Melbourne Cube Day 2012

[CJF2L 1]

hey tim,
can you please remove me from multi BLD
i didn't practice enough

 

[TimMc]

FYI: There's a protest at the State Library at 1pm.

If you're getting lunch from Melbourne Central then you may wish to cross Swanston Street and then cross La Trobe Street from the Hungry Jacks corner (to avoid the protest side).

Tim.

What's the protest about?

I may or may not be late for Multi - my train's been stuck in one place for 20 mins and they have no idea how much longer it's gonna be :fp If I'm late I'll just do less cubes, but yeah just so you know.

Yep, http://live.cubing.net/MelbourneCubeDay2012/#0

 

[bryson azzopard]

yeah. hopefully tim puts up some of the results in the lunch time break which starts it 10 minutes. i wonder if cameron broke 2x2 WR average

 

[Rubiks560]

I hope Cameron knows how nervous he is making me

Good luck to Him though.

 

[JHB]

Good luck everyone! Hope your PB's are free-flowing!

 

[rock1313]

SOOOOOOO close, next time Cameron

 

[mitch1234]

Jay slow down on 4x4, you beat me, and now I don't have a comp in a while to beat that. Also nice 2x2 average.

 

[bryson azzopard]

unlucky cameron if you didn't get that DNF you would of had it. to bad faz only 0.04 off WR average
edit: and jay's finally sub 3 average

 

[amostay2004]

Oh noes Florian is not there, no 5x5 WR =(

Also Zane's multi =(

 

[Tim Major]

555 wr average by faz, by 0.01

RIP gloating Florian.

 

[PeteyKaralis]

I really hope everyone had fun today, it really sucks I couldn't be there.
I had every intention of going, but early this morning there was personal matters that involved me not being able to get down into Melbourne.
Anyway, congratulations to everyone who did well!

 

[Rubiks560]

No WR for Cameron

That record needs to die.

 

[ottozing]

Excellent comp for me aside from totally bombing in 3x3

Yeah I missed out on WR again (8th competition that I have wanted it at), but at least I finally beat my 2.27 from over a year ago with a LanLan. 2.23 average, so still 4th in the world (Michal has 2.22 ). I finally beat Feliks though, which placed me 1st. Also, 2nd in 3x3 with 12.74 (first 3x3 podium ever ) and 3rd in OH with 21.47 (amazing average for me, PB is only 21.14). This was a great comp for me. I think I'd call it my 3rd best ever, behind Aus Nationals 2011 (where I got 2.27), and, of course, Worlds.

Now some DYKs:
If my last 2x2 solve in the finals was sub-1.97 I would've got 2.08 WR?
Richie is freakishly flexible?
He offered me and handshake right before the first OH round, then squeezed my OH really hard so it hurt?
I was tired because I went to bed too early last night?
Hansen got 2 whoppers?
You know a party will be wild when your description of it starts with 'my mum'?

Great comp! 17.52 3x3 single! So awesome after a shaky 20.09+ Oh and 40.74 OH average with ZZ
