Solved my first 4x4x4 yesterday. Took me 3 hours, but I didn't look up any algorithms except dedge party.

Solved it again today in 40 minutes and 80 minutes. Roughly. Parity sucks though!

I'm right there with you, my PB is 10.08... So close!

 

[Filipe Teixeira]

I have two sub10 and two sub9 but none on camera, only two 10ish solves T_T

My advice to you is, film yourself every session from now on. Then delete the sessions you don't care. But when a sub10 pop out you'll want it recorded.

Got my first Skewb, Pyraminx and 4x4x4 for Christmas. Never played with any of them before.
PB Skewb: 11,86 (Lucky solve, usually around 20-25.)
PB Pyraminx: 54,17 (I'm finding this one pretty hard to wrap my brain around.)
4x4x4: 8:40,55 (Yes, 8 minutes, down from 3+ hours on my first attempt and down from 1 hour yesterday.)

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

and yu sheng's double x-cross was 1 move longer...

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?

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).
