What the hell!?! I just got another non lucky sub 9! (well, I suppose the cross is pretty easy)...

U' F2 L R' B2 D U B F' D U2 R2 F' R B F R2 D' L U' B F' U R U2

Cross: x2 y D2 R (2)
1st pair: L' U L U' L' U' L (7) (9)
2nd pair: R' U' R U L U' L' (7) (16)
3rd + 4th pair: R U R' U R U R2 U2 R U' R' U R (13) (29)

OLL: U2 R U R' U R U' R' U R U' R' U' R' F R F' (17) (46) (lol inefficient)
PLL: U' R2 U' R' U' R U R U R U' R (12) (58)

TPS: 6.56...
Wow. That's amazing. New TPS PB easily.
I foresaw the first 2 pairs so they took about 2s, but the LL went amazingly smooth and fast.

That70sShowDude, I challenge you in a race to become sub-40 (average of 12) in OH first!

My PBs are higher than yours, but times will range greatly at first.

Ok, but you're going to get it way before me
I bet 30 solves before today, i was almost at 3 minutes

I'm actually suprised I got 5 successful solves in a row, even though I messed up some of the PLL's
It will take a long time to actually get 12 successful solves, because i'm so used to going really fast with 2 hands

I've only done 1 average of 12 so far (I started OH on Saturday), but I rolled out some solves and got sub-1!

Typically I'm like 55:-1:20 though. It's a crazy range right now.

 

[edd5190]

Yup, OH is pretty fun.

Any advice for someone who just started?

Alex Yu, who got 2nd in OH at U.S. Nationals, advised me to "Use your pinky (for R'); you'll drop like 10 seconds."

Left handed is the norm. It allows you to pull off R moves with ease so understanding algos is much easier.

Oh god, it took the whole day today.
But I have finally created enough ZBLL to solve any ZBLL case!!!!

I don't think I want to share algorithms... They were very tedious to make and someone might learn them super fast. D:
If I didn't have to make these darn algorithms with all my time, I would be much farther progressed than I am right now. >.<

22.24 avg 5 I be gettin better!

OHMYGEEZ!!!

Just did an average and got this...

Statistics for 3x3x3 Cube:

Number of solves: 32/32

Session mean: 16.20 (±0.00)
Session average: 16.26 (±0.00)
Standard deviation: 1.90 (11.7%)

Best time: 10.61
Worst time: 19.88

Best average of 5: 14.68 = 14.72, (10.61), 14.53, 14.78, (15.31)

Best average of 12: 15.51 = 16.88, 17.45, 14.19, (19.88), 16.81, 15.49, 14.94, 14.72, (10.61), 14.53, 14.78, 15.31

Hmmm... New pbs of 5 and 12. I just got sub 15 yesterday and I didn't think I'd break my 14.98 average of 5 so fast. Wow. ALSO, new pb non lucky single of 10.61. I flipped out so bad when I got this.

33.40 PLL time attack.

Sub 15 non-lucky? Or is it lucky. Please tell. B2 U B2 R2 L2 D L' F' R' L' U L' D R2 F D R B U' B F D2 U2 F' D2

Here's the video.

The main thing is OMG! Yay!

Edit: 2 reasons for this being so fast. This was an OLL I know, and my fastest PLL. The other reason is that, well, just try the scramble and you'll see the other reason.
