holy sh** that's crazy!

I'm not going to post anymore 5x5x5BLD results until this post is 10 pages away...

I'll have a faster time by then.

so uhh, 6:31.75 (2:31)

That cancels my statement, so...

15:02 (oh my god it looks so pathetic )

But it's a nice warm up for danish open next week

Wow, good job! No, it doesn't look pathetic. Ville is just incredible.

That record is so going down that weekend. It would be quite possible for Chris to get knocked out of the top 3! (I hope Chris can get it back someday, though.)

16:02.05.

You're one of the people who might do it. I can't believe how quickly you got fast at this! Of course, doing 20 in one day might have something to do with it...

 

[blah]

You might find this unbelievable, Mike, but my execution is WAY slower than yours. I memo in 6 to 7 minutes

12:26.58. On tape

14 centers solved after reorienting. 23 letters for wings. 14 for midges. 8 for corners.

O_O nice!

Okay, you're faster than me now. I figured you'd get there soon, and now it's happened. Congratulations. (And that means your execution is now as fast as mine. )

For that matter, you're probably basically faster than Chris too. I think he's had a few solves faster than that, but not many, and your current trend seems to indicate you are likely faster than he is overall now.

Maybe we can get lucky and have a full podium at Indiana for 5x5x5 BLD all faster than the former WR? (And the funny thing is, probably still none of those people will actually get the WR, thanks to Helsinki.)

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

That's only possible at 5x5BLD

Let's do it.

With me placing first, of course.

 

[blah]

Then I'll just do a 30-minute solve to make sure I don't DNF :rolleyes: Like, seriously, I'm sick of DNFing big cubes BLD

Or Gdansk. I hope Rafal will go to Polish Open. (He is not registered yet.)

That would be awesome.

YES
First sub-1 3x3 BLD!!!
56.11
My previous PB was 1:26.61 since like half a year!!!! BOOM
R2 D2 U' L' R2 D2 U B L D2 U2 R2 D2 R2 D' L B F R' U' L' B' L R2 B2
extremely lucky, Ville, you MUST sub20 on it (cct scramble)


Solution(white text colour):
Corners:
orient: y2 L'U'LU'L'U2L RUR'URU2R'
3-cycle UBL-UBR-UFL: yxL2U2L'D'LF2L'DL'
25 moves
Edges:
UF: U2M'U2M'
DR: UR2U'(M2)UR2U'
BR: UR'U(M2)URU'
RF: x U'R2U(M2)U'R2U
BU: x' UR'U'lU'RU(M2)U'R'Ul'URU'
BL: U'LU(M2)U'L'U
orient DL-DB: zx (UM')4 L (UM')3 Ul'
64 moves

Total: 89 STM.
Memorization time: 28
Execution time: 28 (3,1786 TPS)

 

[blah]

26.56. You aren't seriously counting that as a PB, are you?

 

[Mike Hughey]

That's funny. I got a 1:11.56 on it - total failure. I got freaked out by the corners - I couldn't remember the algorithm. Should have been sub-1 for sure.

And no, that definitely shouldn't count as a PB. It's ridiculous, and clearly lucky.

I had 76 STM. That's because of all the bad orientation algs.

42.56................

I think I did corners the fastest way- r U R' U' r' F R F' M2 U' M2 U2 M2 U' M2 U2 which takes about 3 seconds or so.

I probably could have done visual edges if I had known they were going to be THAT easy.

Not the way I did edges but a nice short (54 STM) solution is:

Spoiler

scramble: R2 D2 U' L' R2 D2 U B L D2 U2 R2 D2 R2 D' L B F R' U' L' B' L R2 B2

Corners: r U R' U' r' F R F' M2 U' M2 U2 M2 U' M2 U2 (16)

Edges:
xy' R U R' U' M' U R U' r' yx' (25)
x' R U M2 U' R' U M2 U' x (33)
L2 U M2 U' L2 U M2 U' (41)
x2 R' U2 R2 U R' U' R' U2 r U R U' r' (54 moves STM)

26.56.

1:11.56

42.56

What.

 

[blah]

Slower than my previous one, but... 12:32.38. On tape too.

 

[KJiptner]

sick improvement!

26.56. You aren't seriously counting that as a PB, are you?

Well it is not my nonlucky PB, but it is was not a scramble I tried out because someone told me that it's easy. And I'm not counting it as a serious PB because it will be bad if I don't break it by the end of the year or something. So, it is my lucky(very-very-very lucky) PB.
