New 5x5 time of 7:25. Used a V-Cube 5 for this. Actually of late I'm getting a whole lot better at edge paring now. I now average 8 edge pairs a minute now. It was 5 previously.
 
Haven't done avg12's alot the last couple of days, so I did one now. Turned out pretty good. =)

Statistics for 09-25-2009 15:56:03

Average: 18.20
Standard Deviation: 1.25
Best Time: 16.80
Worst Time: 21.87
Individual Times:
18.39, 17.32, 17.70, 21.60, (21.87), 16.80, 18.02, 18.41, 17.99, 18.48, 17.31, (16.80).

Note the two 16.80's. =)

Best average of 5 was 17.90.
 
I told myself: "Pretend this is a competition."

What happened? Sub-NR average!

Average of 5: 3.64
1. 3.55 U2 F2 U' F2 R2 U' F R
2. (4.20) R U' R U' F2 R2 U' F R U'
3. 3.76 U' R' F' R' F2 R2
4. (3.13) F2 U2 F U' R F R' U R2
5. 3.60 U F2 R2 U F' R' F2 U2 R

You just made me realise that every single solve/average is sub-NR for me, lol.
 
29.88 (lucky) !!

I got to skip EPLL, but nonetheless my previous lucky pb was 42.xx so imagine my surprise!

Cross went really well, I was on top of my game with F2L, and I didn't have any lockups or hard to do turns so.. yeah.

:)

Sorry if I sound like a noob, but EPLL=Edges Permutation of the Last Layer? Right?

If that's correct it wasn't lucky, it was 1 look PLL. =D

Yeah the edges step I got to skip. But I didn't mean to! So I'll go with lucky :)

...I'll tell you what'll be lucky - me being able to get a time like that again! :P
 
If you want to spread Roux and make more people use it, you have to start by being friendly to non-Roux users.

I'm to the point where i don't care about spreading roux anymore. I also don't care about the number of people using it. use if you want, if you don't then whatever. I understand that he's not completely using PLL and OLL, but just the thought of it makes me shrug a bit and not really think of it as roux.

I will be nice to people to make an effort using roux but honestly this is just like all those fridrich/roux hybrids that very few people like (personally I don't). I apologize if I wasn't being nice, I will try to make the effort to be nicer more friendly to beginners. Again, I apologize (I'm in a shit mood)

Are fixing bad edges on roux completely different or the same as petrus. I now know Pogobat beginners (blah), fridrich, key hole, 4 look ll, petrus, zbf2l and i'm wondering if I should learn roux. I want to be able to solve 3x3 using all different methods, and then make a combination of all that works best for me.

completely different.

Roux EO is in the [M,U], petrus EO is in the [R,U]
 
PB lucky single, 7.22:

Intentional x-cross that became an unintentional 2x-cross.

ritin' out solushuns- urdoinitrong.

2xcross= y L' D' F' D' R2
 
Aaggh! I was doing some computer clock and I got a 9.3xx average of 12 and a 6.xxx SUPER lucky single! But then I closed out of the simulator so I don't know my exact times. :(

EDIT: I just did some more solves and got a 6.5874 single and this:

10.593, 10.544, 8.827, (6.574), 9.545, 8.073, 9.354, (12.401), 8.245, 9.467, 8.628, 8.230 = 9.1506!
