Who would have thought practicing every day would yield improvement... :rolleyes:

1:54.08, beats my old pb by exactly 1 second.
I think this is a fairly ordinary scramble, but the targets were pretty basic I suppose.
R L B' L2 U2 B' F R2 F2 R' U2 L' F2 B' U' B' L2 B' F' D' F B R2 D' F'
Memo was at about 50, so I clearly need to work on my execution.

 

[Yes We Can!]

16:40 Venim Time for Faz: 16:15.46
16:40 Faz GOT IT
16:40 Faz ****YES

Faster than my PB -.-

 

[Zane_C]

4x4 BLD 25:47, third success.
I assigned edges the wrong targets a few times so that slowed my memorising down, my execution was really slow.
I love the feeling!

If you think 4bld success is a good feeling, just imagine the feeling of having a 5bld success! Now go and try one! Well done on the 4bld btw I can see a bit of a competition emerging between the Aussie bigcubeblders - shame none of your comps have it as an event

 

[Zane_C]

Yeah, the next comp coming up it'll be an event I'm pretty sure.
I practiced the + and x centers it's just the middle edges, on the the 3x3 I use TuRBo for them but that doesn't work on big cubes, so I think I'll learn M2 algs.

Yeah M2 is a fairly standard 5bld midges method. You can get away with 2 algs really (one to shoot to UF and one for DB) and work out which edges will be flipped at the end. Or you can learn some pairs stuff, which isn't very many algs anyway.

hai my naem is cornelius and i use parity algs to slove edgez.

 

[Zane_C]

lol.

1:54.33!

This is my first sub 2 ever. I have been cubing for about 3 weeks now after a 1.5 year break. New memo system for edges is still slowing me down compared to visual but it has already improved my accuracy and will get faster soon I'm sure.

I really want a sub-1 by the end of the summer.

That's a big goal. What method are you using?

m2/freestyle corners/a lot of practice

PB 4x4x4bld: 8:14.03

I'm getting better at 4x4x4bld since i started doing them for weekly. This was the first one for this weeks weekly comp. It helped that I started doing the centers as last part to memo and first to execute. Memo was sub4 something.

 

[Aldo Feandri]

I made a monster, my gf solve 4x4x4 BLD in 11 minutes something.

1:24.63(26.14), 1:18.46(32.38), DNF(23.18), 1:16.48(25.92), 1:07.02(27.36)
= 1:19.86 avg5

Next solve was a 1:09 DNF cos I got the wrong letter =(
My exec is slow

1:54.32.
It wasn't lucky, but the targets were really easy to memorise visually.
Scramble: U2 B' D' U2 B' R' D2 B D2 R' B' D2 B2 L F2 B2 L2 D2 F' R2 D2 F2 R2 F R

EDIT: I tried this sighted and got a 12.37 PLL skip, but I won't count it as a pb because I've already solved the scramble even though it was BLD.

This avg5 failed, but I'm really happy with the times, I was really surprised with the last. Off by 3 edges!
1:54.32, 1:56.38, 2:00.85, DNF(2:30.67), DNF(1:30.33)

We have fazrulz, aronpm, rubixcubematt, and Zane_C all doing 4bld. We could have a podium at our first comp with 4bld =D

very easy scramble, but without warmup with warmup I would have done sub 50 probably
