How do you have 9 LL skips?? I'm only a couple seconds slower then you and I have never gotten one.. I even know a bunch of EO stuff and some WV..
Don't know... About half of them have been VHLS though, so I wasn't sure if they just counted as ZBLL skips or not.

I know about the same number of LS things as you, but I've only ever gotten 2 :/

Lolwat I have 5 LL skips (4 timed and 1 untimed) and I know fewer LS things than either of you.

Shengshou 5x5 popped/exploded in homeroom right before the bell rang. Luckily my teacher had a plastic bag I could put the pieces in, but I think I lost some. Still sitting in that bag in my room because I'm too lazy to try and reassemble it.

Today at the competition in Edmonton. (jk it was in August) my 5x5 popped and the time was 4:00.XX. It was a pb but would have been sub 4. FML

Today at the Pune Fall Open V3, the organizer cheated and gave himself a 12 second average in the first round but got a 22 second average in front of the delegate in the final and was caught. I was 2nd in the first round(Really First), but in the final I got a pop,corner twist,DNF(M slice left),+2 and explosion in that order and I came like 2nd last.

Athens Winter Mystery 2015:
I was doing badly in 2nd round of 3x3, having got 2 sup-20s in the 4 solves I had done.
The last solve was really bad.
I was doing an F-perm at 17, when an edge piece popped. I squished the cube around in my hand, so that every piece came loose from the core. Then, I threw the core down on the table, walked back to where the people waiting for their cubes were, came back, stopped the timer with my left hand and my face, and then fell over. Ultimate ragequit.

>be me just now
>thinking.. left - up - ohh thats anti-sune
>wife "so that house on broadwaters road, the garage could be moved forward"
>thinking.. oops, slip rewind, thats better - still on for a good time here "er what?"
>wife "then the space beside the house could be used to build or extend"
>replace block- oh crap its all messed up.
>what??? Im trying to solve my cube here and your waffling on about someones house talking 3D stuff my heads already full of 3D thoughts!
>wife "well im trying to talk to you"
SO I'm a bad husband. But I didnt pick up my cube because I was into having a chat with the wife.
Do you ever just want people to "Foxtrot Oscar" and let you alone to chill and cube?
Im only a beginner cuber - will things get worse? I mean where will this end?

Well the better you get the easier it will be to hold a conversation while cubing.

Yeah, it's easy for me to talk while cubing because it's pretty subconscious. There's a video of Feliks solving math problems while solving the rubik's cube quickly.
EDIT: Here's the link, 17 minutes and 50 seconds into the video: https://youtu.be/8OYfdODL0IE?t=17m52s

Yesterday, I checked the Canadian Cubing events page to see when the next Vancouver competition is. I found out it's scheduled for Feb. 6th, which is during a youth retreat I have to go to. It would be my first comp. but the girl I like says I can't miss the retreat
Injured Cube
I was using my SS 7x7 when I accidentally dropped it. I picked it up and continued to use it when suddenly a corner popped off. The inner part stayed in the mechanism but the outer "Cube" fell onto the table. I was still able to turn it like normal without the end of the corner attached so I finished my solve. I was wondering what the best way to go about fixing this would be. I am pondering super glue. I may just order a piece from the Cubicle or something, if it comes down to that.

Superglue should work just fine
Btw, questions like this should be posed in something like the hardware or similar sub-forum.

I went to a comp yesterday, and they got behind schedule and set the soft cutoff for 2x2 to 6 seconds. No worries, I thought. I averaged sub 4 at home. My first solve, I mess up. 8.11. Oh well, I will just be careful next time. Yeah right. I get a 4.53. Or... actually... no, it was a +2. FML.
