[WR] Lucas Etter - 4.90 3x3 single!

[CriticalCubing]

Feliks dropped down to 4th in the world now. This hasn't happened till now from Sep 2010

 

[Cale S]

Collin went from 1st in the world to 3rd in the US... lol

 

[OLLiver]

Is this on video?

I don't *think* that Lucas's is, but I know that Keaton's is.

Feliks dropped down to 4th in the world now. This hasn't happened till now from Sep 2010

Out of his main events (3x3-7x7 + OH) 3x3 single is now twice as bad as his next worst world rank, and his 3x3 sum of ranks is 5: worse than any of his other main events.

wtf is even happening

Collin went from 1st in the world to 3rd in the US... lol

On a day where he broke his own WR, no less. Insane

Wat. After returning to the cubing world for the first time in like 5 years, that's about as fast as I used to be at 2x2. I'VE MISSED SO MUCH. Congratulations Lucas

I heard that there is a video of Lucas's 4.90

 

[Tyler Comfy Hat]

Wow, three sub-wr solves in one day? And I thought it would've taken a couple more years before an official sub-5 solve, this is crazy.

Hoping there is no screaming child this time.

Sharing your hopes. Also hoping there wasn't a kid shouting, "Wut wut, WERLD REKKUUUUURD. WHADDAHECK" obnoxiously behind the camera to cement himself in the moment. But that's probably too much to ask.

 

[Praetorian]

lets break WR for most forum posts in one thread in a day

 

[b0ssGuy23]

was chatting on Skype, I posted this:

the 4.90 page beats the previous UWR for most thread replies in one day easily
Previous UWR was my 0.62 2x2 single

@Praetorian This is what my friend texted me

There isn't. Just a typical (loud) Maryland reaction.

me logging into the forums after being out all evening
congrats, sub-5 barrier is finally broken, and it's cool that you finally got a 333 wr after many great averages, lucas

 

[conn9]

Congrats Lucas, and Keaton too! I thought it would be a while yet before the 5 second barrier was broken

 

[Myachii]

Omg I would crease if some kid stood right behind Lucas and recreated the screaming from the 5.25 xDDD

inb4 some kid with a camera happened to catch it on film and will upload it before Lucas, gaining himself >2,000,000 views and more than the solver's own video... Not gonna name names dgcubes

[qwertycuber]

Feliks should have been to that competition.

 

[AlexMaass]

and Collin; the reaction was crazy he got swarmed and mobbed lol

 

[Tony Fisher]

Obviously a fast track and probably wind assisted.

 

[b0ssGuy23]

With all of this, today feels like a dream.

3 WR's, 2 of which are official and counted.
