Wow that is ridiculous!

lol, 49.34

4BLD PB: 18:46.53

Had it on video, but it stopped recording just as I put on my blindfold :fp

Weekly comp scramble. First success in over 6 months

 

[TheNextFeliks]

You might want to work on execution, your memo seems good, but execution could easily be much faster.

Yeah. I was going to ask then I saw this lol.

I need to work on my consistency

Edit : mo3 and av5 recalculated

 

[qqwref]

best mo3: 2:44.00 (σ = 3.06)
best avg5: 2:44.80 (σ = 1.78)

I think something is wrong with the timer you're using... I hope you weren't using the latest version of qqtimer.

 

[5BLD]

9/13 multi in 58mins. Okfien its more of a fail, my PB is 10/10 but 13s my biggest attempt

 

[etshy]

yes I was using it , is there is something wrong with it ?

Edit : I think you're right , I calculated mo3 myself and I got 2:42.78 and best av5 was 2:44.76

 

[Iggy]

1/2 multi in 4:39.67, first multi in weeks. Off by an edge target.

Edit: 46.54 3BLD PB on ttw.

No, you're still completely wrong, your best mean of 3 is 3:05.61 (solves 7 through 9) and in fact your best avg5 is the same (solves 5 through 9).

oh I see , looks like I wasn't fully aware of the concept of mo3 , thanks

Edit : I corrected the mo3 and the av5 in the initial post

AHHH! Again! Just BARELY off!!!! 21 (Yes 21) minutes wasted! :/

Quick question, how do you know when your completely finished with cycling everything? By that I mean, how do you know you have hit every single edge or corner when creating the memo for it? I have trouble keeping track of which pieces I have memorized and which I haven't.

And, if someone doesn't mind, could they tell me what the memo would be for this scramble (Speff's letter scheme)? My color scheme is Blue on top, red on front. If that matters. I don't think it does though. Just scramble with your color scheme as the starting orientation.

U2 L2 U L2 F2 D2 B2 U2 L2 U F2 L' F2 U L B' U' L F2 U R2

My memo was:

Corner:
PM BU FS N

Edge:
DW HN JF IM QX B

And the parity fix.

I'm not sure if the error was from memo or negligence of a piece or what...

You have 11 targets if no egde is in place , so if there is no new cycles , you will have 11 targets , for each new cycle add 1 target , so i.e if 1 edge in place and you broke into 1 additional cycle then you will have 10+1 targets , so on general number of targets = number of unsolved pieces+number of new cycles , and the same for corners , except corners have only 7 targets to solve

as for this memo , I checked it and it is right , I guess you missed something during execution

I hope you get your first success soon

You can also check if all the pieces are included by putting a finger on every piece during review (except for the last, since you only have 10 fingers ). Works better on corners though.

I don't know which method is faster but maskow uses this method , so may be it's faster

[JF1zl3]

I've been doing what antoine suggested to check usually lol. It is quite hard to do on edges haha. But I like the more mathematical approach better. That's a pretty nice way to know for sure.

Hmm, I wonder what I messed up on then. I can't believe I had a problem with execution, I do that perfectly under my desk when I am reading a memo for a certain solve.

And I just did another attempt. This time 3 edges and 3 corners were cycled incorrectly somehow.
Oh, I just reverse engineered my solve and found that I had the last target on my corners incorrectly. Shoot. I am going to keep trying until I get it. Tonight is the night it happens. Haha.

Pretty good accuracy. Avg5 is way faster than my PB avg5

but your PB single is so much faster than mine

you got a 6.47 on 3x3 , that's impressive

 

[Mike Hughey]

You can also check if all the pieces are included by putting a finger on every piece during review (except for the last, since you only have 10 fingers ). Works better on corners though.

I actually do this for edges on every solve for 3x3x3. By the time you're down to the last 2 or 3 pieces, you don't usually have to do it for them since you can see and remember them, so usually 8 fingers or so is enough to get the job done.
