I have the scramble... and solution...

The scramble - thanks to cube explorer - B2 U' B2 D2 R B2 D2 L2 D2 R2 U' R' B2 U' F' R2 F' U'

The solution -

Cross: Unsure - I checked the video carefully, and realised I had made mistakes on this part, but I am unsure of what it actually is.
F2L #1: Unsure
F2L #2: Unsure
F2L #3: U' R' U R U y L U L'
F2L #4: U2 y' R' U2 R U' R' U' R U' R' U R
OLL:
PLL: U' y x L2 D2 L' U' L D2 L' U L'

See? Now do you believe that it wasnt fake?

Lol, I think he seriously thought he could fool us by providing a solution. No solve has that easy of a cross, followed by that easy of a first insertion, followed by that easy of a second insertion, followed by your favorite F2L fingertrick, followed by an OLL skip. It just doesn't happen like that. Sorry
 
As some of you (fazrulz) may know, I'm usually pretty skeptical, but I believe him, and I think some of you guys should back off and stop assuming people can't be luckier and better than you are.
Also, who gives a flying duck about 2x2 single?
 
If you fill your signature with lucky single solve times, you have to expect that people are going to call you on it. I strongly suggest putting PB averages there instead (they'd give people a better representation of your skill) or at least nonlucky single times.


Also: after watching the video, I think your scramble and solution is wrong. Here's what I saw:

Scramble (yellow top, blue front): B U2 R2 D' U2 F2 U' L' B2 L' D L B2 L F2 R2 (16f*)
Double xcross: u U R'
F2L 3: U' R' U R U y L U L'
F2L 4: U2 y' R' U2 R U' R' U' R U' R' U R
OLL: (skipped)
PLL: U' y x L2 D2 L' U' L D2 L' U L'

33 move solve, pretty lucky if you ask me, but not necessarily fake.
 
LOLOLOLOL
Just because most of his records are claimed to be insanely lucky and his unlucky best single is sup-15.
Maybe I'm just unlucky. I can get at least one single better than his PB on hi-games.net every 5 solves, but I've yet to sub-11 any single, lucky or nonlucky.
I present several options:
1. He has no life and kept on scrambling to get really lucky scrambles
2. He is just lucky
3. He "generates" "scrambles."
4. Rehearsed solves.

No matter which option it is, it's insecure to claim lucky solves as PBs. Why not list your averages of 12?

this is what i saw in the vids , :rolleyes: . it start with a u move .



but he provided the cross solution as
The solution -

Cross: L2 U2 R2
:p


so who is lying :(

My only problem is that he rotates the cube a lot during F2L, more than most other 9.xx solves I've seen. It seems those would be rehearsed.

No, but the zero recognition time for someone not terribly fast to begin with makes me very skeptical.
