2014 Predictions

[ottozing]

2x2 - 1.6x avg by Me, Chris, Ray, Or Bill
3x3 - Low 5 single by Faz or Mats
4x4 - Kevin Costello sweep pls
5x5 - Sub 50 single by Faz with my cube
OH - Avg by Antoine
Pyra - Avg by Drew a few times

All I can think of right now. I'd like to see top 10 for 2x2 get close to sub 2 also

So far the only predictions of mine that have happened were the OH avg one and the one with 2x2 top 10 being sub 2 :tu (Would have been right about me getting a 1.6x avg if I didn't fail 2 days ago oops).

The low 5 single happened. (sort of)

 

[TDM]

3x3 single but sup-5 by Mats/Feliks - if Mats, OLL skip and F perm, if Feliks PLL skip
OH average by Antoine (sup-12)
Maskow said he was going to attempt 50 cubes at Euro 2014
Ollie getting both bigcube singles
FMC sub-20?
And I really hope someone beats the 2x2 average.

Faz had a sup-5 sub-WR PLL skip (EPLL, PLL, same thing really)... but corner twist.
Sup-12 OH average by Antoine happened.
Euro hasn't happened yet, but I can't wait
Ollie got 4BLD WR, still waiting for 5BLD
FMC hasn't happened yet.
2x2 average has been beaten.

 

[LucidCuber]

20 UK cubers with a Sub-10 single.

 

[Mr Cubism]

5x5 - 48.50 +- 0.75…...faz
.

Close enough :tu

 

[Coolster01]

Close enough :tu

Woah that was a good prediction!

 

[Mikel]

Megaminx Single and average need to be broken, I don't really care by who anymore. They're just not comparable to people's averages and singles at home.

[Coolster01]

This is so worth the double post

hahahahahahaha, no

OMG IT WAS A SHOWDOWN!!! They were like .2 apart! Jacob was right!

E: well showdown for second place not wr.

 

[Ulbert]

sub9 OH single I guess, it feels like przemek is going to make this happen cuz of the WR average and the 9.41 ER single

 

[antoineccantin]

Very interesting. I am actually quite surprised about the amount of people that predicted Przemyslaw's WR.

Skewb predictions were way too slow though

 

[kcl]

New prediction, 3.7x skewb WR by the end of 2014

 

[Coolster01]

New prediction, 3.7x skewb WR by the end of 2014

...by jonatan!

...by jonatan!

At least 4 people are capable of it, I'm not pegging it on him.

Jonatan, Drew, Rami, You?

 

[kcl]

Jonatan, Drew, Rami, You?

Yep. Possibly some others but they're less likely.

 

[antoineccantin]

Yep. Possibly some others but they're less likely.

I think it will play out sorta like my OH WR. In about a month, I'll lose it to someone how we all think can easily beat it by a little (Rami). Then, more of an underdog will come up and properly destroy it (Jay).

edit: Either that or the obvious Polish guy who had the record before (Jonatan) will beat it again by a little, then a seemingly random Polish guy will come out of nowhere, destroy his official average, and the WR at the same time.

Looking at Przemek's official results, he could do the same trick with skewb...

 

[G2013]

Sub 20 WR of 4x4 by Sebastian Weyer
3x3 I would like a sub 5 or a 5.54...
2x2 single by Rami Sbahi or Lucas Etter
MultiBLD 50 or more by Maskow
