Annoying fails?

[Genesis]

OH lockups.

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



*still sub-3:40*

Well, a sub 3:35 wouldve been nice
(yeah, im greedy)

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

Yeah, they used to leave it blank, no idea why its now DNF
Doesnt affect much, though.....

I was doing a 2x2-7x7 relay and forgot that it was a relay because of an insanely good 3x3 stage on 5x5 and stopped the timer without solving my 4x4.
(my solving order is 2-3-6-7-5-4)

I had centres on 6x6 done sub 50 and then 5/8ths of the cube crumbled in my hands

Lol 6x6.

At my first comp I forgot to execute the corners of my last multi cube, resulting in a 3/5 losing to Ollies 2/3 ((

Could of gotten a 13 second solve-which would of been my first sub-20, but then messing up on the edge cycle.

 

[Iggy]

At my comp last week, I got a 7:55 5BLD DNF, accidentally executed midge parity instead of wing parity at the end. Would've been AsR by over 2 minutes

Forgot to say this...

Absolute miserable failure for my OH round a week ago. 3/5 solves were dot cases I didn't know a OH alg for, and all were terrible diagonal swap PLLs. Average wasn't even sub-21.


To make matters worse, I would have gotten another chance in finals if the organizers didn't change the number if finalists from 8 to 6 >: (

Not an actual speedsolving fail, but just yesterday my computer decided to crash and somehow clear my google chrome settings, including my saved 4x4 average on qqtimer...I was 800 solves into an average of 1000 that I've been working on since late October

Ouch!

must have been incredibly painful :/

Well. You'll get it next time :tu

 

[VeryKewlName]

It sucks when you get an easy scramble but you get a huge lockup so it takes as long as a normal solve.

 

[STOCKY7]

All of them have to be with BLD for me:

Having an easy scramble and fast memo and then...:
1. Making an execution error
2. Forgetting about the flipping flipped edge in DB (or just not seeing it)
3. Twisting a corner the wrong way
4. Forgetting corner memo (where corners are solved last)

Although I got a PB on 7x7 it's kinda a fail is well. I got 14:47 if you were wandering. I was on my last 2 centres and kept screwing things up and then I messed up the centre I was on and half the other centre. I probably would have got like 12.xx or something. I don't thing sub 10 though.

Finished F2L in 7 seconds, then 7 second LL
I hate Gd perm

I love Gd. R2 F' R U R U' R' F' R U2 R' U2 R' F2 R2.

 

[guysensei1]

6x6, first 2 centers done in 22 seconds, solve wasn't even sub-3...

 

[AlexMaass]

Buying a LanLan skewb or Dayan 2x2, then realizing how terrible it is

The Dayan 2x2 is great though, if it pops/explodes just tighten it.

Why did he even consider sledging?

I think he confused it with R' F R U R U' R' F'
