oll skip, does that count as non lucky?

it was a forced skip since I purposely used a CLS alg, so its nonlucky

you really have gotten alot better since ive subbed to you

 

[dChan]

See, it's useful! You should use CLS more often.

i never thought i'd get to this point, the more i think about, the more proud I am. I actually have "win competition" potential, by the time Nationals come, I should be even more of top competitor. I've been doing an average of 100+ per day.
todays was 14.30. very consistent. [look at the SD^^^]

one more thing, i just noticed the the 18 is the only non-13 or 14. [i messed up that LL ]



one more 'one more thing', 4x4x4 PB single, 53.43, nothing too great, but I'm happy

 

[Faz]

Nice work Alex!

Sub 14 is a big goal.
Work on that 4x4!

 

[pinoycuber]

sub 1:20 im so bad at F2L!

[Zava]

2-5 relay in 2:51.61, 5x5 was 1:32, 4x4 not sure, but probably I finished it around 2:33-2:35(meh solve...and OLL parity) 3x3 was done at 2:46.

[d4m4s74]

I just did a magic average of 5 and during the last solve I solved it, slammed it into the table, it flew towards my laptop pressing the cd-drive button (actually opening it)

oh yeah, it was a 1.63 single on a 1.82 average
