Accomplishment Thread

[ajmorgan25]

Just finished learning my last PLL. Finally.

Now I just have to improve my F2L and do a bunch of PLL time attacks so I can get an 18s solve and qualify for the US Open.

 

[rachmaninovian]

whee i broke the 80s barrier for the 4x4!!!!! using centres last hehe

 

[fanwuq]

34.92 OH. Average F2L at 26 seconds. Best nonlucky LL possible. sune, and U ccw.

 

[Lofty]

Almost sub-17 2H average... 17.05 seconds.
But I got a few non-lucky sub-14's and a lucky sub-13 in the full session of 50. I'm done with OH for a long time and I'm done with doing loads of cubing for awhile as well. My left wrist is so stiff relative to my right its not good at all.

 

[Speedy McFastfast]

3:55 megaminx! I haven't played with that puzzle in so long, it's good to get a sub 4 time.

 

[Siraj A.]

I broke my megaminx record with a time of 3:32.75. I beat it by .14 seconds!

Hehe Zac

 

[Harry]

oh yeah, after I get my first sub-1 min, a few days later, I get my first sub-50, very close though, 49.99 then 49.24 and a few days later, I get my 46.27 solve!! Although for that solve, since I sacmbled it on my own, I got the cross pieces in one place so it is kinda easy to solve the cross under 10 secs, but I don't skip any steps and I think my looking ahead is very good. So, it's time to switch to Frid Method.

Frid method, here I come!!!!!

 

[Lofty]

new pb average of 12- 16.64
Since I'm not using my OH cube for OH anymore its making a great 2H cube. Sub-15 here I come! Tho I may want one of those new type-D's to help me achieve that.

 

[Siraj A.]

2x2 record of 2.23. I tried the same scramble for a second time and got 1.55. Too bad that doesnt count, lol.

Everyone try this scramble: R2 U2 L2 B2 U2 F2 L2 F' L' U' B' D' R2 F R' F' R2 F D' L' D' F' D L F

Hehe Zac

All I gotta beat is 3:32? Ok, whatever, give me a few days of practice. How does one week sound? If I win... (I gotta think of a prize, lol)

Edit: Lofty, what's up with the new type Ds? Are they good or something? I haven't checked out stores much, so I wouldn't know.

 

[Lofty]

Ok well in my previous posts I alluded to breaking from OH and was doing just that for the past couple days. But today with Ryan's new WR I started practicing again. So my accomplishment is:
13.31 OH single with a 2LLL my 12.75 had a 1LLL with ZBLL but this was sune + A. A was done sub-2 and sune was done sub-1
Edit: 1.58 first try on that 2x2 scramble but only cause I knew it would be lucky so hit the timer with out checking for U adjustment or making sure a regular sune had worked.
Edit2: I have not used a type D but look around the hardware thread and im sure you find loads of threads on how great they are.

what WR? I can't see the results...

the results aren't up yet but I was messaged by Jun who was at the competition that he broke the WR with a sub-20 average and a 14.xx single.

26.67 avg100 OH:
22.46, 21.90, 26.05, 27.60, 27.07, 24.73, 29.77, 26.27, 22.88, 26.90, 21.65, 29.75, 25.33, 22.93, 27.76, 22.63, 24.96, 23.14, 25.46, 25.87, 26.03, 25.67, 28.46, 27.54+, 24.65, 25.59, 26.98, 25.33, 21.71, 23.81, 23.38, 25.84, 30.20+, 28.50, 28.06, 33.59, 24.20, 21.43, 22.85, 27.59, 22.78, (45.03), 30.08, 25.06, 29.28+, 35.47+, 28.07, 25.08, 24.59, 20.48, 31.47, 25.28+, 27.89, 29.12, 29.31, 24.66, 20.30, 25.38, 26.62, 30.85, 26.03, 25.16, 28.90, 24.28, 27.72, 25.34, 24.87, 31.46, 25.41, 34.67, 30.12, 25.04, 26.68, 29.72, 34.69, 26.17, (16.06), 28.29, 32.46, 32.72, 34.57, 23.91, 27.30, 24.00, 29.71, 25.32, 28.87+, 24.53, 27.77, 25.49, 22.47, 36.69+, 23.99, 22.57, 25.36, 24.30, 31.19, 27.34, 20.40, 22.20

The 26.17 was an overdue PLL skip, followed by a badly handled PLL skip: 16.06

There are several silly things in here, like a 21 that had a J before 14 (i.e. should be 17-ish non-lucky) with a minor POP during PLL.
Also, the total average is terribly high, and I went sub-25 avg for too short.

4x4x4 avg12:
1:06.21+, 1:05.02, 1:08.71+, 1:09.28, 1:07.24, 1:04.21, (1:24.96), 1:01.91, 1:05.75, 1:06.81, 1:18.23, (57.80)
> 1:07.34

Finally sub-70, but not nearly satisfying.

 

[Speedy McFastfast]

I just got a nice average I think free running helps with cubing, it kindof uses up all of your energy and makes you tired enough to solve well

Average: 19.45 seconds
Individual Times: 17.25, 17.94, (25.34), 21.89, (17.17), 18.20, 20.53, 19.05, 17.25, 20.22, 23.97, 18.20

I zoned out through most of the solving, but the all of the 17s were non lucky. The 18.20 had a really nice start (2x2x3 block almost instantly) but the LL was bad

This isn't my PB average, but it's really nice. Besides that, I think it's only the 4th sub 20 avg I've gotten in my life, not counting all of the rolling averages that lead up to this.

Sub-15 brain simulator (8 pegs) OH, sub-11 brain simulator (8 pegs) 2H.

 

[signaly]

Oh yeah, i've just shattered my pb by 3 seconds and average of 10 by 2 so now i am down to 36 seconds for pb and 38.13 for average . Progress is hapening fast and i don't know why but im happy.
