Yesterday I got my first sub 1:30 megaminx single: 1:29.78! I got an easy star, pretty much every F2L pair built itself and my lookahead was exceptional throughout the solve and it finished off with a star CPLL.
I also got new 3x3 PBs this morning:
ao50: 16.61
ao100: 16.74
My first sub 17 of both, and I got my fourth sub 12 single: 11.95. I hadn't gotten one in a while but that's my first one with my new GAN 356 X. My performance was about the best it's ever been today and I think it's cause I was watching Max Park's latest video and it motivated me.

Just beat my previous record with an insanely low move count!
From 8.68 to 8.39

Results from Southeast Texas Winter 2019: http://cubecomps.com/live.php?cid=3847&compid=9
Highlights:
Getting overall feet single and average by a lot.
10.99 3x3 average (previous official PB was 12.92)
Making blind second round.

This was my first 2 day competition, and IMO my best result wise.

 

[Jarredsox]

Broke many 3x3 PB's today:
Ao5: 10.808
Ao12: 11.182
Ao50: 12.189
Ao100: 12.692
Ao250: 12.857

Also, I got a 10.889 Ao5 as the first five solves of the day. Both that and the 10.808 are my first sub 11 ao5's.

E: did some more solves and brought ao100 down to 12.522 and 250 down to 12.839.

How long have you been Cubing?

 

[Ordway Persyn]

How long have you been Cubing?

Nearly 5 Years, though for the past 2 I haven't cubed consistently (something I want to change this year).

 

[GenTheSnail]

Got 2 sub 11 OH solves a couple days ago, about 15 solves apart.
Both had a sune LL with AUFs.
RIP sub 10

I also got a 30.94 Feet single the other day, missing my PR by .01. I also choked a little on the AUF and missed a sub 30, one of which I don't have yet.

 

[TJardigradHe]

Recently, I got my first sub 30 single for 4x4 (unofficial).

Also, at Hudson valley winter 2019 (a week ago), I got my first official sub 40 4x4 average
At the same comp, for 5x5, I almost beat my overall pb single and got a 1:08 and a 1:18 average, both of which are amazing for me. For pyra at the same comp, I got a 3.07 average, which is not too good for me, but at least it's my only event so far to go in top 100 in the world.

mega ao100: 1:31.8x → 1:28.288
777 ao50: 4:23.x → 4:21.x

No big drops, but I'll take it. Partially hoping I can magnetise my Wuji and then get sub-4:10 with it, although that seems a bit too optimistic.

OLL: F R U R' U' R U R' U' F' (F double sexy F')

literally what is the point of the parenthesised text

Also, go troll elsewhere. We're not going to fall for your obvious ruse.

Recently hit the milestone of cubing for 5 years! Started speedcubing in late 2013.

PLS DON'T GIVE HATE
Yes this solve is legitimate this is a csTimer scramble. I'm sorry I didn't film it or have any real proof of its validity, so I hope you all can trust me on this one. Also I do have a picture of the time, but apparently the file is too large for the server to handle, so if someone could tell me how to fix that that would be great. I feel like people will take this seriously if they're shown a picture.

Also pls like and share (if thats even a thing here lol I'm new i only made this account so I could post this) so this can get publicity and get recognized as the legitimate world best single that it is.

No offense, but this is an absurdly fast time. I an not entirely convinced its real, but it may be so congrats. I know you are a fast cuber (im shaun from penn cube day) and you could get this time. I know how you feel because when i got my 0.32 2x2 single,(not WB because that aint a thing apparently) i was expecting some hate because thats really fast. Maybe its me being skeptical and a little jealous, but im not super sure about this

Edit:made worse by our young age

The community largely doesn't care about 222 singles because it's literally a matter of getting a 4-move scramble and then executing the solution really fast. It's not interesting. Maybe you are the world best. But nobody cares, so it doesn't matter.

Don't take this negatively or anything. If you want something that the community recognises… work on something the community recognises instead! Like, legitimately get good at 2×2×2, be globally sub-1.5; I'm sure people will start paying attention to you if you can manage that. It's not going to be easy, because of course it's not going to be easy; otherwise everyone would already have done it.

Edit:made worse by our young age

The cubing community is full of kids. There is absolutely nothing special about being young here.

Also, the thing about kids telling tall tales is that sometimes the lies are really obvious to those with more experience. (This is obvious with a moment's thought—we've been here for longer, we know the tell-tale signs, etc.) Mr. Rubric's post is exactly one of those. I'm not going to mention in public why I'm so confident that they're lying, but you'll have to take my word for it that I usually err on the side of caution rather than calling people out.

ok this is epic

*COUGH* Leo Borromeo *COUGH*
I respect your scepticality of my time despite my disagreement (I mean obviously). People can believe what they want to and I’m proud of my time nonetheless. Also saying that you won’t explain why you are skeptical makes it just seem like you’re doing it just for the sake of it.

Edit- You talk about 2x2 single being unimpressive, but Shaun never necessarily said his .32 was impressive. It was fast, but there’s a difference between fast and impressive. So really you’re arguing with a claim Shaun never made. -\_(-_-)_/-
