4x4 PB single - 1:03.00! :D :D :D :D I'm so very happy! :) Last layer was simply U' U2 l' U' L U R U' L' U.

1:05.30+, 1:06.25, 1:13.56, (1:14.34), (1:03.00) = 1:08.37. (PB)

The 1:05.30+ is up on Youtube and was PB. Yes, my PB came on my 4th 4x4 solve tonight. :D
 
1:02.44! :D Ridiculously easy scramble.

r2 F u2 F2 L2 D2 U F2 R2 u' D2 f2 U f2 R' D2 L2 u2 F' L2 B2 F2 L2 r2 B U' D' u F' U B L2 D' B U D2 f2 U f2 B (Good for you Reductioners, too!)

Layer-building was insanely easy and there was no OParity, LL was COLL + U + PLL parity. Somehow I managed to accidentally keep the blue center (I scramble in YO orientation) intact while pairing up the 3 edges for the Rouxblock. :D

@antoine : Yes

I got 1:29.60 with Yau. Centers and cross were insanely easy, but edge pairing was disastrous... I had OLL and PLL parity :(. I average between ~1:22 and ~1:28, depending on the day.
 
I actually ended my Ao100 with a PB single!!! This is unreal.

Your improving pretty fast in sq-1, I really want to invest time in it, or at least not be the worst sq-1 solver in germany :P

Practice a lot to get better at putting it into a square.
Then here's the algs I use: http://kungfoomanchu.com/guides/andy-klise-square-1.pdf
at some point, I may learn a more advanced method, but for now, I know about 15 of these algs, and I average around high 40s.


EDIT: loosened my square-1 a bit-- got my times to drop

PB ao5: 38.56

PB Average of 12 and Average of 100. I'd roll some of the solve out, but I just did 100 square-1 solves in a row and my wrists hurt!

I'm so tired of failing in competitions! I'm getting sub-25 next competition I go to! It's gonna happen!
