4x4: champion for Singapore Open..
We were allowed to only use rubik's brand for 4x4..and best 2 timings from 3 timings..I was having a 1:23 average before the competition but somehow got these: 1st solve 1:36 DNF, 4 corners and 3 edges flew off the stage, 1:35 2nd solve cos i messed up my corners, 1:28 last solve with a pop. I walked home with 300 SGD toys r us voucher..direct solving rawks anyhow.

FU got 1.1k SGD toys r us voucher though

Soon after this, I got a 5.66 average of 5 and a 2.46 PB single

Times:

8.48
6.15
3.68
7.14
2.46

(the 2.46 and the 3.48 were both easy enough to plan almost the whole solve in 4 seconds)

 

[slncuber21]

ok, new pbs that i got during the weekly solves just now..

2x2- new avg, 11.xx
3x3- new pb single (lucky), 21.48!!
magic- tied my avg, 1.72

 

[Garmon]

Sub 40 on video and now hitting sub 40 atleast 5 times every day!

 

[slncuber21]

new magic record!
1.28 (i think thats it, it might be 1.24 or something like that..)

 

[ajmorgan25]

Finally. My first sub-25 average!!!! I've been plus 25, sub 30 for like 4 months now so I've been pretty frustrated. I think I just hit one of those random jumps, so I think my times might be improving pretty quick now...that is until I get to the next bump. (No times over 30!)

my attempt at did you know:
-right before this average i spent 15 minutes looking for a popped corner piece because black pieces behind the desk are hard to see when they are on black tile.
-the first five are a pb avg of 5: 18.07
-none of the 15.xxs were lucky.
-I had two non-lucky x-crosses.
-all sup-20's were either V or F perm, my worst algs, except for the 23.56.
-the 23.56 was an E-perm, which i still dont know, along with N's.
-im starting to believe that cubes turn better in the heat, since my room does not have AC and is never cooler than 85.
-heat has the opposite effect on clocks?

wooooooot!!!!

new Pb Avg!!!!
27.68!!!

 

[MTGjumper]

OK, I'm feeling ridiculously consistent =/

Session average of 25:

Average: 17.36
Fastest Time: 14.94
Slowest Time: 19.88
Standard Deviation: 01.45

Best average:

Average: 17.29
Fastest Time: 14.97
Slowest Time: 18.92
Standard Deviation: 01.31

My best average was only 0.07 seconds faster than my session average!

From my average of 25:

14.xx: 2
15.xx: 3
16.xx: 5
17.xx: 3
18.xx: 11
19.xx: 1

I really should be getting more 17.xx solves =/ However, 8 of the 18.xx solves were sub-18.5, so that's not bad.

New 3x3 PB average 3/5.

46.06
52.44
48.71
40.65
40.38

Average: 45.05

This amazes me... earlier today I was complaining about how my times have been really bad lately. Then all the sudden this comes up. My previous persoanl best average was 51.xx... 4 of the 5 times in this average are faster than that.

The worst part is that I didn't get it on camera, because this was going to be my warmup BEFORE I recorded an average of 5...GRRRR

 

[Kenneth]

1:36.53 ... 4x4x4 single time.

First time sub 100 seconds, man that felt great!

Previous record was 100.39 seconds.

Got a ES this weekend, before I used a pretty loose Rubik's, this new one is at least 20% faster.

yay! sub-5 avg! one of my "goals for the next few months" is already complete!

i used a different alg for the 2.86's OLL because it resulted in a cancellation. this alg also has a different effect on the permutation of the LL. so since i used i different OLL than normal that resulted in a skip, does that count as non-lucky? technically i "worked for it" right?

my solution for the 2.86:
the theoretical solution:
x y2 [U R L' B'] R' B L B' R B U2
the performed solution:
x y2 R' U L U' R U F2

during inspection i saw that the bracketed moves could cancel, so thats what i did.

 

[Jude]

Woohoo! First sub 20 average, even though it was 3/5 and 1 solve was incredibly lucky
2nd solve had a 7 move triple x-cross
19.47, (14.23), 18.50, (23.27), 19.28 = 19.25

holy crapola! new 5x5 record!!!!

5:35.88!
this is REALLY good for me, seeing as i have only been doing 5x5 for about 3/4 days now.

hopefully i can get down to a sub-4 avg by October

::EDIT::
i just took my first A5 on my 5x5, and i got

5:57.16!!

here were the times:
5:35.88
5:47.44

im so proud of myself!
