I managed to triple podium at my comp yesterday. I thought that was cool

Light haul , good stuff

Luke is amazing!

 

[abunickabhi]

This is insane, imagine what the solve would have looked like with ZBLL prediction!

 

[Cuber Score]

I didn't practice 3x3 for a long time, and when I started again I was averaging around 20. Now I'm increasingly getting more solves in the 17-18 range.

So close yet so far

Mega Guildford complete! It took me 3 attempts across the past few months, but I finally did it. Sub 1 hour too!

EDIT: For those of you that don't know, the mega guildford is a relay of all WCA puzzles, including blind events and FMC. (I did get a 35 move solution on FMC)

How does timing work for a Mega guildford? (Basically how does MBLD and FMC get incorporated in the time?) because, obviously, if do a lot of cubes for MBLD, it’ll take longer. So are MBLD and FMC not counted in the final time?

For MBLD, just do a 2/2. For FMC, just write down a solution in the shortest amount of time.

Yeah so just do 2 cubes and then do speed fmc (like on weekly comp) @FenTheGoat

This weekend, I was at a competition (Amherst Winter Challenge 2025). During the finals of FMC, I found a solution on attempt 1 that was, to say the least, insane. I found it in about 20 minutes, and I then realized that it was 18 moves, just TWO MOVES off WR, being WR9. And the best part? I DID IT WITH CFOP/BLOCK BUILDING. To say that I now *technically* have a WR in an event (this is CFOP/blocks WR), and in the event that I practice the least, no less, is a huge milestone in my cubing journey. Thank you to everyone, especially my family and friends, who has helped me and cheered me on for these past 10 years. (No, I am not quitting, this is just a formal speech fsr lmao) Attached are the solution sheet and my worksheet.

 

[edward_9x]

I just got an 11.?? solve
I then did another solve and realized I forgot to click on "No Penalty" to keep the time (I used DCTimer and when you finish a solve with this timer you have to tap that every time you finish solving for it to be saved)

Happened on the same day, also same day as yiheng Wang WR Single

 

[ekcuber]

I got a 3 second pyraminx solve, and I average like 12. the average is still a huge accomplishment because I just got the moyu weilong and I went from averaging 17 to 11-12.

I just got the moyu weilong and I went from averaging 17 to 11-12.

when I got the weilong, I went from avging 12 to 7.8

 

[Caleb Valenzuela]

when I got the wirlong, I went from avging 12 to 7.8

I thought you were talking about 3x3

 

[THE_V01DL0RD]

I thought you were talking about 3x3

avging 7.8 with a PB single of 10.9 is crazy
