Last solve was a PLL skip

'lowest time challenge' on skype with Mike. 5 minutes to get the lowest possible time on a given scramble.

first times were 7.04, 5.48, 6.76, 7.11, 7.39 = 6.97 ao5

also, only did cross on D to both do the same cross each time.

Both PBs. Lot's of easy scrambles. Actually had some lucky LL for once (9.56 was sledgehammer for last slot+LL so basically LL skip, there was a PLL skip somewhere, and also an accidental XXCross when building an Xcross)

So I think my 3x3 pbs are 7.0x/10.23/11.19/12.03 for single/5/12/50.

So your ao12 and ao50 are faster than mine...
I don't do them much so that makes sense. Was this on cam?

EDIT: That sounded a little pompous, I wasn't trying to be

 

[Tim Major]

I rarely do ao50s either, not on cam I might film some Wednesday, but probably not

sub 10 single in the finals ;P also 8.93 in the second round, both NL

PBs from today:
5x5: 5/12/100: 1:36.71/1:41.07/1:47.52
6x6: 1/5/12: 3:01.13/3:16.39/3:21.25
7x7: 100: 4:58.90

7x7 AO100 is still way slower than I am, since 100 solves takes forever and I was a lot slower 100 solves ago than I am now. The same thing will be true of 6x6 once I actually get there--I've yet to actually do 100 6x6 solves.

Great solve! Glad you got there. I'm at 10.41; hopefully I'll be next.

For your third pair, the one I put in bold, you can use U R' U2 R U R' U' R instead of U2 R' U2 R U R' U' R U' R' U R. It's much faster.

That is how I would have solved that pair as well but my OLL alg for that case would have yielded a v perm. He made the best choice.



Also PB Skewb Single on new Moyu skewb: 2.44 lol scramble but meh

Also can someone good tell me what times they get with Sarah's Beginner's. I am stuck around 10 sec (σ = 2 sec) for most Ao100s(Have maybe 1500 solves lifetime). Not sure if really bad or if need to learn intermediate, advanced or something.

Jayden has a low 8 avg12 there, so I'd guess that low 8 global is possible with enough practise. I'd just learn the intermediate cases though, they're not too bad
