Still have to think about my goals

 

[Wassili]

Main goal: get a PB in all of the events

3x3: sub-14
2x2: sub-5
4x4: sub-1:05
5x5: sub-2:10
3x3 OH: sub-26
Pyra: ...sub-10?

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Main goal: solving the cubes in a reasonable time frame hahahaha

I haven't done ANYTHING at all for weeks now since life took a blackflip, so I should try to get back into the grind, that is for sure.

 

[MarcelP]

Okay,

3x3: sub-30 average, sub 25 single
3BLD: just do some solves, probably not going to have a succes.
2x2: sub-13 average, sub 8 single
4x4: sub-3:00 average
5x5: sub-10:00 single
3x3 OH: sub-2:00 average
Pyra: sub-40 average

3x3 OH: sub-2:00 average
Pyra: sub-40 average

I think. The cuttof for OH is 1.00-1.30

 

[MarcelP]

I think I am still going to try.

 

[moralsh]

I think I am still going to try.

You should make the cutoff with just a day of practice, I was sub 1:30 the first day I seriously tried with way worse look ahead than yours. Go Marcel go!

I have been practicing for a month already. I was 2:30 averaging which I brought back to about 1:30 My PB is just below that.

 

[moralsh]

Use a small and loose cube and during F2L focus on lower movecount versus fingertricky algorithm, practice stuff like R U R' U', and the 2 look oll algorithms and you should be averaging sub 1:30 in little time, I do and trust me, I'm bad at OH

Oh, and don't hesitate on using the table

[scylla]

It was good to see you all today. Nice location, special thx's for Hanneke and Ron.

 

[scylla]

Does anyone has the scramble of THE second solve in final 3x3x3? I saw several struggles from white cross solvers in final

 

[MarcelP]

Okay,

1) 3x3: sub-30 average, sub 25 single
2) 3BLD: just do some solves, probably not going to have a succes.
3) 2x2: sub-13 average, sub 8 single
4) 4x4: sub-3:00 average
5) 5x5: sub-10:00 single
6) 3x3 OH: sub-2:00 average
7) Pyra: sub-40 average

1) Check!
2) DNS
3) Failed, nerves got to me.
4) I got a 2.30 - 2.40 average, but two solves where a few seconds over the 3 minute time limit so I got a DNF average.. Why in the name of... does that rule apply?
5) Same, I got a DNF because I can not do it in 4 minutes. I am pretty sure that in a year from now I still can not do that. So that is the 'Ontmoedigingsbeleid'?
6) Failed, lost all OLL 2 look from my memory for one hand.. LOL The day before I was still ok..
7) Check, I nailed it with almost sub 30 average..
