The Lucky or Unlucky Records Thread

I had 5 DP on 4x4 in a row on SLS Swierklany 2013

 

[guysensei1]

I had a solve with 3 F2L pairs done and an easy insert for the last one. And then it popped before I finished. I would have gotten my first sub-20 solve. D:

Am I the only person who prefers OLL skips to PLL skips??

OLL Skips have the potential to kill my solves, actually.
After a PLL Skip, you're done.

Full ao12 just now with DP

Sorry haven't updated yet. I'm starting to see what kind of records people are posting to see how to organize them or if there's a way to fit them on a list at all.

I've had the very same LL case in a row twice. It was a Bowtie OLL case with a Y-perm which sets up to be a J-perm. With a setup move and a few cancellations, I got this algorithm for the case: R2' F' R U R U' R' F R U' R' U R

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

Yeah. That average was like a 49 average.

 

[AlexMaass]

I use ortega corners first and I average about 20-25 seconds and I got a 14.84 solve, my PB outside of comp is like 13.8x, hand scrambled though not by me, so I pretty much beat my PB in a competition.

What about most skips in a 3x3 official avg because in the finals of Nz nats 2013 because I got an PLL skip and OLL skip.

Forcing OLL skips makes me feel so boss for a second. Mats must have the greatest life..

lol yup.

Mats would win.

 

[TDM]

Mats would win.

How about skips have to be unforced to be counted? Otherwise they aren't that lucky.

That has been stated earlier.

4 N perms in a row. This just happened while I was waiting for physics to start. I just don't even.. Wat

 

[ILMZS20]

i once got 5 pll skips and a oll skip in one day. i was cubing a couple of hours that day but it still felt like "omg another skip wtf" lol

 

[sneaklyfox]

I lost internet for over a week but I'm going to work on updating the first post. Also, I added a few "Most # of X within 100 solves". Just do 100 solves and see how many you get... because sometimes I feel like I'm the unluckiest person ever.

 

[aashritspidey]

Ive had 110 pll skips in like 2 months..

 

[cmhardw]

The luckiest thing, objectively, that's ever happened in my cubing happened during a Fridrich solve. After solving the cross and two adjacent F2L pairs, every remaining piece on the cube was in its correct location, though not all were oriented properly. There was no AUF required, either.

The probability of this occurring is \( \frac{1}{259200} \)

 

[notfeliks]

My first six solves today were G-perms.

 

[Jack Stirling]

How do you get so many LL skips? I don't think I have ever had ONE! Maybe your scrambles aren't as good as myne?

 

[moralsh]

on my last comp (spanish championship) I had a G-Perm in all of my solves (5)
