Awww man.
Also are you going to the Asian champs?

Nah it's probably one week before my end of year exams. Besides, I doubt I'll be allowed to go to China.

Also, 12.18 OH PB single, 18.02 ao5 and 19.40 ao12

Sorry for all these pb singles I posted recently but this one is worth because it's my first sub10 solve ever!

Generated By csTimer on 2016-4-12
single: 9.91

Time List:

U2 U2 r U R' U' r' R U R U' R' //OLL
U' //PLL skip

46 HTM, 4.6 TPS

I just don't understand why my pb singles are always the worst solves I can imagine..
For first pair I could have maybe done U R' U' R U2 R' U R to save one rotation.
2nd and 3rd were good I think but obviously just y' U R U R' U' R U R' for 4th. I really have to remember this one. It doesn't cost a lot of time but those split seconds are crucial now that I enter the sub10 range.
Not to mention my OLL recognition.

Quite happy though considering a sub10 single was my goal for 2016.

Is it 9.91 or 9.90? if it's 9.91, we're tied

Congrats! I've been waiting for a sub-10 single for over a year now. and still not even sub-11

Thanks you! The funny thing is that I have no sub11 solve except for this sub10 solve and several 11.xx ones. ^^

csTimer is weird, the solve was definitely 9.90 but when I ask it to display the average it tells me the average was 9.91.
So I guess I beat you. Not even close.

Exactly. I know that because of your PB single posts lately and that's why I mentioned it because you avoided the sub11 altogether and I would be happy even with a sub11. Anyway, I'm an oldie and my progress is slower so I have to be patient.

6x6 single and mo3 PBs for the weekly comp: 3:33.05, 3:31.76, 3:16.40 = 3:27.07 mean

 

[PurpleBanana]

PB (and first sub 20) average of 5 = 18.76
19.37, (27.25), 18.55, (17.69), 18.37

It's pathetic compared to all of you in here talking about 11 second solves, but I was happy about it

Your first sub20 ao5 is even sub19? Nice. I was exactly at that point half a year ago and remember how awesome the first sub20 avg felt. Congrats!

[PurpleBanana]

Yes, I don't do very many timed solves these days because it's bad practice for my lookahead. I'm trying to break the habit of spamming TPS for each pair and then having a 2-second pause.

Apparently the practice I've been doing is paying off somewhat.

I was exactly at that point half a year ago and remember how awesome the first sub20 avg felt.

Well, I haven't really gotten a legitimate sub 20 average. Ao5s are too volatile to mean anything. When I get a sub 20 average of 12 I'll consider myself to have a sub 20 average.

9.80 3x3 PB single!

can't reconstruct, but I know it was a wide antisune to a PLL skip.

Please do more 2x2.

Haha alright. I recorded a bunch of solves last night, and I wasn't doing very well. I have a 30 minute video full of fails and me rambling and saying random ****. I may just go ahead and upload the whole thing as a comedy video.

edit: here it is

 

[PurpleBanana]

yes. here it is:

Ha I'm faster than that in 1x1 BLD

Nice average. Have you done this before?
