2010 Oklahoma Open

- cubes > girlfriend.

I told you this was nowhere near being a true statement. At least for me, I would give up cubing without even thinking about it for my girlfriend.

Girlfriend << Cubing

...and no, that is not a bitshift.

What's a bitshift?

It's what makes 7 into 3, 1, and 0. 8 and 9 into 4, 2, 1 and 0. 42 into 21, 10, 5, 2, 1, and 0....

Results are up.

 

[RyanO]

Weird, I can see the competition results but my times don't show up on my WCA profile.

That's common, don't worry about it. I have the same problem. It'll update itself pretty soon.

Btw Ryan, barely sub 10?! Simply unacceptable. I expect better from you day after tomorrow.

 

[RyanO]

Ryan, barely sub 10?! Simply unacceptable.

I agree!

 

[Hiero]

They show up if it's your first competition but not if you been to one already. Looks like this competition wasn't too nice to the blindfold solvers.

My times personally sucked, except for a 2:29 single on 4x4 which isn't that bad for me. The 15-second inspection thing kind of got me and also being nervous.

You should try to always inspect under 15, and nerves wear off after a while. Sub 25 next time.

 

[RyanO]

My times were really bad too. I've been to 4 competitions and I've never really been nervous, but for some reason it really got to me this time. Only getting two hours of sleep may have come into play aslo.

 

[The3point14]

It's 10:24 on April 22, 2010 and OU, I mean Joshua Lambert, still sucks.

OU was actually really nice and I really don't have any school spirit so I'm just being stupid.

But I am going on a cubing hiatus for a while, I'll be at the competitions, but I doubt that I will pick up a cube more than twice until then.

Holla Holla.

 

[Anthony]

Since you're laying off the cubing, I expect your biceps to double in size by the next time I see you.

You got it.

STUFF:

I didn't realize I did better in the 2x2x2 final than the first round! 5.77 official avg5 is good enough for me Some singles should have been better. But next time... Oh and: I didn't realize how little time was left before this competition when it suddenly was days away, so I didn't finish CLL. Next competition will be RAWR though.

also Justin getting a 5.08 avg in the final is WOW.

I didn't realize my first round 3x3x3 avg was as close to my second round avg as it was. (15.43 round 1, 15.33 round 2) Sub-15 for sure next time though, maybe even sub-14.
Too bad the finals didn't go too well for most of us.

I thought I sub-40'd the first OH round... oh well, I still did well. 1 32 and 1 38 happened in both rounds. .

Pyraminx was decent. I practiced the days before, but not much right before. It's fine, it was my first time competing in it when I actually owned one. XD 4 competitions lol.

Since I couldn't really practice I didn't want to waste time and compete in 4x4x4. I had good singles at the last comp. But then I checked my average and I could've beaten that FOR SURE. Round 1 last time was mean of 3 I did great on, the finals was a fail. Bleeeeeehhh...

Ironically, I didn't practice square-1 at all, and I HAD to compete. If I had done just a few solves to practice beforehand, it would have helped. MAYBE I could've gotten 3rd, instead of 4th. Oh well, next time... at least Woner scrambles really fast. O_O

So yeah... the summer competitions coming soon.

 

[DavidWoner]

I just realized how mad I am about my sq1 avg.

 

[Weston]

I just realized how mad I am about my sq1 avg.

You love me.

 

[IamWEB]

At least you got your best average in everything, including that.
Well, that is 'at least'...

Come to the next TSC comp and you'll sub-15 for sure.

Too bad that's like 49 hours away.
