PB or on cam PB? Nice. Sub 9 soon! Im feeling mid 11s today. Lots of 10s and 9s, still mostly 11s, rare 12s with lockups on lse, rare 13s when I just suck. The most common mistake i make is when there is a corner edge pair including dl and i try to pair it with the center and edge, and instead of like D' I do D2 and break the block.

pb is actually 8.0x; i don't understand what you last sentence means. i would normally do something like u' R' u.

scramble: U2 B2 L U2 F2 L' U2 R2 F2 R' U B2 U2 F' R D' B L2 U2 B2
setup to get what i want (just for example): y' x' U' R2 U R'
first block fail: U' L D' R' U' D' B
then i try to continue second: R' U' R' U R U' R' U' M' U2 r' U' r
then cmll: WTF oajsdkfnlaksdnfnaskldfn

so it's just adding an extra D' for no reason? yeah, i never do that.

yeah i sorta forget where the bottom 'bar' i need to insert is and do the wrong D/D'/D2 move and mess up getting 4/6 pieces of the block. Thats now my only complete fail screw this DNF mistake other than wrong cmll.
 
haha, thanks. the lubrication on the inside helps reduce the friction so no fire is possible no matter how fast you're turning.

Yeah such smooth lse... you turn cleanly and actually quite slowly.... I tried an ao 5 wit ur scrambles and absolutely flopped. Got 2 9s with the third and first scramble, then three 13s with the others. Horrible. Wasnt warmed up though. Failing shows how fast Im not. Havent heard from ryan in a while...

he just got a pb average of 12: 10.72; he posted on the facebook group, which reminds me that you still haven't joined.
 
this is actually my fast style. i usually do a slower smooth turning where i don't have as much pauses.

Well obviously I'm turning too fast. Your other vid (think an ao12?) Showed a lot faster turning and berd said ur lse is crazy and u said becuz its inefficient.
 
wow, you're right, i didn't notice i slowed down. but i'm sure my lse is faster now, so probably more efficient.

Yeah its probably 0.3-0.5s faster which is a lot. It looks like that smooth finish cfop solvers get jelly of. then theres 8tps-able sub 1.5 pll... screw that we have this!
