I blame Tim Major.

lol, I wasn't going to post the judge :-P

Tim.

Also, may or may not be right but I think my first 4x4 solve was 2:25.55 not 2:22.55. I am not entirely sure though, can't quite remember.

That's ok. I just checked the score card and it has "2:22.55".

Hmm, Ok then

I wasn't watching too closely, but it looked like you were still doing LBL, rather than CE pairing? If so, I'd suggest learning that rather than worrying about ZZ.

Yeah, it's like keyhole LBL thing. I hate the method :p

You're right, I do need to work on pairing, especially since I will need it for ZZ anyway. I guess that would be more important for working on rather than something like EoLine for now.
 
and does taking the washers out kinda break the cube? cause i did it to my zhanchi and its really smooth and fast.

I just keep one washer for each screw, if there is 2, I usually take them out.

I have no idea if your cube will explode or not without the washers, they're there for a reason, lol

Funny thing is I lost a guhong's washer and I got two washers from the zhanchi lol.

You don't really need 2 washers for the Zhanchi..

Yeah.Funny though.


Wow I just found out that the no washer thing grinds down the core...
Then I found out that having the washer there makes the cube slow down...

I think it's to give the springs something to rub against if you think about it logically and lubing helps a lot to reduce friction.

Yeah I'm just putting the washers back in. I've put 4 in and lubed the screw before putting it in and the Zhanchi is AMAZING.

All Zhanchis are amazing.

........ More like 10.



Still 5 years extra practise.

Yes it was Hansen's annoying voice and horrid filming.

Also does the White/Black plastic actually effect the turning?

I think stickerless dayans feel somewhat smoother than the ones with black plastic due to different material substance stuff.

17.73 first round

21.xx second round. 1st solve was a classic zhanchi explosion and DNF, then choked the rest
