Kubaroo Open 2011 (Melbourne)

[Tim Major]

PS: If Faz got there earlier, there might've been a 4 or 5s world record. There was a super easy scramble for (yellow xcross?), that only me and Luke Bruce could take advantage of, and then ridiculously easy F2L (2 4 move pairs), easy LL. Luke Bruce popped, doing Y-perm at 8s, ended with 54 after some juggling, I then went on the same station, same judge, same pop, at the same time. He popped at 8s doing a Y-perm, I popped at 8s doing a T-perm. I don't think anyone else in the group solves yellow (we're dual white/yellow). So the competition for the 2nd Australian sub 10 goes on. Congrats to Luke for a 10.08, with another lockup, following on from 10.0x last comp, lockup.

Thanks to all the help, I'm sorry we had to drop skewb, and restrict 3x3 to an 8 person final rather than 16, but considering we finished up at 5:55, I doubt we would've fit 8 people in 3x3 and 9 skewb competitors in 5 minutes. I myself did terribly results wise, in every area other than 4x4 (op 9/10, pp 7/10, but still good averages).
Results will be up in a few days.

TimMc will be uploading them, at least some of them, I'm not sure when, but it's 7:40pm, so give him some time (ie: a day or two)

Edit: Cameron's 2x2 1.63 scramble (from Faz's memory), U2 R' U R U' B. Cameron's solution: R y' U R' U' R U2. Unfortunately for him, he didn't see the LL skip, he knew the OLL would skip but he thought he'd have J-perm.

There was a super easy scramble for (yellow xcross?),

I Presume you mean the one where there was a massive 1x2x2 block. I'm a yellow crosser but I messed up that solved.

Also in Pyraminx one scramble had a complete corner solved. Would of been a 1 look solve if someone knows flay method.

Really nice scrambles some of them were.

 

[caseyd]

there was no block, an extra move in there somewher for the gross made a pair, and inserting that set up another easy one

... Are you serious?

Here's this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLHiCAsjXlQ&feature=feedu
Faz didn't know it was WR, until I confirmed on my phone. We knew it was close, I was pretty sure it was, but ya, that's what the ending was about.

 

[rubiksarlen]

was the 5x5 bld a last min addition to the comp or what?

 

[Arsonist]

Has anyone a vid of his 4x4 WR?
