Harvard Spring 2011

[Sa967St]

Was that the one I threw in the air accidentally or the 9 second z perm? It's hard to keep track of my litany of failures.

Was the Z perm <M,U> by any change? You had a really long MU Z perm in one of your solves at the Toronto Open Winter.

i was so close to getting qualified for the 4x4 average but as i was finishing parity i got a core misalignment and DNFed, i was so mad i almost though my cube against the wall. if somebody know a mod on a maru 4x4 to prevent core misalignments let me know by personal message on youtube. youtube.com/blackzabbathfan. thank you

Oh man, I was judging this one. I think you were about to start OLL/PLL after parity at like 1:40, but then got a core misalignment and couldn't fix it in time. So unlucky :-/

Also, thanks so much to the Harvard club and Tim and Bob and Jaclyn and and and co. for organizing! This was not an afterthought.

The 9 second Z-Perm. I was judging I think. looool

Either or, both were epic.

Or the 52.xx OH, pretty amazing overall.

It was a lot of fun, although I probably don't deserve second place.

Are you kidding bro? You're really fast.

Apart from my shenanigans, there were two fun stats that came out of this comp.

-9 of the 10 people who participated in 3x3 BLD got a solve. I wonder if there has ever been a higher percentage with a minimum of say, 8 or 10 competitors.
-I now have 14 sub 14s in competition to go along with 3 sub 13.10s, but I have no sub 13s. Tim ran the numbers and nobody is within four solves of that horrible, horrible stat.

Yes it was.

Yeah, your're TPS is super crazy. Nice job.

 

[Bob]

I wonder if I will ever match any more of my PBs, or if I have reached my plateau. I thought I broke several of them at Harvard, but apparently I have gotten faster solves that I have no recollection of whatsoever. :/

You should probably start cheating. I see no other way.

You could probably shave a second to two off your 6x6 and 7x7 PB's.
