What instrument do you play?

Trombone! I love playing it.

choza244 · Jan 7, 2012

Ok, this seems a good place to ask this: anyone here have tried the new mefferts megaminx? is it better than the mf8?

Thanks in advance

emolover · Jan 31, 2012

Yes it is dead. I have lost interest in megaminx for big cubes.

Fell free to run it for me.

No harm in trying.

I suggest this be a weekly not biweekly competition.

I would have participated this round but I was going to do it tomorrow.

Divineskulls · Feb 5, 2012

My apologies. I forgot to compete, myself, this week, and I thought that you ended rounds on saturdays, so I wanted to end it before I went to sleep. It will still be weekly, just this week, I didn't compete this week. And if you would like, you can do the solves tomorrow, and I'll edit them into my previous post.

Sorry if I'm doing something wrong. D:

2:44.76, 2:17.59, 1:57.52, 2:21.28, 2:38.54 = 2:25.80

Awesome single at the end

emolover · Feb 20, 2012

Feel free to take Over.

Divineskulls · Apr 18, 2012

Alright, so after a few months of hiatus, and some talking with emolover, I'm going to restart this thread. Everything is explained in the first post rules, but I will post them here anyway:

Here are the rules:
1. No spamming - No reserves.
2. Please be honest - it's not a win or die thing, just have some fun and competition
3. Use the scrambles I give you. I will be using WCA scrambles with 70 move in Pochmann style. So R-- means turn the whole cube R2' and U just means a simple top layer turn.
4. We will be using the AO5 format. (Average of 5)
5. The scrambles/results will be out on Sunday 8 PM ET and they'll be due the following Sunday 8 PM ET.
6. If you forget or miss the week's race, do not post them late. You can compete next time.
7. Please submit using a timer that gives you the times in x.yz format.
8. Submit your times on this thread. (duh)
9. If you hit your goal, then you can go on to you next goal that you decide.
10. NO VIDEOS ARE NEEDED, if you really want to, you can post the video (please embed) and also write the times down below.
11. WCA rules must be used. So 15 sec inspection time, hands can not be touching the cube when starting the timer, cant take it apart on purpose...
12. Finally, LETS HAVE SOME FUN! Yeaaa!

I changed average of 12 to average of 5. I figured that megaminx is a longer event, so average of 5 would be good enough.
I am going to 'wipe the slate clean' as they say; if you competed before this thread stopped getting posts, I will not count them towards this round. I will post new scrambles in this post in a spoiler.
