Easy / Lucky / Hard / Weird scrambles Thread

This scramble is perhaps the best I have ever gotten. All 3 pairs were made for me, one of which was part of an X-Cross, and the 4th set up into a 3 mover. I finally got my sub-8 single. (7.80). I tried down solving it but all I could get it to was 7.21. I'll try again when I am not so nervous/excited. Here is how I solved it. (Scramble yellow top, green front if you want white cross). Crazy thing is that I slightly hesitated on my 3rd cross edge, and ever so slightly hesitated on OLL as well, so with no mistakes at all, it could have been low7/sub-7.

Would love to see what better cubers could get as their time!
 
Just got this ridiculous 2-gen(R U) scramble from CSTimer. I messed up really badly but downsolved to a 0.94. For comparison, a normal 2-gen scramble.

Normal- F2 R B2 R' L2 D' B2 R U2 R' B2 L F2 R2 D2 L' B2 L2
The scramble- U R U2 R2 U R2
5 move F2L and an LL skip- 6 moves. This may be the luckiest 2 gen scramble anybody has ever gotten.
 
I got this very easy scramble from CubeDesk.
I got a time of 2.99 on 2x2.
The scramble was F2 U2 F’ U2 F’ R’ F R2 U’

My first time sucked, but I improved it.
 
I just got my clock pb average of 5.82 seconds (my previous best was 6.54) and a single of 5.39 (my previous was 5.48). The scrambles were insane:
