.623"

Haha yeah, do you mind me asking how you convert fractions of a second into fractions of a minute without typing them in somewhere?

 

[antoineccantin]

Yeah... about that: 42.74 avg12 and 40.52 avg5. I lubed my 4x4 broski. =P

Now get NR.

 

[yoshinator]

Now get NR.

Dude, I'm less than a second away. I'll be sub-40 by summer time, I guarantee it. Also, my single is like 2 seconds faster.

its only one calculation that can be done on any calculator

calculator ---> xx.xx/60 ---> get 0.xxxx33333 or 0.xxxx66666 ---> add minute portion ---> Round to three decimal places' accuracy (Accurate to ±0.03s)

 

[qqwref]

You still have to type that part into the calculator though. So why not just type it onto the computer directly? Same amount of work.

 

[yoshinator]

This is how you know you're improving: feels like a slow/average average, it turns out it's faster than your pb average from a week ago.
45.83 avg12 on 4x4 that felt slow. Sub-40, here I come!

 

[googlebleh]

9.68 3x3x3 Single. Stackmatted.

finally. I have been getting 10 second solves for months now. I must have gotten 30+ 10 second solves before now.
Previous PB singles stand at: 10.10, then at 10.04
[EDIT]
unfortunately, qqtimer lost the scramble. I had it set on "manually enter times" and it replaced the 9.68 scramble with the one before it (when I looked at the scramble history there were two of the same scramble in a row).

However, I do remember that the cross was on red, my last F2L pair was done R U' R' U R U' R' then OLL skip into Gc Perm

13.49 3x3 PB avg12. There was a 12.77 avg5 in it, my 2nd ever sub 13 avg5.

Megaminx PB:
Ao12: 2:57.33
Ao5: 2:51.52

I'm now sub 3!

 

[ben1996123]

calculator ---> xx.xx/60 ---> get 0.xxxx33333 or 0.xxxx66666 ---> add minute portion ---> Round to three decimal places' accuracy (Accurate to ±0.03s)

but... why not just type the time as 8:43.623? its easier to compare to other times and it isn't annoying.

 

[qqwref]

4:06.17 4x4x6 solve, a little lucky at the end.

 

[Akiro]

New PBs :
14.92 average of 100
13.93 average of 12

I usually average high 15s

 

[amostay2004]

Got a dayan megaminx last week and picked up solving megaminx (used to have a mefferts few years back and got to ~3mins average but sold it away). Best avg12 as of today is 2:53 with 2:22 single

Update as of today:
1:51 single
2:17 avg5
2:21 avg12

Only because it's the Lunar New Year holidays and I have more time to cube.

edit: 2:13 avg5, 2:20 avg12. It was 2:20.04..so close to sub 2:20 but failed to roll
