PB: 0.96s (It was a three move scramble I recognized)
Average: 10s (Yeah I'm awful)

3x3: Guhong and Zhanchi

PB: 9.66s (Got really lucky)
Average: ~17s

4x4: Shengshou and Rubik's (LOL)

PB: 1:01.24
Average: ~1:20

5x5: Broken Shengshou and Rubik's

How on earth did you get a 9.66 second solve without even knowing full 2-look OLL and PLL?

Either way… welcome!

Must have gotten really really lucky...

Welcome

I had a 5 move cross, 3 move 1st F2L then 2-4 went in using 12 moves with LL skip. You can get really lucky.

Welcome on the forum, and have fun!

 

[hkpeople]

the 9.66 second solve was around 3-4 moves for the cross then f2L was a blur then i remembered doing sune then PLL skip

You are saying you had a 20 move speedsolve?

 

[sneaklyfox]

Welcome! That sub-10 solve sounds crazy lucky. Incredible.

 

[sarathicse]

Welcome and have fun............

Bet you $5 that it was handscrambled.

21, forgot to mention AUF.
Not timed =(

Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. No need to be antagonistic. It's ultimately up to him to keep it as PB or not

 

[hkpeople]

correct me if i'm wrong but... aren't hand scrambles ultimately the same if you do them with a sufficient number of random moves?
because for my averages i don't see that much of a difference between hand scrambled solves and computer generated scrambles

There really isn't a big difference. I mainly do hand scrambles, but whenever I do computer generated scrambles I average about the same.

Me too, But I use 100 moves or so, as random as I can. I get faster times with computer scrambles.

If you handscramble you get very similar scrambles every time. almost everybody just repeats a pattern while handscrambling

I don't. I use a random orientation.

Doesn't matter (especially in bigger sessions)

And 100 or so moves, and I find it to be more random than a computer scramble.
