Danish Open 2010

This was my best competition yet. I had lots of fun and nice results. Thanks to everyone for helping out.

Here's som dyk's:

- scrambling for a round of square-1 and then a round of megaminx when your tired, too warm and didn't drink enough can make you feel really bad?
- I most likely scrambled a megaminx while fully asleep?
- With this competition we more than doubled the number of official danish competitors?
- that Frank popped in almost every event including feet solving?
- that's actually quite normal and popping is no longer called popping but Franking?
- Macky came to Danish Open instead of french?
- I competed heads up with Macky in the 3x3 final and I "won" the second solve?
- Macky won the other 4 with sub 12 times, I think (I obviously didn't get the time to fully notice)?
- Both Macky and I got PB avg in the 3x3 final?
- A lot of competitors went to Macky's Pizza for dinner?
- Both Simon, Erik and I got our first competition 4x4BLD solves?
- Erik didn't make it to the 4x4BLD podium and I forgot to give him honourable mention? sorry :)
- My first attempt for 5x5BLD was interupted by a radio suddenly tuning in on a german news channel, a janitor who kicked my arm while trying to stop the radio and a centerpiece pop? (DNF midsolve)
- My 5x5BLD attempts were filmed in case of WR (no pressure :) )?
- I got PB 5x5BLD on the second attempt and that made me very happy?
- Henrik was very nervous in the 3x3 final and I ended up becoming the Danish Champion 2010 :D
- Camilla and I may be the worlds first husband and wife national champions?
- All of the 400+ muffins that Camilla made seemed to dissapear?
- And the wonderfull cubecake aswell?
 
Did you know:

Erik DNFed a solve with a slice turn, this was in Pyraminx
Trine sat the whole weekend typing in all results.
Sébastien was the one to find the most errors, Trine didn't like him in the end.
Sébastien didn't notice Fabians 3.83 clock "solve" (was 31 sec) (Type error)
All persons was in the same group all weekend, I was in group 1 in all events.
I might be the fastest person on 2x2 not using CLL/EG (I use LPO/SS)
I messed up in the finals, I had to manny nerves for the first two solves.
I lost a lot of DK records this weekend.
This was a great comp.
Arnaud brought two of Ton's timers but brought back 3?
Arnaud hopefully had a good weekend, his last comp in Europe for some time.
Macky did 5x5 :D
Frank-ing is very common for Frank
Macky would have won the FMC with 30 moves, if he had not written the inverse solution.
Many hated the FMC scramble
I hope to see all of you competitors again.

Fewest moves scramble:

B' F' L2 U2 F L B' D' U' B D' L2 B R' D' L B R2 D (19)

I got 47. Found several 7 moves 2x2x2 blocks and then everything went wrong. But I blame that on my FMC skills :)

John Tamanas,
Phil Thomas,
Sam Boyles(you are tied with him).

I know for a fact those guys didn't use CLL.

Cool I had no idea so I guessed. What method(s) did they use?

another did you know:

The youngest judge judging alone was 9 years old, and he did a great job.
Two different Megaminx'es lost one pink edge tile each during scrambling/ walking to the timer.
Both tiles where found, the last 5 min. before we shut of the lights for the night Sunday.

I left Macky at a danish train station a little before midnight, bought him a ticket and said "take the next train, the airport is that way" and left him...
Hope he took the right train (and that he is still alive...)
 
I got 31 on that fewest moves scramble. I found a nice start, but the ending could have been better.

Solution: F' U' L B2 U' B D2 L z2 U2 F U F' U' F' U' F L U' R U L' U' R' F' L' B' U' B L U2 L'

I used R' pre-move:

2x2x3: F' U' L B2 U' B D2 L z2

F2L: U2 F U F' U' F' U' F U2 F'

Solve edges: F U. F' L' B' U' B L U2 (3 moves cancelled)

Insert U L U' R U L' U' R' at the dot to solve the corners, cancelling two moves.
 
Did you know?

- I got my first 4x4 BLD!!!!! The last part of the solve is on video. I somehow +2-ed it xD
- After that I also gave 5x5 a shot, the result was not even as bad as I expected, must've done some wrong setup moves, most centres and wings were correct
- also I finally got my sub-20 OH avg :D after 18,19,19,24 I thought like 'nooo not again' but still managed to get 20.03 on the last solve with 6 seconds V-perm xD
- FMC was fail
- Feet was fail, first solve 3 moves to go on G perm, somehow messed up so I could start all over but had the cross and a pair already made...
- the level of 2x2 was crazy? I ended 4th with a sub-4 average...
- I won the flødeboller race by 2 seconds? :D
- after that I wasn't very hungry anymore....
- Thanks to Jesper for letting a LOT of people stay at his place!
- 4 people in a 2 person bed is a bit too much?
- 3x3 was total FAIL
- Nora made it to her first finals? :D:D so proud of her :)

John Tamanas and Sam Boyles used Ortega, and Phil Thomas used OFOTA iirc.

sam used LBL :p

phil used tons of methods, guimond/ss/ofota/ortega. He may have used a CLL here or there, but he was definitely a huge fan of PBLs (david's idol)

Hi Lars,

I tried the scamble, result :
U F D F D' F D F' D' F D F2 D2 L F2 L2 F L2 U' F D' R F' U2 F2 L D R' (28)
(in ± 45min)

explanation:
on inverse scramble:
pre-scramble-move: U'
almost 2x2x3: R D' L' F2 U2 F R' D (8)
F2L: F' U L2 F' L2 F2 L' D (16)
LL: D F2 D' F' D F D' F' D F' D' F' (27)
premove correction: U' (28)
The regular scramble looked pretty sh!!t to me, but Teewu found a nice start on it.

My solution for the fewest moves event xD:
L F R L' B R D R' F L' U2 B2 D B' U2 B D B' U z2 // a 2x2x2 block that I expan to triple x-cross by using keyhole...

U B' U' B L U L' B' U' B2 U2 B' U' B U' B' U' R' F R' B2 R F' R' B2 R2 //last pair + LL
bad edges, insert last pair, sune, A-perm... can anyone find a better last pair+ LL? because 26 moves sounds like a bit too much for last pair+ LL XD

total: 45 moves
