Well now we have the like button, so that can help on congratulating! I felt really lost that day at work without Tapatalk working. I like the notices, I can usually find breaks in the day to read up.
Awesome ao5, just awesome!!
Oh yes indeed and looking forward to catching up tomorrow. The lack of individual congratulations is more down to 14 hours decorating a day over last few days as we decorate the living room. Normal cubing service to return to normal tomorrow

@mark49152 great job! The story of how you got into BLD makes me more interested... Not ready quite yet though.

More Gigaminx got a 19:03 solve today, lets see if I can eventually get under 15mins.

Nice present. Good angle. It looks quite intimidating, even more than a Gigaminx.

Cubing roadtrip confirmed! On the morning on Saturday April 16th myself and two other adults will be travelling to Tacoma Washington to compete at Puget Sound Spring 2016. There will be no children with us. There will also be no non-cubers with us. I'm ecstatic!

Hi all,
Well feel like I have been on a different planet for the last 4 days decorating our living room which just a brief bit of cubing for the 3x3 PB Ao5 out of nowhere.
Trying to catch up on the weekly comp before the end of the day and did some practice clock and got some lucky cases to give me a PB ao5 on film:-
Average of 5: 12.84
1. 12.48 UR4+ DR2+ DL1- UL2- U1- R4- D1+ L1- ALL5- y2 U3- R3- D1- L6+ ALL4+ UR
2. (15.54) UR5+ DR6+ DL6+ UL4- U1+ R5- D5+ L2+ ALL1- y2 U0+ R0+ D1+ L4+ ALL0+ UR DL UL
3. (12.17) UR4+ DR2- DL3+ UL6+ U5+ R2+ D2+ L6+ ALL4- y2 U5+ R2+ D0+ L3+ ALL2- DR DL
4. 13.07 UR4- DR2+ DL2+ UL3+ U4+ R2+ D3- L4+ ALL3+ y2 U1+ R0+ D5+ L1- ALL4- UR DR DL UL
5. 12.97 UR1+ DR1- DL5- UL5+ U4+ R1- D2- L3+ ALL4+ y2 U3- R3+ D1- L6+ ALL1- UR
@mafergut - Nice unboxing. I only have a 3x3 gear cube but it has been in the loft ever since we moved here 2 1/2 years ago. The ball looks great.
@Lid - Nice giga times. Think I will order myself one this week

@Selkie: Wow, Chris, you're fast at everything! I think I had never seen a clock solve before, now that I think of it. Interesting but, still, not a twisty puzzle
By the way, I think color neutral practise is starting to pay off. I might go ahead and start doing my regular averages with any cross color now, even if they are still a bit slower. Today I destroyed my PB single with "other" cross color (not white / yellow). And it's full step too

BLD:
I've solved it (only the corners) in 2 minutes and a half, I had to look up 2 algs that I've not learned yet (I'm not using OP) and wrote the memo in a paper and solved the cube under the table, not a great achievement but it felt good

What algs do you mean? And congrats - it felt good, yeah!

I looked up the A-Perms to permute the corners, I know like 6 of the 7 "possible" cases of preorientation.
I know that OP is easier and probably not slower, but this method looked fun to me.

Oh, this. Yes, it seems intresting but I've never had so much patience to get through it. Respect!

Talking about 3bld... I could do twice mo3 around 1:10 but 3rd solve was dnf in both cases. Instead I did mo3 1:23.72 (1:13.41, 1:18.30, 1:39.44) and ao5 1:25.45 [1:13.41, 1:18.30, 1:39.44, 1:37.34, 1:20.68]. I had also ~50 sec. solve but dnfed.
