Interesting thing, no rotations in the solve itself...... Pretty neat!

guys guess what just happened i got A 4.20 0n 3x3! here is the scramble D R2 Di F2 U F2 R2 U R2 Ui Ri Ui Ri B U2 B2 Ui B D2 Inspection:Y
Xcross: D2 Pair 1:Ri U R Pair 2:R U2 Ri Pair 3:Yi R U Ri Oll skip, Pll:T perm R U Ri Ui Ri F R2 Ui Ri Ui R U Ri Fi 24 moves 5.71 tps See if you can get a better solution

Thats quite a fast time, what do you average?

Not to doubt the time and scramble (since I know that lucky scrambles can happen) but where did you get the scramble? Something does not see to be quite right and it is a little suspicious. A little more info on the solve/scramble will be needed to believe the time. Especially since you just posted in the "how fast are you at 3x3" thread (and to quote you) "Im actualy sub 23" : https://www.speedsolving.com/threads/how-fast-are-you-at-3x3.74997/page-2#post-1327789 and the other thread that you started called "Mini competition for people that have been cubing for less then a year" you posted a Ao5 of 22.28...and that was at the beginning of this month: https://www.speedsolving.com/threads/mini-competition-for-people-that-have-been-cubing-for-1-year-or-less.74922/#post-1326640

In the end a luck single is going to happen to everyone at one point or another, so I do not care if that is the legit time that you got (congrats if it is) but the only reason I am posting this is to make sure that everything is legit and what you are saying is in no way made up/you practiced the solve a few times before timing yourself, or that the scramble is self made, since it is a really easy and dumb scramble. Please do not take any of this wrong, but rather try to understand from others outside view of this all the slight doubt that others might have, based on your previous posts and this time.

I got a 5:14 PM 5x5 check it out on my channel will be posted in like a week if you're goin to slow and steady this year I'll be there!

I’m going!

 

[Owen Morrison]

i just got a 8.2 average of 5, my pb before this was 9.2!

 

[Apolo]

I'm sub 15 !!! After 6 months and a week I'm so happy !

One ultra-lucky single is reasonable, but getting three sub-6 singles while averaging above 20 seconds is extremely strong evidence of bullshitting.

It's not impossible, of course. Maybe they really average like 8 seconds and deliberately wait 15 seconds to stop the timer after finishing the solve, most of the time. There it would stand to reason that they might legitimately get some sub-6 singles. But is this even remotely plausible? Of course not.

Don't lie, kids. At least not to people who can instantly pick your lies apart.

Additionally, if you still use 'Ri' and 'Ui' to denote counterclockwise turns, your credibility is pretty much instantly shot.

I also think the solution has a few errors in it.

 

[Angry_Mob]

The scramble is literally the solution in reverse, just with an optimal T-perm

That is very fast! Nice job!

 

[icarneiro]

Today: Ao12 20.61 (sub-21)
I'm so close to sub-20, I can't wait to achieve hahahaha

Ladies and gents, we got em

 

[Daxton Brumfield]

Lol when I averaged 23 I could barely sub 2 tperm and even though f21 was just 3 move insertions, I still think it would have taken me a second or two to recognize the next pair. I don't understand what the point in faking solves is but whatever the reason is please don't do it. It wastes your time and other people's time.

 

[aerocube]

14.95 3x3 single
down from my previous pb of 16.17
i cant reconstruct but my f2l flowed really nicely (i often get f2l that flows really good,my worst stuff is on last layer)
OLL was F U R U' R' F' so it was 1 look when i normally do 2 look
i think PLL was Gc perm??? not sure though

 

[icarneiro]

For the first time, sub15 single at 3x3!

My PB was 15.93, and now i got 14.35.

I'm still in the battle of being sub20 ao12

 

[aerocube]

1:11.89 4x4 PB single
down from 1:25.95
everything about the solve was good apart from my u perm,which i took around 1 second to recog and maybe cost me sub 1:10
