38.78 3x3x4 single.

I'm going to win.

 

[Robert-Y]

OH:

E perm single: 2.51

F perm single: 2.84

I used the RUF alg for F perm, it's bad for AUF afterwards though...

 

[Xishem]

17.10 Ao100 with roux. I think it could have been sub-17 if I would have been semi-serious while I was doing it. Maybe next time.

 

[Rubiks560]

Sub 1'd all 2x2 CLL's on cam. Video coming soon.

 

[Vinny]

PB average of 5 for 5x5 (in signature).

 

[CubeMeister]

Finally reached SUB-15 on 3x3! Cube: The best Guhong in the freaking world.

Hey! Woooooot, you joined speedsolving I was actually just about to suggest you join.

3x3x4 Average of 5: 50.69

Almost sub-40. I'm going to win.

 

[That70sShowDude]

I'm really bad at OH, but this is a new single PB

14.11 pll skip
D2 U' R B F L' B' F2 R2 L F' U2 R U' L D2 L' D2 U2 R' D L' R B' R2

I don't feel like writing out the reconstruction due to all of the rotations, but:
37 moves - 2.62 tps - lol (that's probably good tps for me anyway)

EDIT: close to avg pbs
22.22 avg5 (.07 off)
23.14 avg12 (.07 off)

 

[That70sShowDude]

I think this deserves a double post. Two things.

Got my 100th (and 101st) sub-10 solve today.
Some breakdowns:
85 9's
15 8's

54 nl
35 pll skip
6 oll skip
0 ll skip
6 unsure

Also just got a PB 4x4 solve at 47.67. It had the pll parity where two adjacent corners were swapped.

The devil's number was my best time in a 2x2 average:

Average of 5: 8.48
1. (6.66) U' F R F2 U' F U
2. (11.47) F' R F' U F' U2 R2
3. 9.41 R2 U' F R F2 R F2 R F' U'
4. 7.38 F' R2 U F' U2 F2 U' R U'
5. 8.66 R' F U R F2 U R2 U

Scary 0_0

 

[RyanReese09]

Trying to eliminate some causes as to why I fail in comp. One of them is probably that I always practice at home holding cube in hand, ready for fast cross. First average with stackmat. Got better as the average progressed. A second slower.

[JackJ]

I officially feel slow with a mid to high 16 average.

Almost sub-40. I'm going to win.

What are you going to win?

I don't know what method you are using, but for me, the obvious solution would be
y U' L' U (L R) U' R' U

Shoulda OLLCP'd.

After f2l
z U' R' U2 R B R B' R2' U2 R
U perm

really nice f2l on that solve.

 

[DavidWoner]

Considering my U and Tperms are about the same speed that wouldn't have helped much, especially since that OLLCP is wayslow compared to the OLL.

 

[Robert-Y]

I managed to sub1 all EG1 algs in a few hours!

I haven't "learnt" them yet, I just learnt one alg at a time on Dan Cohen's website, timed it until I could sub 1, then moved on to the next one. I only used 2 which I found with CE5.

Also I haven't made any videos, but I don't mind doing a few hard ones if someone wants me to...

[qqwref]

Did a bunch of solves with K4 on 3x3 (blockbuilding first layer, second layer with no rotations, then LL however). It's really fun to be able to do the second layer edges with almost no pauses.
