Two sub-3 minute times! :D I'd be happier about this if I wasn't looking at Frank's average right now. <_< :p

Heh, not bad, considering that I started 5x5x5ing yesterday :)

And yea, Frank, your average is disgusting. No one should be that good ;)

AVG: 2:55.97

The 2:35.88 was exceptional for me since it was with parity. Other than that I'm not too happy with my times. :angry:

Timed with 'The ultimate Rubik's cube? timer version 2.1'. Normally I am much faster, but I don't have a good 5x5x5 cube at this moment. I have two eastheen 5x5x5 cubes: one is TOO loose (I used this cube) and the other is not loose enough for me.
