3:02.53 octahedron
Literally a 4 minutes drop
It was on the bus too, so I was trying to to turn to quickly because it's a rather loud puzzle.

Edges were quick and there were a bunch of solved centers already. I think I managed to use 3-cycle to solve 3 pieces most of the time, as opposed to just 2 or one. I'm very happy with this.

I just crushed my personal best on 4x4 with a 3:59 (yes, minutes). My goal is to be sub 2 minutes with my completely intuituve method, which looks achievable.

Edit: I'm down to 3:29. I've started practicing Roux on 3x3 since I realized that my 4x4 direct-solving method is just Roux if converted to the 3x3. I hope this will improve my lookahead, which is really the only thing making my times very slow. My 3x3 time is about 1:40.

Edit: 3:15

Edit: 3:03

[Ordway Persyn]

[aerocube]

59.90 3x3 ao50

14.20 pyraminx single

 

[xyzzy]

Got a sub-10 single on cam. (In fact, I almost had two of those, but one of them ended up being a 9.76+2 because of AUF fail. Oh well.)

 

[WoowyBaby]

Surprisingly got my first sub-10 single !
It’s a 9.67, almost a full second faster than my previous PB, 10.64.
My global average is like 19.0 yet I still got a sub-10 single lol, it was sure unexpected.

 

[aerocube]

49.70 ao3

first sub-50 average of any kind
the grand improvement begins

 

[aerocube]

new pb
42.95
finished f2l at 28 seconds,oll was bowtie,pll was just opposite edge swap so i did ll in 14 seconds,really fast for me
am suprised this is my pb because i suck at doing m moves

 

[aerocube]

pyraminx is super fun
13.78
12.71
12.08

just broke my pb 3 times in about an hour
i should learn how to fingertrick it,i could probably get a sub-10 pb then

 

[Elifire12]

I just got a new PB (11.68) and I would like to get a sub 10 PB... That would be great, I average like around 16 or 17 seconds... Some pro tips to improve at this point?

4.45 csTimer Virtual Solve

I didn't record this actual solve, but I have the scramble and reconstruction, and a video showing the solve time/tps. Doing some digging this seems to be easily top 10 solves in the world, and maybe the best ever for csTimer because every used to and still use other timers, like qcube and jflysim. My pb before was only a 7.100 so getting this was a huge surprise. I am really good at simple R U Gen and my OLL was F double sexy F' with no AUF pll skip, so I didn't have to recognize the skip which made it even faster. EDIT: just got a fullstep 7.07 single
