Austin Fall 2009

So far...

It's going pretty well.
Casey and Weston both finally got sub 15 averages. :)
I had a 12.77 average in the first round. (Tying Pedro!) :p

My first round of 2x2 started off well, but ended up being 4.20. Meh.
I wonder how Justin and Rowe are doing in 2x2....
 
Did you know?

-Anthony doesn't do Pyraminx at all anymore, but he got NAR (3.68)? (Easy double x-cross)
-In 3x3 Anthony got a 10.91 nonlucky, followed by a sub 10 (9.69)?
-Anthony doesn't remember how lucky the sub 10 was because he went blank after he realized the cube was done?
-Everyone started celebrating after the sub 10 and several judges wandered off leaving their competitors confused?
-WestonMagic = BrianMagic?
-WestonOH = AnthonyOH (basically)?
-Weston finally got a sub 1 4x4 solve?
-Josh tried a 9 cube MultiBLD, but DNF'd because he ran out of time?
-3 different people had sub 15 averages at the competition?
-Texas in general is getting faster?
-MultiBLD was an epic fail by everyone?
-Casey got her first sub 15 competition average after cubing for 5 years?
-Going to Worlds = much less pressure at small competitions?
-Denny got his best solve ever during the competition (13.06)?
-Anthony didn't do very well in 2x2 (4.20 and 4.5x averages), but was happy to see that Rowe and Justin did better at MIT?
-There may or may not have been a guy named Denny at the competition?
- Anthony had a nice 12.77 average in the first round, then a 12.38 in the second?
-Apparently Weston is a ninja?
-The competition was incredibly hectic and we're all very surprised Sapan didn't have a heart attack?
-James Creswell is secretly learning ZZ-b, I was very surprised when I saw him get back to back PLL skips with weird OLL algorithms during the competition?
-He apparently knows and uses over 100 ZB algorithms?
-He's only been learning ZB for a couple months?
-James' dad is really nice?
-Weston is now officially a Texan and is required to go to all Texas comps?
-The shirts were a big hit and some people were disappointed I didn't have more to sell?
-The next batch of T-shirts are going to be epic?
-Weston lost a cube and stackmat and is currently hunting the culprit down?

Did You Know?

-I'm finally home from the 4 hour drive back home?
-MY RESULTS WERE COMPLETE FAIL? The only thing with pretty much NOTHING wrong with them was the first 2x2x2 round? Everything after that sucked in some way?
-My 2x2x2 arrived in the mail THE DAY OF the competition, wtfnopractice?
-I'm only writing about me at the moment, wtfselfish?
 
Yes--I am learning ZZ-b. So far I have learned about 90 algorithms (although I did not use them all yesterday: since recognition is still bad for sunes and antisunes, it is faster for now to orient and then permute). I try to learn one a day. I generate all the algorithms myself using Cube Explorer.

The competition went really well. I was especially fast in the first round (the 13 second solve was nearly a PB) and I met my goal of all sub-20 averages for 3x3.

Congratulations to Anthony for his sub-10 solve and all the other winners. I look forward to the next Texas competition.
 
Did you know?

Michael broke his pb (now 17.36), but it wasn't during the round?
Michael got his 3rd sub 19 in competiton? (18.9)

Anthony is amazing?
Joshua can do 70 push ups in under a minute?
Brian can kick himself in the head over 70 times in one minute?
Joshua is whipped?
An M slice of in BLD is a DNF?
Weston should cube OH even in the 2H?
Anthony is bad at making videos?
My ghost hands cube is secretly good?
Stickers are worth 2 dollars per face, and mini dienshangs are worth 15 bucks?
Team BLD is awesome?
doughnuts can be used to sabotage?
Michael can now solve the rubik magic?
People are really good at megaminx?
Salt shakers are fragile?

1) Duh, who doesn't know that?

2) Not officially.

3) I'm pretty sure I still won that contest

4) I thought it was pepper.

5) How am I perverted? Just because my nouns for some letters are inappropriate? I don't think that makes me perverted, I just use them because they are easier to visualize.

Fair enough, but it's more of how easily it comes to you and how easily you can picture it.
