444 avg WR - 41.29 Erik Akkersdijk

[nccube]

wow, when will there be a sub 40 4x4x4 avg?

 

[Rpotts]

That's not faz!

+1

*Sees another world record*

Spoiler

*Sees that it's not Faz this time*

Spoiler

Congrats Erik!

i lol'd

Did anyone else notice the funny misinterpretation of nccube's question due to its ambiguity?

yes

Just wait for faz to get four 4x4 solves without parity error in a comp.
then, BAAAM! new avg WR !

^^ I also thought my WR-days were over. This summer I practiced a bit and gotten a 41 avg of 12 once, but after that all the averages I did were kinda fail.

First round: 36 single, after cross I realized centers were wrong so I had to fix that .... :fp also 42.whatever ER avg then.

2nd round: 37 single, J perm locked it away, I think someone got that on video and will send it to me.

Final: 55 (thought I'd fail the rest too now) OLL par, 41, 41 PLL par, 38, 40 PLL par

Yaaaay
I don't care how long it stands, at least the (almost) grandpa did a WR again

Getting 4 parity free solves in an average of 5 for 4x4 is pretty unlikely.

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

I thought this was about Erik getting the WR, not about Faz getting it back >_<

Congratulations Erik

Lol Erik you are so not even close to being a Grandpa!!! Good job though! Did you wear your hat?!?!

lol.

At US Nats I had 9/10 possible parities in my solves.
My times were:
1:23.58 1:25.68 1:33.09 1:29.47 1:40.36
1:29 avg.

The following weekend at TOS I had 1/10 possible parities.
My times were:
1:06.83 1:06.77 1:13.19 1:11.16 1:07.22
1:08 avg.


Anyway, congrats, Erik!

And I thought that Faz's WR would stay for a long long time...

 

[teller]

Woohoooo Erik!

And I thought that Faz's WR would stay for a long long time...

lol none of faz's records stay for a long long time. They last about 2 months before he beats them again

EDIT: This is ofcourse an exception

Congratulations!

18.75% is unlikely?

No parity solve is 1/4 not 1/2.

 

[cubedude7]

Wow, Faz got beaten. Congratz! Hopefully there will be a video soon.

 

[waffle=ijm]

Why is everyone surprised that faz got beaten? Erik is a good cuber too =)

Congrats Erik!

On the other hand, shouldn't it be a four-way coin?
On the other other hand, there's usually more than one round in a competition.

I have no idea how to ask WA this...

 

[Slash]

Faz just doesn't get 3 of the sum of avg ranks (officially).

 

[Daniel Wu]

Wooo. Congrats to Erik.
