Again, I forgot that I signed up for OH for Nats; so, I did an F2L average of 12:

You should really practice full solves. At your speed having the stamina to go full speed for the whole solve is an important consideration.

I've decided that it's now or never to become duo color (I don't see myself becoming color neutral ).

Soooo... I've been working on it and am now sub 19 with yellow cross.

I plan on cubing with yellow the whole day tomorrow and hopefully my times will be equal if not just above my normal times (14-16).

This is both an accomplishment (sub 19) and a goal (duo color), but I think the goal is too short term to make a post in the goals thread.

2x2 - 7x7 OH relay
1hr and 3mins, would have been sub 1 easily, but the 6x6 locked up horribly and i did the oll parity alg about 7 times because i cant really execute it one handed
guessing 7x7 was 20mins, and 2x2-5x5 was sub 10mins so pretty much 6x6 was fail

 

[Zane_C]

Lol, sounds tiring.

You should start making videos.

yea i was like, cant be that bad, but yea. worth it i guess. il do it again in like a month or sumthing try and sub 1 it

Do you use different cubes or do you resolve again so you get to scramble it? I can see how solvign a cube cube 100 times can be tedious just for cross timing.

 

[aronpm]

There's no point solving it fully after you solve the cross. Scrambling again scrambles the cross, and that's all you would care about.

nvm

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

Only if you only use 1 color for your cross >_>

 

[Sa967St]

yeah, I would just scramble it, solve the white cross, rotate it to put it on U, scramble again etc.

 

[joey]

When I did a cross average recently, I actually solved it fully every time. To make sure I wouldn't miss x-crosses, or opposite crosses (or cross skips/1move other colours)

3x3x3:

Single: 11.31 [ current pb: 10.07 ]

Average of 5: 13.29 [ previous pb: 13.71 ]
Times: 14.80, 12.82, 12.25, (16.10), (11.39)

Average of 12: 14.74 [ current pb: 14.53 ]

Average of 100: 16.44 [ current pb: 15.37 ]

Only one PB (the avg5) but I'm happy about the avg12 and avg100. Although, I was aiming for sub-16 avg100.

Maru lube is

Fixed.
And nice averages.

LOL - 1.29.85 4x4 solve
. My best effort out of around 30 solves.

I just can't get on with this Maru that came this morning. I can spit out sub1.20 avgs on my YJ. I'm gonna give it another 50 or so solves to see what happens though
