reaaaally easy scramble. but who cares about square-1 single anyway, amirite? :P

Scramble: (6,6) / (3,3) / (-5,4) / (-1,5) / (6,-5) / (6,5) / (6,6) / (0,-1) / (-3,-2) / (6,0) / (-3,-3) / (-3,-3) / (6,-3) / (3,6) /

/ (0,-3) / || CS
(6,5) / (0,3) / (1,1) / (-1,-4) / (0,-2) || CO skip and EO
(-2,0) / (-1,-1) / (3,0) / (1,1) / (-3,0) / (-1,-1) / (6,1) || EP

Unfortunately the scrambler that is not random state is a lot more likely to give very easy positions and a bit less likely to give parity (something like 30% I think? instead of 50%). So basically the scrambles are noticeably easier than random. This single is as legit as any single can be, but if you're going to do averages you will really want to use the random-state one. If you're not using Chrome, by the way, it's noticeably faster on that browser.

Nice solve though, it may be easy but you still turn really fast.

I think when I was doing big averages with the old scrambler (and doing cubeshape optimally obv) I was getting roughly a third with parity.

How come you use Polish-style turning? Is that what felt most natural when you started practicing?
 
You're kidding, right Mikel? That guy clearly doesn't know what he's doing, the scramble (in his description) is way too short, and he doesn't even have the solve on video. Plus as far as I can tell his other solves are over a minute (unless this was his first sq1 solve in the session and he had been doing something else before it)...
