So...Guildford challenge - Sameer, Evan, Corny?
Current UWR is 3:51 ish for 4 people, and 4:21 for 3 people (with magics instead of skewb). That was Me, Rob, Chris (and Mollerz for 4 people).

Definitely would like to try many times! It'll still come down to the 7x7 solve(r) as usual though.

I'm back for this does the Guildford challenge include BLD? Because BLD + FT = CHJ
Edit: no because doing FMC is silly

Guildford Challenge by definition is doing all sighted, speedsolved events! (Thanks Rob)
Sucks I can't come, silly badminton tournament.

As James said, no, but the equivalent for the BLD events should happen some time. I'm thinking you for 5BLD, me/Dan/CHJ for 4BLD+MBLD (2 cubes of course), then 3BLD by whoever finishes first (obviously I don't go to these meets though). It should really have happened at a comp already.

Sameer - what do you average globally on 6x6 and 7x7 now?
I'm running some optimisations for Guildford challenge
4 person will be Sameer + any 3 of Evan, Callum, me, Corny (yes, we just wait for Sameer to finish his 7x7)
3 person it looks like it's very close between all of us

You're making plans to cube at a London meet? Are you running a fever?

6x6: 2:40-2:45
7x7: 4:00-4:05
I can get good singles on 777 in good lighting so UWR might still be possible for 4-man, but don't hold out too much hope for my 777 skills. 6x6 can be hit and miss but I still get good singles a lot.
I guess I won't be doing 2x2

Hmmm ok. I thought you were faster 
You, Evan and me are all the same at 7x7 then. It think there will be about 100 different optimal solutions to this, especially given that Evan and I average the same on every puzzle (I'm not even joking, just compare our profiles)

i guess for 4-man im doing feet no matter what, just keep me away from pyra and sq-1

Just remember I'm only good at 2-7, so you might not even need me.

This reminds me... would anyone be able to work their magic and make my 6/7 better (lube, tension, switch springs, and/or other methods)? Until then, I'm pretty sure I'd prefer using someone else's; wouldn't be surprised if I even broke PBs with them. I'm very dissatisfied with all my cubes in general.

I have a spare dayan spring set which you can have. I'd be willing to sort out your 7x7 as best as I can on Saturday. For 6x6 swapping springs takes longer as you have to take out more centers to get to the screw so I'm not sure how long that will take/how willing I am to do so.
Although, swapping the springs on a 6x6 is more important than on a 7x7 so...I don't know. I'll do one of them

That sounds great, thanks! Indeed, I think the 6x6 needs it more, but you can feel both to decide for yourself.I have a spare dayan spring set which you can have.

I've tried to do it twice on the 6x6, but both times the cube ended up loose, locky, and unstable - nothing like the ones I've felt which "successfully" had its springs swapped. I haven't done it to the 7x7 due to those failures, and since it doesn't need it quite as much.

Do pyra during feet.

Best way to get to 6x6 screws is to take out "PLL Parity Edges" and then separate the centres each way. That way once you've changed the spring you can just put the centres back, put one set of edges back (4 of them), then do z' and do next spring.
