Cubing FML

[rubikmaster]

Today I had a two move cross and a really easy F2L pair after that.And then my cube popped after the first move.And then when I finish the cube I get a PLL skip. FML

About a month ago, me and a friend, who also cubes, were cubing in a study hall together, using my Guhong. Some other kid comes and disassembles my cube. (Once he saw me pop out an edge, and wanted to see if I could assemble it again, if he disassembled it, so I let him. He had disassembled it a few times before) I don't really mind about this, as I can assemble it quickly. But then another kid comes over, pulls on the core, breaking a center piece. The cube was in a bag for almost a month. FMCL.

Luckily Brad, from Puzzle Addictions, is amazing, and gave me a spare Guhong center piece with my order.

I had a book to read for class. Like all good procrastinators I cubed for a while starting at 8p.m. I decided to read and looked at the clock 3a.m. Forever Mindblowing Life

During a modding of my newest Zhanchi, my dog trotted by and chewed up my newly filed down edge pieces.

FML.

Just now, I was filling in the Private Forum application to respond to a thread I was interested in. I accidentally sent it before I was done. You can only submit an application once every 3 months. FMCL.

I guess it is unlikely I will get in anyway. ):

I almost had a sub 1:20 4x4 solve. Instead, the cube locks up immensely during the last two turns.

My ZhanChi with anchors just EXPLODED, and I'm missing two edges. FML

I just realized that I spend more time on this website than I do actually cubing.

It's funny cause my Speedsolving.com to cubing irl ratio is about 5-1

At least it's not just me

1. went to a friend. he complained, that he never gets ll skips (we were stoping our times all the time) he didn't stop his time once and got a ll skip. went to the phone and came back. -> 2. untimed ll skip in a row

2. i went home. an other friend came and complained, too. -> 2 untimed ll skips in a row

3. he went home. on my first solve i was actually pretty good, but then went slower on purpose and got a ll skip (would have been 11-13 sec but it was 25.xx -.- end of the solve: R U2 R' y L' U L U [just edge control])

(both of my friends complained right before they got their 2 ll skips in a row lol)

at least it's not just ME...
well actually i started to practice more often monday or so...

Was cubing and had a chance at first sub-20 avg 24

Last solve was a 21.644. Session Avg: 20.018
FML. (At least the next day I got a 17.502 avg. of 5)

Average of 12: 13.79

9. 16.05
10. 11.90
11. (17.34)

Showing how ridiculously inconsistent I am.
Seriously.

3 11.xx
2 12.xx
2 13.xx
1 14.xx
2 15.xx
1 16.xx
1 17.xx

Like, wtf man. Today's just not my day.

THEN, after trying to roll the average, I got a scramble with THREE F2L'S PAIRED, and one that was solved with R U R'. Then I forgot how to do OLL, and flipped **** because of it.

That awkward moment you realise, that you forgot that OLL.

I created a new magic trick using the rubik's cube (based on Rubik's Remembered) and I have conflicting feelings about "cheating in order to do something which is more-or-less possible to do without cheating" for entertainment purposes.
(I do two fake blindsolves, one practiced scramble, and a nosepeak. I explain on the first one it is a practiced scramble, but the solve with the nosepeak has a fake explanation about how I can solve a cube I never saw blindfolded)
It's kind of giving me a headache.

BTW, today for no reason i forgot the V perm. Learnt it again and everything went fine. Then, and for apparently no reason, it stopped working. For two hours I kept doing the V perm without success, resulting in a messed up cube every single time. Went to the alg list, do it following the alg, and again, messed up cube. I spent 3 hours doing a V perm wrong, until I realised I was fortetting to do the y rotation. FML.

Today, I hand-scrambled my cube, went slow on F2L, did not get any skips, and managed to significantly chop seconds off my best. All this in a train station, with the train arriving, and while receiving a call on the mobile whose stop watch I was using. >:/ I couldn't find the time. FML.
