8.97 Techincally non lucky:

U' F2 U' D R' B2 R2 B' U F U2 R' U R D' B F' R2 L' D R B D F2 U2
Cross: x y U2 R D' x' U R D' x' (Missed the easier cross on the opposite side)
F2l 1: U2 F R' F' R (I wanted to save both pairs)
F2l 2:R' U R
F2l 3: U' L U' L' (I wanted to preserve back left pair)
F2l 4: L' U L
Oll: U' F R U' R' U' R U R' F'
Pll: R2 u R' U R' U' R u' R2 F' U F

43 moves or 40 with cancellations (I took them) so <5 tps O.O Personal best!
Almost all LRU, but still :p

Pretty interesting scramble. There's either a really easy cross on L, or you can try to make an extended cross with the preformed 2x2x1.

F R2 U' L d L2

I don't see any 2x2x1, though.

OMG, :fp. Just realized what happened. I was using my Stackmat for qqtimer, and hadn't entered the time yet, so I took the previous scramble. :\
Sorry, don't have the original scramble anymore. To sum it up, it was basically just a 3 move cross on green, but there was a 2x2x1 block (not in relation to the green cross). Sorry again. :(

Square 1 EASY -
(1,-4) / (0,6) / (6,0) / (3,-3) / (-3,0) / (-3,-1) / (1,-3) / (6,0) / (0,6) / (3,5) / (3,-2) / (6,3) / (0,3) / (-3,6) / (6,-3) / (-3,0)

-fix square (2 moves) -[(0, 3) / (6, 3) /]
-permute top& bottom layers - 2 j PERMS (4 moves) [(3, 3) / (-3, 0) / (3, 3) / (0, 3) /]
-fix parity (3 moves) [(/ (6, 0) / (0, -6) / (6, 0) /]

so total: 9 moves! (7 with cancellation)
