Last Layer Competition

[ThomasJE]

I was inspired by rubikmaster's F2L Competition, and there wasn't an existing competition like this, so I decided to make one. Anyone can join, as long as they can solve the last layer. All scrambles will be created by the OLL Trainer scrambler on Prisma Puzzle Timer. There will be scrambles for 2H and OH. At the end of the scramble, the F2L should already be solved. You scramble with your standard last layer colour as the U face. If you want to find your average F2L:LL ratio, look at the F2L Competition. If you use Roux, then you may be interested in the First 2 Blocks Competition and the LSE Competition. The rules are as follows:

1. The WCA regulations are used, unless stated.
2. The scrambles that are given will be used.
3. Scrambles are generated by the 'Fridrich: OLL Training' scrambler on Prisma Puzzle Timer.
4. A 15 second inspection time may be used.
5. For 2H, the 'Average of 12' system will be used.
6. For OH and 3x3 on 4x4, the 'Average of 5' system will be used.
7. The overall leaderboard for 5 rounds are ordered by the mean of your best 3 averages. You must complete at least 3 averages to count.
8. A new round will start every Wednesday and Saturday, in this thread at around 19:00 GMT.

If there are any problems, post with your questions.

Here are the scrambles for Round 1:

Bad, bad, BAD idea for creating a new thread every week. I strongly recommend you keep it in this thread and ask a mod to change the title to "Last Layer Competition".

EDIT : The first 3 scrambles result in an entirely scrambled cube. I think it's safe to say the rest do.
EDIT2 : Fixed. Thanks.

I completely agree.

@ThomasJE, Is it alright if I change the title?

I was worried that people may not want to skip to much later pages. I may keep a thread for 5 rounds/weeks, for example, and then continue the competition on a new thread for rounds 6-10.

I'll wait for other people's opinions on this, but for now, the name will be the same.

EDIT: The name has now been changed.

 

[rubikmaster]

LOL,I'm glad you were inspired by my F2L competition.I will definitely join this.

 

[Jaycee]

Suit yourself, although I'd like to point out that every forum competition that I know of (besides the weekly competition, but at least that makes sense) stays in one thread. They're all quite successful.

No theres no point of having a billion threads for this comp. Change name if there will only be 1 thread.

 

[Kirjava]

It's not hard to click on the last page.

 

[Yuxuibbs]

I think we should do a thread that lasts the whole year or 1/2 a year just because it's easier. It will be annoying going through pages of posts to find the round's scrambles but it's easier.

 

[Sa967St]

2H:
3.84, 3.25, 3.59, 4.22, 4.09, 3.39, (4.65), (2.32), 4.36, 2.85, 4.20, 3.94 => 3.77

Round 1

Two Hands = 4.70
5.31, 4.20, (5.61), 4.63, 5.24, 4.57, 4.71, (2.02), 4.82, 3.31, 5.54, 4.64

Normally I average about 6.2 for LL but without inspection. Inspection helped. My LL still sucks anyway.

 

[Krag]

2H round 1 Average = 5.79
5.16, 4.98, 4.12, (8.20), 7.15, 5.98, 6.17, 5.98, 5.69, (3.92), 6.15, 6.48

 

[Kirjava]

(3.67), 2.61, 2.80, 3.05, 3.09, 3.48, 3.27, (2.00), 2.76, 2.11, 3.36, 3.36 = 2.99 avg12

OLLCP for everything except; 6 & 7 - OLL, 8 & 9 - CLL+1

 

[cubernya]

By the way : I use partial edge control, so I always have some edges oriented. However, just from the first scramble, I had to 2-look it since I didn't know the case. So what if we use partial edge control? Too bad?

 

[emolover]

What is the point of the BLD scrambles? Nobody just does the top layer.

 

[chrissyD]

(4.23), 4.24, 5.74, 5.81, (6.59), 5.56, 5.34, 5.24, 5.20, 4.99, 6.28, 4.69 = 5.31

My LL is just pathetic :fp

 

[oranjules]

2H :
5.05, 3.99, 4.57, 5.85, (6.09), 4.56, 4.40, 4.27, (3.93), 6.05, 4.50, 5.20 = 4.84
Wow, i'm averaging sub-13... I know where i have to improve

 

[That70sShowDude]

For some reason I used my really bad standard F perm on the 5.
