Yay! Got 3rd place in my school MathCounts competition. I'll put a PB on here later.

Cool! I'm in a Mandelbrot club. Maths

OH PB Single in Weekly Comp 2013-02

22.81 PB by like 5 seconds lol

U F2 L2 B2 U' R2 D' B2 D F2 U B D F' U L F' L2 D' L'

2 bad edges --> Accidental X-EoLine --> Anti-Sune --> G-perm // 47 Turns = 2.06 Tps, I can post full reconstruction if anyone wants it

Also, Sq-1 improvement, 1:34.46 Single, 2:02.71 Average of 5

Edit: Scrap that, Just got 1:14.43 Single, rolling the average to 1:49.02

 

[Riley]

Megaminx PB's:

1:31.24 single (PLL skip)
1:43.97 average of 5
1:47.34 average of 12
2:03.03 average of 100

I could roll the average of 100 to sub 2 since when I started it I averaged around 2:25. Mega is fun, I think it will be the one side event that I will try to become decent at.

5x5x5 <M,U> scrambles
Anyone else care to try? M is of course the inner slice otherwise it would be very boring. I'm restricting myself to <M,U> solving too

How do you solve it?

How do you solve it?

Centres, EO, DB/DF, EPLL
I have to 2-look quite a few EOs though because I haven't got algs for all of them

Example solve was here, but totally didn't work so I've deleted it. Must have scrambled wrong

Example solve

All easy cases there

That doesn't work...

 

[Xishem]

Finally learned the last 2 CMLL cases.

Now I've got, like, 4 ELLs and 6 or 7 OLLs and then I'll know full CMLL, COLL, ELL, OLL, and PLL.
