Apparently his use of the table is kind of a "competition nerves" thing. He apparently doesn't use it much at home.

Wat?

Thats great to hear. As long as this was/is being discussed, then thats enough for me.

That is another problem with current BLD regs.

It would look suspicious unless done skillfully. I don't see why it has to look suspicious. Judges also aren't always directly looking under the folder at the cube while it's being solved. 1. So? That doesn't mean that it can't give you a big avantage 2. Thats opinion. In events like MBLD, who...

I don't recall saying anything about popping.

When putting magnets into a cube, one has to take care that the orientation of every pair magnets is correct. If you put a pair of magnets in reversed, then in many unsolved positions, some of the magnets will be repelling while others are attracting. This makes the solved position of the cube...

Maybe it was obvious to Feliks, but I think it's pretty awesome how he chose to do break up the obvious already made pair on the green cross to do a different x cross with a better continuation. Its also awesome how he didn't do the obvious 2nd pair first. I love it when fast solves are fast...

This is actually way more surprising to me

Once again, California is the fastest state for OH. (where the fastest state is the state with the fastest average) California has a pretty good track record with producing good OH solvers. (Had NAR or better) Ryan Patricio (WR single and average) Dan Dzoan (WR single and average) Chris...

95% sure I am going.

You scrub. KiwiKaki was never on liquid. :p

Those were some pretty fun times my friend.

Yes it is live pricing. I am just parsing the HTML content of the search results pages of each of the sites. Right now the results are being sorted by some 'relevancy' metric that I came up with, which is basically [sum of the lengths of words that appear in both the search query and the...
