First solve of the day -

11.90 non-lucky :)
Click to expand...

Nice one. I always stink in the morning/first solve. I take it that's really fast for you, judging by your youtube videos?

anyway, I have finally learned and digested all of my OLLs :) ! Yay two look last layer! I know it doesn't help you improve much, but now I feel like I own the cube more now, lol. I'm going to look for some more smexier PLLs, well, I only need an A perm and E perm.

Any suggestions as to what I should do now (besides massive practice ;))? I'm thinking of learning the basics of X-crosses, or just focuses all my spare training into OH and BLD.
EDIT: Ooh! Ohh! I could learn to pen spin! That'd be epic :)

Ouch, the last 3 really killed it. Did you know what the average was so far? I usually minimize that part, so I don't get nervous. PB though? :)
 
Yeah, it's my pb by a little bit. I really did jesus it up because I knew there was a chance of it being a sub 11 average. :/

Full session:
10.41, 9.46, 10.49, 10.69, 10.44, 10.53, 13.08, 11.08, 10.02, 18.78, 14.06, 12.19, 11.50, 14.19, 11.58, 9.86, 14.77, 12.18, 8.86, 12.55, 11.22
All nonlucky.

11.59 average of 21.
Time to practice 4x4.

Oh yeah, I forgot:

A few weeks ago at school, on a friends' handscramble, I got an 8.80 solve :)

It was a 5 move or so X-cross, and an antisune+PLL skip.
The solve was pretty easy though, so it doesn't count for much.

On the bus I got a 30 move linear solution. After first block, the entire F2L was solved except 1 corner. I decided to do the Triple Sexy instead of the R2 one, and I ended up with a Sune last layer.

No. I was using my modded storebought so I wasn't actually going fast. I was having a conversation and not really looking at the cube while I was doing first block, and was like "Brayden. Brayden. Seriously. What the."
 
megaminx!

Average of 12: 1:59.52 (σ = 4.47)
1:55.16, 1:58.28, 1:59.14, (2:09.20), (1:49.08), 2:07.59, 2:00.51, 1:52.32, 1:55.61, 2:03.72, 1:58.23, 2:04.69

(1:49.08), (2:07.59), 2:00.51, 1:52.32, 1:55.61


and the 1:49.08 is a PB single I think :)

Nice :)
I haven't been able to practice with a stackmat for a while (mine broke) :(

Thanks! I'm just using my stackmat for credibility reasons, because I've seen people who use a spacebar not get as much credit for their speed. And it's also on it's last legs on functioning properly so need to use it while it works. I think that sub-4 is my limit on ortega 2x2. Any tips for getting faster?
