Sub 1 two edge flip? That's amazing. I suck at M U triggers.

i think dennis does nothing but practice that all day every day though

The 2-7 relay was so much fun (although I wasn't doing it, I was watching)

Here are some lines from the relay:
"Martini!"
Erik: "Do I get a martini when I POP?"
Oliver: "No, you only get beer."
(I hope I have the names correct)
...

"Beer"
"Martini"
and so on

I don't remember what was said on the big pops though.

Daniël (6 years old) waited 5 minutes after donning the blindfold, then asked if he could see the cube again? After that he donned the blindfold again and gave up.

Well, Daniel is 7 now, but what happened on his second blindfold attempt was that he put on his blindfold after memorising. Before starting to turn he wanted to go through his story-line one more time. Then he realised that he couldn't remember his first edge-Word. He tried to remember it for about five minutes not aware of the rule that could still take a look at his cube because he hadn't turned it yet. When he stopped and took off his blindfold, I told him he could still continue because he hadn't turned his cube yet.
He tried for a minute but his concentration was gone...

Daniel and I were a bit dissapointed after the blindfold session. I also wasn't able to get a good solve. But.... we will give it a another try next time!

Me: "6^3 finished, with no pops !"
Arnaud: No pops ? Oh, you cheated !"

Hakan: I didn't pop either!
You are all cheaters!
