Annoying fails?

[Leo123]

Hey guys after I just got a pyraminx fail I decided to make this thread. Post any of your fails about any type of puzzle. In terms of my fail I got 8 seconds on Pyraminx and my best was previously 14. At the end I did an edge cycle the wrong way.

This is more of a bad habit then a fail, but I drop my cube like every 5 solves during OH..
I also like the idea of a thread. Can a mod change the name to "Fails Thread" or at least, "Annoying Fails"

I previously had failures thread but I changed whilst postimg and can't change it. That's an idea.

Messing up parity algs during big cubes. I hardly ever do it now, but I used to do it all the time.

Getting the NR average and then losing it moments later.

 

[penguinz7]

Randomly forgetting how to do PLL parity at a comp. It wasn't in an official solve though. It was an alg I learned moths ago and I was sub 1:10 at the time...

Needing to redo half a center during an official 7x7 attempt, 7.22 skewb average when im sub 6 skewb globally....

Or "Cubing FML".

sometimes i have the same problem with some PLL's, i don't know why, but if i concentrate to hard to a couple of algorithms they vanished completly...
on my last comp i forgot the V-Perm, that was so embarrassing xD

Getting a 23.28 ao5 one day after getting so many sub 20 solves...

Forgetting what setup moves you did while doing a commutator in BLD.

 

[guysensei1]

OH lockups.

Getting 6x6 3 cross edges+centers in ~1:20 and the solve isn't sub-2:45

Needing to redo half a center during an official 7x7 attempt, 7.22 skewb average when im sub 6 skewb globally....

*still sub-3:40*

Or "Cubing FML".

Naaah. It doesn't appear in the "recent threads" on the home page. I personally much prefer this. Don't have to go hunting for it to post in or read it as long as it is active.

Ao 5: three 10s, a 17, a 14. Followed by 6 consecutive 11s. Would've been pb ao 12. But I got another 15.

 

[cashis]

Gets three 11s in a row and gets a 14 and 17 :-(

 

[JemFish]

Store-bought 2x2 popping when I could have gotten a sub-5 solve.

 

[AlexMaass]

DNFed first solve of my comp at CCFC Winter 2014 in pyraminx, timer starting fail, the guy asked me if it was my first time xD.

Thanks to a 3.77 and 3.80 I won the comp though.

 

[guysensei1]

Lol I DNFed my first official feet solve. I wanted to stop it a U2 off so I can 'abuse' the +2 but as I stopped the timer I made another move hehe.


I didn't attempt the last 2 because I exceeded the cut off and somehow they became DNFs instead of being left blank. (Is this something I should be concerned about?)

DNS's being recorded as DNF's is quite common in my opinion. If you are really concerned about it, you could always contact the delegate for the event

It wasn't even supposed to be a DNS. There should have not even been anything recorded there I think. Idk
