I personally guarantee if you continue to practice you will.

Even though I'm 44? I'm not so sure but thank you very much for your encouragement! I will definitely keep trying.

[AlexTheEmperor]

are you sure

Those numbers aren't valid because:
- You didn't just get 3 LL skips with U2 AUF in a row, you got them in some number of solves, so you have to take that into account - for example if I flipped 6 coins and got 3 heads the probability is not 1/8
- Hand scrambles are not random: they're not independent (people tend to do the same thing over and over, so you probably used the same move sequences several times) and each one is not necessarily properly scrambled (you may have done a sequence of moves over an over, having very little effect or doing the equivalent of only a few moves).
- 15552*4 = 62208

-If you read note 1, you would know that I already knew this.
-They are as random as they need to be. It makes no difference if the cube is fully-scrambled apart from a completed yellow cross when blue is chosen to be solved. Don't make a ghastly assertion by saying that the whole calculation is invalid because I might have not applied a fully-random scramble sequence to the cube each time. I am not stupid, I know not to spam a 3-gen RUF scramble and claim the cube is properly scrambled. I used at least a 5-gen scramble hand scramble each time, turning at about 4-5tps for 15 seconds and making a deliberate attempt not to repeat myself. Ok, so you didn't know this at the time, but don't use it as evidence to prove the invalidity of the figure.
-The sum, although incorrect, could be so due to a plethora of reasons. For example, accidentally pressing the wrong key or entering a different figure altogether. You can see it is wrong easily just by inspection:

15 * 4:
15 * 2 = 30
30 * 2 = 60
not 4...

I obviously didn't proof read my post and hence the aforementioned error.

Smashed all of my 3x3 PBs except for single, also 4:00.004 6x6 single, so close to sub 4:00

1:50.203 5x5 solve, also 48.639 4x4 solve, about .5 off of PB, but it was OLL parity, but PLL skip.

Held a competition in Portland that actually went well!

Had 2 sub14 3x3 singles. Took 4th in 5x5. Was on the bubble for 2x2 finals. Had a sub50 4x4 single (with OLL parity). Stayed on schedule. And introduced about 50 newbies to the WCA. T'was awesome.

 

[Genius4Jesus]

5x5 PBs:

1:22.92 Ao5 and 1:27.62 Ao12!

 

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

Sq-1 parity cubeshape progress: know most of it, but not every case. Had a couple of attempts tonight at a legit AO12 (using 15s inspection). First one was bad, then:

(35.20), 23.50, 35.13, 24.58, 26.33, 27.62, 29.33, 30.05, 26.67, 31.81+, 30.05, (22.36)
= 28.51 AO12, 26.18 AO5

All successful (no parity algs needed) . Very stressful though, at this stage trying for an AO50 might give me a heart attack. Global accuracy with untimed inspection is about 95%, mostly stupid mistakes.
