3x3 9.9 seconds non lucky in my first official competition I think I am the first person to have done this

From the UK masters thread:

For all interested the scramble for the 9.90 solve (well done robert!) was:

F2 D2 L2 D L2 B2 R2 F2 D F' R D U F' L' D2 U F D2 U
cross on green.

If anyone cares, the solution is

x' y' F' D L R' F L' U' L D'
y U' L' U L
y R U R' U R U R'
U L' U' L
R' U' R U' R' U' R
(I'm not sure how Rob executed the LL algs, so I'll just put how I do it)
U' l' U2 L U L' U l
U' R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2 U2

EDIT: Also, I have my own accomplishment! Sub 15 single and sub 20 average in competition - both non lucky!

SUB 16 AVERAGE OF 12 WITH PETRUS YEEEAAHHHHHHHHH

Average: 15.80 Individual Times:15.44, (14.00), 17.34, 15.12, 15.88, 19.22, 16.86, 14.06, 15.55, 14.26, (20.34), 14.24

Rob,

Congrats for the sub-10! But you have a horrible cross.

Pandaman,

almost 7 seconds faster than me? I can't accept that. Must sub-20 using Petrus... will I ever catch up to you? And are you going to big cubes summer or connecticut competitions?

 

[JLarsen]

I've never been to a competition. Living in New Hampshire means most competitions are over 10 hours away =\. But don't worry I'm almost 18 I'll drive myself down there on my own eventually. AND KEEP PETRUSING you're the closest I've seen out of my Petrus buds to get sub 20. You CANNOT let me down. Besides, I've been doing Petrus for sometime now. Erik took 5 years to get where he is.

EDIT: WOAH! CONNECTICUT SUMMER IS ONLY 3 HOURS AWAY I WANNA GO AND THERES A CHANCE I CAN WOAH

 

[Robert-Y]

@fanwuq: This is my solution (with how I solved the LL)


Scramble: F2 D2 L2 D L2 B2 R2 F2 D F' R D U F' L' D2 U F D2 U

Solution:
Cross + preserved F2L pair: x' y' F' D L R' F L' U' L D' (9)
1st F2L Pair: y U' L' U L (4)
2nd: y R U R' U R U R' (7)
3rd: U L' U' L (4)
4th: R' U' R U' R' U' R (7)
OLL: U r' U2 R U R' U r (8)
PLL: U' L U' L U L U L U' L' U' L2 (12)

Move total: 51

Time: 9.90

Turning speed: 5.15 (2.d.p.)

(Notice the L' U' L in the cross solution was for preserving an F2L pair )

 

[Deleted member 2864]

made my second sub 20 average of 12 =D

Rob,
Didn't bother going through the solution. I didn't think that you would have a 9 move cross for no reason. So it is really more of a 13 move extended cross.


Pyraminx single:
3.36
Scramble: L' R' U' L R U L' U L R U' R' L'
No tips got it off the WCA scrambler. Otherwise non-lucky.

Edit:
3.21
U' L' U L R U R' U u' b'
It's just a ZBLS case! I didn't know it so I had a small pause
I did
RU'R'U'LR'L'R as the solution.

But you are doing very well
