Is that 14 4x4 solves with dp in a row??

Getting double parity on my official 2:05 6x6 single was pretty unlucky, that could have been sub-2 :'(
On a more thread-related note, I got parity on 9/10 4x4 solves at that same competition. The one solve I didn't get parity, I popped.

Me, when I was using a GuHong v1. 50 or so.
Good or bad? I like f-perms.

How do you even.. Were you playing baseball with it or something?
And yeah, F perms are bad. You don't realize how much they can mess up a solve. They can add like a half second..

F perms are one of those things I like, but I'm bad at. More than once I had a sub-9 F2L+OLL, and the solve was sup-11 after an F perm.

some teamsolves with a friend at work. 2 times R U2 L' U' L U2 R' forcing LL-skip within a week. :|

As you're doing WV to skip OLL, it's only really a PLL skip.

Eh, I'd call it a forced LL skip.

That was my out-of-box first turn with the Shensu.

Although I think people generally would call it one...the permutation skip was not forced, so I wouldn't call it a forced LL skip.

Thinking of it that way I think you're right. But if you maybe did FRURUF into a WV case that you knew would skip, that would be truly forced I'm pretty sure.

Nope. I like oll skips when I force them
Forcing OLL skips makes me feel so boss for a second. Mats must have the greatest life..

lol. I think he got bored of them a long time ago. I wonder how often he gets LL skips. About the same amount as most people get OLL skips? I know when I do OH I should get LL skips 1/108.
I love it when I use a COLL that I know will give me an EPLL skip, or get an easy 2GLL in a 2H solve. Sometimes you can even tell when OLLs will give you a PLL skip (e.g. wide (anti)sune; first half of the normal Y perm etc.).

Yeah haha I hate when I anticipate it and then get an N or j perm lol because the OLL Case before N J and skip all kinda look the same..

I have had 8 CLL skips in the last week or so. That also had PLL skips. And all the same case. OLL 57.
Also I just did a 23 solve session with roux for fun. The way I do L6E is terrible it's finish F2L 2 look ELL. Which mean I finish with a EPLL. Like a COLL ZZ user would get. I got 4 U perms in a row followed by 3 PLL. So in the case of a COLL using ZZ user. The chances of a streak is increased greatly.'
Also I think the 2 ll skips I had on 5x5 were with in a week.

Yea, I never usually hate J perms, but even sometimes after OLL they look like skips, except one sticker which I don't notice until it's too late
