Had a really crappy day so I did an ao12 to let off steam. And look what happened! Almost PB ao12 and a really good ao5 at one point..

Sub 5 is probably easy if I practice some :P

I suck at big cubes.
Tomorrow I'll try to solve it blindfolded instead. Probably much more interesting.
 
Just solved the 4x4x6 intuitively for the first time. No tut needed. :)
This has been a work in progress over a few days though, because I kept messing up the step where you match up the would-be-6x6x6-outer-centers. I still am not sure how to do that step, I just do (holding the 4x4 sides on top and bottom, and none of these are wide turns.) 2r2 > 2u-or-2u' and/or 2d-or-2d' > 2r2, until the centers are all matched. That step by far takes me the longest. I have yet to find a working pattern for those pieces.
 
So yesterday I did my first timed solves in 12 days, after being on holiday with no internet. I was using my white Zhanchi, which has been my main for about 2 months. Things were going well, so it became an Ao50. No hyper-fast Ao5's or Ao12's, but really consistent, and a PB Ao50 by over a second, from 26.81 to 25.76.

Now I hadn't used my old Guhong for about 2 months, since I got my Zhanchi. I used to really struggle with it, probably because of my turning accuracy. Today I picked up the Guhong and did another Ao50:

Times 49/50
Best: 19.46 worst: 33.08
Best: Ao5 21.51 (PB by 1.11 seconds, down from 22.62), Best Ao12: 23.53 (PB by .48 seconds, down from 24.01)
Session average 24.96, mean 24.84 (PB by .92 seconds)

So in 2 days I've shaved 1.96 seconds off my Ao50 PB! :-)
 
Two consecutive 4x4 PB's. Second was 1:29.38. Other was like 1:36. Double parity on second. On last layer at like 1:10. My first two centers was pretty nice. Last 4 are improving. But first three edges are bad.
 
Just had a crazy 5x5 session. Broke my PB avg5 and avg12

number of times: 19/19
best time: 1:47.96
worst time: 2:11.66

current avg5: 2:04.52 (σ = 2.97)
best avg5: 1:56.63 (σ = 3.51)

current avg12: 2:00.84 (σ = 5.09)
best avg12: 1:59.35 (σ = 4.88)

session avg: 2:01.50 (σ = 5.73)
session mean: 2:01.32

First sub 2 avg5 and avg12. :D
 
Average of 12: 10.72
