Ok seriously this 4x4 PB thing is getting stupid. I failed two solves at sub 50 (WHYYYY OLL PARITY MESS UP)
but anyway,,,, something really clicked with centers, working on planning out more inspection, edge pairing is getting good.
Pb Single whoop (but should have been sub 50 lolz) 53:437
and....
PB Avg of 12 1:03.261 : 1:02.581, 1:10.178, 1:02.464, (53.437), 1:01.229, (1:13.059), 1:03.047, 1:03.813, 1:03.124, 1:05.785, 1:02.071, 58.313
starting to get real consistent now
Global avg is dropping below 1:05 now

lol I hate it when that happens! I finish the session and see the average and get excited but then I realize there's like a 2.9 solve...

 

[Torch]

First sub-2 megaminx solve: 1:59.33! It wasn't even an especially great feeling solve, so hopefully I'll get another one soon.

EDIT: and my next solve is 1:56.96!

Edit2: Off-topic, grammar issue. When I read "an especially" on your post it seemed so strange that I had to check it out. It looks like it is correct (from Merriam-Webster learners dictionary):

What is the difference between the adjectives special and especial?

The meanings of the adjectives special and especial are more or less the same. They both mean “different and more than usual”. However, special is by far more common than especial. In fact, according to the Corpus of Contemporary American English, special is used about 600 times for every one time that especial is used. In addition, unlike especial, special does not need to be followed by a noun. Since special is much more common, and its use is more flexible, I don’t recommend using especial at all.

Huh, I didn't even know "especial" was a word. I've never heard someone use it before. However, the adverb "especially" is a pretty common word. Wiktionary defines it as "Particularly; to a greater extent than is normal," which I think is pretty accurate. For example:

"Their milkshakes are especially good."
"His solves were pretty good, but his F2L was especially fast."

And when used negatively like Torch did, it means that there was nothing notable about the solve, even though you would expect his new PB to have some big reason for being faster.

Hope this made sense.
