Wow sub-16 at last, a whole 3 weeks after my previous best ave 16.18. Beat it by half a second too

 

[Speedy McFastfast]

I got a sub19 average of 5, but then once I kept on going I got times like 23... WHY CAN'T I BE CONSISTENT???

38.90 average
Petrus OH with COLL + EPLL

Heilige Torte! How many algs do you know? I use Petrus, but I never bothered with COLL It doesn't seem worth it to me, the reco looks too slow.

38.90 average
Petrus OH with COLL + EPLL

Heilige Torte! How many algs do you know? I use Petrus, but I never bothered with COLL It doesn't seem worth it to me, the reco looks too slow.

Like most things cube you get better with practice. Some of the algs I recognize almost instinctively close to as easy as an OLL. For me the only ones I have trouble recognizing (and don't use because of it) are the Sune algs. But i may get them down eventually. I know ~50OLL PLL ~30-35COLL so not that many algs.

 

[Kenneth]

AKA Lofty, the Sune cases are the only slow ones after some practice.

I have a lot of practice doing CLL, COLL, ZBLL and EG (all uses the same recognition) so some of the Sunes are instant to me and the rest are getting faster, someday all will be fast, I'm sure, just more practice.

But that's not why I got to this thread, I was about to post a record


3x3x3 OH 3(5)

53.14z (52.26z) (56.68) 53.49z 55.78 --> 54.14

z marks cases where I used ZBLL. The worst time 56.68 was one of my best OH solves ever because it was like the worst cases all the way but still faster than my usual times of around 60 seconds. More ZB's than normaly and a couple of times that are a little faster than normaly and the average gets about 5 seconds better than the standard time of 60 seconds.

I just timed my first megaminx speed solve...it was 6:31.31. It was a lot of fun!

[malcolm]

sub 2 4x4x4! with 1:58.xx. solved the centers in 12 seconds, last two solved themselves. Had permutation parity i think. Is this lucky? because it takes longer for permutation parity than centers...

 

[masterofthebass]

Malcom, fixing the last 2 centers takes like 3-5 moves, so I wouldn't consider that lucky. The rules are something like saving a certain % of moves, and I'm pretty sure that you didn't.

 

[Dene]

New 5x5x5 PB, 3:28.50. This still has heaps of room for improvement.

Nice Pedro, very nice avg. Did you get new springs on your megaminx?

yep

used springs from 2 cheap clone cubes just taped a 1:54, uploading to youtube

First time I've ever gotten a sub 17 on film. Not too shabby

42.16 PLL time attack

I thought I had it on video, but the recording file is 0 bytes...
STUPID FIREWIRE CABLE!

I'm too upset to try to beat it...
