Nearly all OLLs have the same probability, 1/54.

Do you mean 1/57? Still there are some cases that hardly ever come up like:

Too bad, because I know that one LOL..

 

[mark49152]

Do you mean 1/57?

No there are 57 cases but most are 1/54 probability. There's a few less likely than that because of symmetries. The one you pointed at is 1/216. Shame cos I like that alg!

At the party and happy to say times mostly lower 30s and even a few 20s while competing with nephew and family watching. Good practice lol

haha, that rocks

 

[Lchu613]

good job!

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Thanks! Home now. I even heard people admiringly going "zo hey!" (wow gee) when I was rocking out an algorithm hehehe.


Nephew still uses beginner methods.. no F2L. His times vary from 55 seconds up to 80ish.

I showed him how you can easily match pairs up, so maybe he'll pick something up. Lubed his 3x3 as it felt like grinding rock and when I gave it back to him he was grateful, recognizing the old feel again

If I had a nephew who was seriously into cubing, I would have a much harder time resisting the temptation to buy more cubes. Still... I hope one of my kids will get into cubing. I just need to make sure I have some discipline when it comes to purchases.

 

[Kattenvriendin]

My discipline right now is: no more cubes for a bit.

I have a few expensive cuboids on the way, so.. cubing jar = empty lol

 

[sneaklyfox]

Right... the keyword is "a bit"... whatever that means!... lol...

 

[Kattenvriendin]

That can be very short LOOOL

But nope.. There are not that many cubes that fancy my interest at the moment which is good for my wallet


*packs bunch of cubes, timer, screwdrivers, lube..


oh.. and myself*

Could you please share that table with us?

[Lchu613]

Blargh, my cubing budget is regulated by my mom, and is therefore eternally empty unless I break or lose my cube.
I only have 2 speedcubes at a time (my ghosthand and whatever dayan/fangshi I happen to have), and a few modded rubik's brands.

I ordered a SS 4x4 though, it'll be fun learning to solve that!

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Because I did so well.. need to double check exactly HOW well, but that news will come.. I bought myself a present.. 'cause in the email inbox:

http://www.v-cubes.com/ecom/product.php?productid=16208&cat=0&page=1


And now I am REALLY not buying any more cubes.. arghh lol

[Kattenvriendin]

Yes we will!!! Racing is so much fun!

 

[Crazycubemom]

Yes we will!!! Racing is so much fun!

We have always FUN if we meet each other ") Timer to practice harder babe, Goal next competition sub 30 avg!

Good LUCK

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Yep.. practicing is going to continue. Sub30 average?? Ehhh I got 37 here.. so I am thinking 32 is feasible in two months time.

But.. wait and see! The single a sub30 should be doable, yes. I got them often enough when warming up!

 

[Lchu613]

And I have yet to go to a WCA competition... sigh

 

[Kattenvriendin]

You will.. some time in the future
