Just a fun thread, nothing really special here. Some people say I act way too crazy when I get a PB, but I sometimes think they don't react enough. Welp, vote if you want and let's see. Also, I'll embed the links to the reactions in the poll. They're on a scale from 1 to 10 in loudness. (Is that even a word?)

1 - Christian Kaserer's 0.69 2x2 single
2 - Yohei Oka's 1.93 Pyraminx single
3 - Mats Valk's 5.55 3x3 single
4 - Feliks Zemdegs's 2:23.55 7x7 single
5 - Erik Akkersdijk's 7.08 3x3 single
6 - Jonatan Kłosko's 1.10 Skewb single
7 - Bingliang Li's 8.65 Square-1 single
8 - Yang Hai's 8.27 OH single
9 - Nathaniel Berg's 3.73 Clock single
10 - Drew Brads's 1.32 Pyraminx Single

Have fun!
 
I'm a 1-4 depending on what it event it is. My 3x3 single wasn't broken for almost 3 months so that was about a 4, but when I beat that again twice in a week I had pretty much no reaction. For other events except 5x5 I show no emotion since I don't really care.
 
Oh boy, how many times my brothers complain of how many times I scream and shout after getting an awesome solve, not just PB.
I don't catch much on cam, but if I got a PB in a comp, like at home, it would be 10 - like drew brads except maybe more wild!! : P
 
Generally I don't much show reaction. I don't really care much about singles that much, the average is what matters to me
2 for me. I would just smile or laugh it off

It varies for me depending on whether someone else is around. I usually react silently if I'm alone or someone's watching me, but I'll make some noise if someone's nearby but not right next to me.
 
I usually react exactly similar to Feliks. See the timer if possible, decide if its going to be a PB and then smile it off. Does that mean that I'll be as fast as Feliks :O
 
Just to clear things up, I'm talking about at home, no one's with you, and whichever PB you care most about. :P
In this case, I'm sort of at an 7, but sometimes I'll stretch to a 10 if it's a really big one for me like 3x3 single or Pyra avg5.
Also, when someone's around, like cubing in public or at a comp, I'm sort of a 5 or 6. Except for my official OH single. My reaction was stupid and was a 10.
 
the last time I reacted to a single was my first sub 6. other than that, the most recent reaction I remember was a (silent) fist pump to my 6.65 ao 5.
 
Depends on the event.
For events that I don't do a lot, I might pick it up and get all my PBs on every solve, and not react at all.
For events, I might be 1-2.
On the other hand, when I got my first sub-10 3x3, it was 9-10
