Avg of 25: 24.45 with a pb avg of 23.67!
3 sub 20 solve of the 25!
I am now a little over 2 seconds from my 2H pb avg lol.

Yeha! 9.14 Pyraminx non lucky single solve (before 9.28).

Four turn first step, four turn second step (saw both while inspecting). Then a four turn alg to to the third step an another four turn alg for the last step. And it was some tips to adjust but I don't remember how many, let's say it was a 18 turn solve and that is the same as my average number of turns for this puzzle.

Felt nice, four days before competition

11.21 single solve on a 3x3x3 is a nice acomplishment. :]
also the fact that i CAN solve the cube blindfolded, maybe not great times though, haha.

 

[Kenneth]

Yeha! 9.14 Pyraminx non lucky single solve (before 9.28).

It's 9.11 now

Seems I like Porsche, my last records was: 959, 928, 914 and 911

Next stop 356

Too bad the 914 was a piece of crap...

Blindfolded?

he probably meant 5x5

Ok, he should've made that clear.

I solved 8 cubes blindfolded in 26:42 minutes. Memorization took about 15 minutes. Still too slow :/.

First sub-20 average ever. I feel good


Edit: Got a second sub-20 average just hours later, slightly better than the previous!

Average: 19.44 seconds

Now I need to work on consistently averaging sub-20

 

[Siraj A.]

New 5x5 Average and UNLUCKY PB! And it was betetr than the lucky one. I jsut came around to finding the pieces faster on that solve.

Average: 5:02.50

Individual Times: 5:14.62, 4:50.61, 5:01.12, 4:46.11, 5:29.03, 4:50.36, (4:24.26), 4:49.10, 5:10.25, 4:40.12, 5:33.72, (5:37.61)

So close to sub-5 average! Need to practise more.

 

[Kemp_Drumsalot]

New fastest 3x3: 41.37 seconds. I was using my old method because I was racing someone =-D. I worked quite a bit on my F2L and new last layer today as well and got those times down, just not to a good time yet. Anyone know what the last layer method is called that uses a total of 11 algorithms? I looks like a simplified version of fridrich.

[Kenneth]

After a competiton you must always break some of your records, (why not AT competition??, never happens to me). I did good in Pyraminx at SCD and today I broke my average record so I keep the tradition.

11.51 Pyraminx average 10(12)

10.08 9.12 12.34 13.53 (DNF) (8.29) 13.28 9.60 13.41 14.78 8.94 10.04

The DNF was a pop.

 

[roboboy]

Got my F2L+Cross down to a 30 sec avg. after spending 2-3 weeks of it being 40+.
So I'm now averaging 20sec(est.) 4 LLL(Get Cross on top, Get corners in correct positions, Sune to Permute the corners, then Edge Swap PLLs). My average is alright for 1.5 months cubing but, looking to improve of course.


After i have achieved something i believe it is only right to set another goal for myself, and Plan it out. Failure to plan is planning to fail.

Goal: Learn to use method below:

Cross on top, OLL (Cross ones), then Corner Swap using T-Perm algo(swap oriented)corners and then edge swap perms.


Plan: Learn these algo's:

OLL's (Cases with the cross done), then T-Perm


Thanks for Reading!

I was so nervous for the last 3 solves, that's probably why I got the 25.94. Ironically, my fastest solve was a 2 step OLL with one of my worst PLL's (Rb), although the 3 move X-cross may explain that

 

[Dyste]

I finally got a sub-25 solve; though it was lucky. I haven't even gotten to learning any of the OLLs or PLLs. I use a 3LLL or perhaps it's 4. I'm not sure. But I'm happy.

 

[Kemp_Drumsalot]

Took a break from learning my simplified version of Fridrichs (wrote some new algorithms instead of cubing), got my time from 120.11 to 75.77. On my way!

 

[Jacco]

Got my first sub 40 avg =D. Also managed to make my personal best 1 second better.
