Cubing FML

[KJ]

Got a LL skip...wasn't timing

Happens to me all the time.

You're lucky. I've been cubing for 1 1/2 years and I haven't even had an LL skip yet.

I guess that could still fit the thread.

I mean without a timer. I have had a PLL skip when I was timed, but that was my only sub-30.

I think you might have confused an LL skip with a PLL skip a couple posts back. Getting LL skips "all the time" is quite the feat if it really does happen to you! :O

In a 4x4 solve, during f2l, I put an edge in flipped, so later I thought I had parity. Then I had to do a cube rotation for PLL, and saw the flipped pair. >.<

About ~1 year ago, I strung a master magic with leftover magic parts just to see i I could do it. Now 1 year later, I can't restring the dang thing without it falling apart or being able to be solved -__________-

“Rubik's cube or Sudoku, it’s the same: weird stuff invented by the Chinese.”

Yeah, except Rubik's Cube wasn't invented by Chinese... and Early Sudokus were invented by the French....

Super easy 4x4 sim solve, no mistakes, 21 reduction, LL at 31. Double parity = 42.78. :fp 6tps. PB is 40.47

Spent about 3 hours doing 4x4. Set new PB for single, Ao5 and Ao12. Did ~50 solves when my mom asks to get on to check something. When I get back on SHE HAD CLOSED THE WINDOW!! I never improve in 4x4 so it was an awesome session and now it's gone. FMCL

Never let your mom near your computer while doing something important O.o I actually exclaimed "Ooh nooo!" when I read your story

 

[Specs112]

Never let your mom near your computer ever

Fixed that for you

I'm so frustrated right now. The only bright spot is that It's only one session and I'll improve more anyway. It's not like she broke my cube or anything.

What? That was my one and only LL skip ever. PLL skips and OLL skips happen often enough for that statement to make sense, but a full LL skip? I'll likely never experience such a thing again.

44 FMC DNF 1:02 hours :fp

I couldn't remember what my rotations before the solve were :fp
Well this is the last time I'm gonna to FMC (besides in comp)

 

[ben1996123]

Awesome 5x5 solve on qcube, 59.5ish reduction, crappy 3x3 and messed up V perm = 1:21.70, could have been like 1:14

three pll skips this weekend and I didn't time any.

9.98 +2 :3

 

[ottozing]

at melbourne open 2012 i got a ll skip on 5x5, and it still ended up being a normal solve. FMMFCL

 

[HeyCuber]

I got an OLL skip and the timer was at 22 seconds. Then I messed up the easy J (a) perm. And my PB is 25.91.

Yesterday, I was cubing in art class when one of my friends decided it would be funny to get clay on me. Instead of hitting my shirt, he hit my Lubix 2x2x2 which is now worse than a Rubik's brand. FML.
