[Discomantis]

I just got a last layer skip in the weekly comp for regular 3x3...
I can't figure out what I did though


EDIT: I just got two PLL skips in OH!?!!?!!?!?

 

[LBr]

I got a nice squan pb average of 13.46. Def not trying to say I am but I’m wondering who the fastest Lin user in the UK is

 

[finger go brr]

anyone ever locked up during whatever the algorithm stage is in your main method and got a pb at the same time? it was a Ja perm in case anyone is wondering

edit: i got a pb ao5 as well! first sub 30 ao5

 

[PotatoRad]

4x4 avg sub 1 finally!!!

 

[Exmestify]

first ever sub-12 avg at comp (11.61- 14.67, 13.02, 10.89, 10.45, 10.93). messed up 2x2 and pyra really badly tho

six

ao50: 2:17.810 → 2:15.866
ao100: 2:18.411 → 2:16.870

Old PB averages were from around May last year (1-2 weeks after getting an Aoshi WRM, though maybe 1/3 to 1/2 of the solves were with my MGC 6).

Doubled up magnets on the outer side of the second layer of my WRM (with 4×2 N35 or maybe N38) because it felt like I was getting a lot of lockups on outer layer misalignments. Also loosened the cube a bit to compensate – at first I backed off by a quarter turn, but the cube was exploding a bunch, so I tightened it back by an eighth turn. Not a fan of the increased clickiness purely in terms of feel, but if it gives me better times, I'll take it.

Also found and learnt some fancy L2E alg but I doubt that contributed much (not entirely in muscle memory yet, only got the case twice-ish out of 100+ solves).

The previous one was like a mid-7 a very long time ago, as I had given up practicing 3x3. Currently global ~11 btw

A couple casual lockups

@LBr
This post refers to a previous post of mine as a joke saying that a 4x4 lockup was my greatest achievement. So this is just an addition to said post.

I finally got a sub-14 average of 1000 the other day - very happy after spending months and months only sub-20

On March 24, Feliks will be competing in his 150th competition during which he will be doing his 10,000th solve.

That's like one of the biggest achievements of all time. Nice job Feliks!
