I think it’s definitely worth upgrading your cube rather than trying to fix it because thats what you’ll have to do eventually anyway

what do you average for a full solve?

Mine was a TV3 flagship and after a while there was a crack in the plastic where the screw sits so the screw kept getting loose every few solves.

I thought they fixed the issue with the TV3. Mine broke a few months after I got it a few years ago but it was a really good cube. Im pretty sure there is also a replacement core available from the cubicle Edit: the replacement core is either discontinued or they’re not sure when they’re...

Yeah I watch some mentor pilot, green dot aviation and some others because most of the visual is simulation anyway

I actually listen to things like science and aviation documentaries (not the ones that require you to really look at the video) during my solves. Probably not the best way to improve but it’s a decent way to learn things and be productive. But this also doesn’t seem to affect my solve times...

I had a similar problem on my qiyi timer but I opened it up and soldered a replacement button at school which fixed the problem. Im not sure how it would work on a speedstacks tho.

And @LukeKing67 said he averaged 8 so getting two same 4s consecutively is definitely a much lower probability than him getting 2 same 8s

If you wanted to do this the most accurate way you would first calculate the probability of each solve time occurring then calculate the probability of that solve time happening twice in a row. What I put is just giving each solve a equal possibility of happening which in reality is not very...

What I originally put was for if you got solves that were usually within 4 seconds of each other (say you get between 1-5s or 8-12s) but if most solves were within 2 seconds the probability would go down even more (1/2000)

But if most solves are within 4 seconds of each other its still correct

But that is giving every possible number in that range an equal chance which is not very accurate as you’re probably more likely to get a 3 or 4 than a 1

Assuming you have a pretty large range of around 4 seconds, the number of possible outcomes is 4000 ( because of 4x1000 for the 3 decimal places). The probability is then 1/4000 because the first time can be anything and the second time has a 1/4000 chance of matching the first time. So the...

Is there any way to make the background image not look stretched?

Yiheng Wang 3.76 during Australian Nats 2024. (I was solving right behind him)

Thanks. It’s a Moyu wrm v9

The black things are coal (the thing you would use for a fire). Also Thankfully I didn’t use my main for the photos but I did clean the cube after

I occasionally record some solves (mostly for 3x3 and OH) but it’s not really a habit I have. I average around 10 seconds so each video takes around 13 seconds. A video that is 16 seconds long takes up less than 30 mb on my phone but it depends on the video quality and recording time.
