CMLL skip to 6 Move L6E. Not even sub 20. Messing up both blocks is not fun...

He came .08 away from his 5x5 average comp PB on Saturday due to his last two solves being over a minute. That would definitely be annoying to me.

1) Super-annoying. I do a VHLS to orient edges. Normally, I'd just insert, but sometimes I see an easy WV case. I do the case, and get a PLL skip, but then I see that my time isn't sub-20. It gets worse when I forget my AUF.
2) Even more annoying. I get a 2x2 PLL skip using LBL and slam the timer without doing an AUF. It sucks because I actually SEE that I have an AUF but I can't stop the reflex of putting the hands on the timer.
3) Never happens because it's that annoying. Doing an OH solve on a super-loose cube, getting an LL skip, doing an AUF, but the cube manages to pop during the AUF!
Yeah, I am haunted by AUFs.

F2L done by 7 seconds, OLL skip with a U perm -----> chance for sub 10 and then my cube(Chilong) pops.

I previously had that but I changed it
. I suppose a mod could change it but no one has got round to doing that yet.

I had this weird scramble were I had a U perm to do to solve the cross. I could not figure out a better way but I screwed up a G perm and I was at like 19 seconds or something. Decent for me. Then it ended up as a 41 second solve.

You could of traced the first f2l pair cause the U perm wouldn't effect anything else on the cube.

Too late. I tried to think quick but I had no time left in inspection. It's the G perm that screwed everything up.

As I said I couldn't think quick enough in inspection. I hadn't been prepared to do that algorithm anyway.

This is probably a noob thing, but in a similar vein, seeing the PLL, executing it, then realising you did the wrong PLL and you need to finish off with an A perm, but still hitting the timer anyway because your brain still thinks you did the right PLL.
