New 3x3 PB - 8.72! Totally out of the blue. I wasn't expecting a PB by nearly a second this soon after getting back into cubing.

I'll try a reconstruction:

Doh.

9.14, 10.50, 13.39, 10.00, 14.50

Close to being a PB by a lot. The first two were PLL skips; the fourth was good A perm with no AUF before or after. I wasn't even solving fast; they were just insanely lucky. Wish I could've saved that for when I was warmed up.

welcome back! ^^
 
the good old days *sniffle* and ty :D

Good old days? C'mon! I wish I was now OH at my current 2H PB (and also much better at 2H of course), but nope. I'm stuck at around 20 2H and still not even sub-minute OH.

So you use ZZ for OH? I thought you also used Roux, but with so many M-slices... do you know of anybody that uses Roux for OH? And, if so, how do they manage the M-slices? I still have to learn the 2gen alg for H-perm so I use the M2 U M2 U2 M2 U M2 alg with "table abuse" but I'm so pathetically slow at it that I cannot even think of using Roux for OH.


Then get off the forum and study!!! :)

This is the first time I've ever timed my PLLs, so I'm pretty happy with this. I know I could have done better on a lot of them (Rb & H), but it's fine. Kinda wish the sum of singles was sub 20, but oh well. On the bright side, I did way better than expected for Z, V, E, and the As. I've never done a time attack, but I'm pretty sure I could get sub minute ;)

This is a really cool idea. I might try this sometime soon. Did you stackmat?
