i`ll try to film a good average

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

6:27.19 6 sided megaminx ball single lol, if practised, it could be sub 3 easily. What is UWR btw?

 

[Rubiks560]

woah. Never even heard of you. Looks like my UWRs are finally done with. Nice average!

 

[United Thought]

444 PBs:

Mo3: 54.43 = 58.38, 53.96, 50.95
Ao5: 56.49 = (50.95), 58.63, 58.67, (1:00.77), 52.17
Ao12: 58.03 = 58.38, 53.96, (50.95), 58.63, 58.67, 1:00.77, 52.17, 1:00.05, 1:02.97, (1:03.58), 57.62, 57.11

+ 2 session means of: 1:00.71(32), 1:00.09(37)

still not sub1.

woah. Never even heard of you. Looks like my UWRs are finally done with. Nice average!

He has also had 2 official sub 2 solves ever. I wouldn't be so quick to believe a 1.49 average but I'm guessing you just don't want to seem like a prick

 

[Basil Herold]

Thanks! I know, i'm not famous because my official avg isn't that great (2.50) but i've only been on two competitions...

But both sub2s were done at the same competitions and that was some months ago when i wasn't sub2

Look at rami, on a competition with three rounds (in my case only two): he did't get a sub 2 single and his best avg5 was 2.40.
But on his next competiton (4 months later) he got his 1.69 WR.

Pedro da Silva 5x5 53.01 SAR single + he improved SAR avg 3 Times in 3 rounds lol

 

[JustinTimeCuber]

This seems sort of realistic, because look at this:
37. (0.715) * U F' U R U2 R2 U2 R2 U'
This can be solved in 5 moves:
U' (prepare green/yellow/red corner for insertion)
R U' (setup corner)
B (place green/white/orange corner in its spot)
R' (finish insertion of corner, LL skip)

However, what if all scrambles are similar?
43. 1.862 * U' F' U R' F2 U F U2 R' U2
After playing around, I couldn't find a really easy first layer solution, or an LL skip.

What I think makes these believable is the fact that the fast times have easy solutions, and the slower times don't.

Edit: The amount of LL skips might be suspiciously high, but there is a chance of it happening, and it isn't like 1 in 100,000,000,000,000 or something. The chance might be in the range of say, getting an LL skip at a competition. The odds of that are .03% in one round, .06% in two rounds, .10% in three rounds, and .13% in four rounds. Do we accuse people who get LL skips at competitions of cheating? I haven't worked it out, but getting several last layer skips on 2x2 (1/162, or about 0.6%, for each one) may be a comparable chance given 50 solves.

 

[Isaac Lai]

Even though there are many reasons to say that this is fake, I think I am willing to believe you. Two rounds of 2x2 three months ago is nothing to go by. After all, a 2.5x average is possible even for people who know full EG if the scrambles are bad.

On that note, do you know full EG?

 

[G2013]

amazing

 

[Antonie faz fan]

This guy also claims he has a 1.6 avg 100 with his slowest time being a 2.2..... I do t k o what to believe here

 

[Tim Major]

Just get a decent video up, I'm sure your progress and times are possible, to me it's hard to believe but it's also partly jealously that you could get slow->UWRs so quickly

 

[Basil Herold]

Antonie, i can't remember that i got that... But anyway, i'll try to get a decent avg12 up, but i'm not at home from tomorrow to 15.7 so i won't be able to record some solves
I know full EG and LEG-1.

 

[Rubiks560]

Yeah I noticed. Didn't want to just assume it was fake and start a war.

 

[AlexMaass]

eh its believable for me

helicopter cube UWRs I guess:

32.72 DF DL FL UB UF BL DR FL UB UF FR BL UF FL UB DR UF BR DL FL DB UL BR DL BL DB UL BR DR UF UB DF DL DR UL UR FR DF DB FL

Spoiler

UWR was 34.00, I got 34.36 and 34.75 before this. Very irritating
reconstruction:

(41.01), 41.50, 44.71, (48.23), 43.90 = 43.37
(40.87), 57.76, 45.10, (59.44), 41.01, 41.50, 44.71, 48.23, 43.90, 46.96, 50.75, 40.87 = 46.08
also 53.81 ao100

 

[CubeCube]

I believe this. I better start practicing lol

Or even better, Lucas. He got his first sub2 single at the same comp he got 1.88 average (I had 2 or 3 sub2s before my 1.69).

EDIT: But I do wonder, is this stackmat?

 

[qqwref]

Do we at least know these were done with stackmat and not keyboard?

Woah GJ. Even if you can't get a good average, can you film anyway? I love seeing 1 looks and stuff like that. Even if you had a bad average, post it; I would enjoy seeing Full EG and LEG being used. It would be cool.
