I thought the Fangshi was unpoppable.....
Bleh

I have had more pops on my Fangshi in the last few days than on all my Dayans in the last year.

That made me LOL!

 

[Lchu613]

I haven't, since it hasn't arrived it yet
No cube=no pops lol

That's odd though, as I've actually exploded my Zhanchi quite a few times lol

Need to get some proper lube so it's faster so I can tighten it to a proper tension

 

[MarcelP]

I took out the Fangshi again for a video. I did an Ao15. It is a great cube. Too bad I hate it

I did not realise the timer did not start at the second solve so that one should be dismissed anyway.
Some 2+s in here but still a nice average:

[sneaklyfox]

Nice time, Marcel!

And look, I have a WCA profile now!!!

 

[Lchu613]

I don't have a WCA profile

 

[sneaklyfox]

The most exciting part of having the results of the comp up was getting my profile lol. I feel all official now haha.

 

[MarcelP]

Nice time, Marcel!

And look, I have a WCA profile now!!!

Awesome! I see I have a 2 X 2 single only 3 - 4 seconds away from your 2 X 2 single. That really makes me feel fast .. I hope next week at Open Eindhoven I hope to get the results you had on OH but then for me with two hands LOL.

 

[YddEd]

Nice time, Marcel!

And look, I have a WCA profile now!!!

You fast

 

[hcfong]

Nice time, Marcel!

And look, I have a WCA profile now!!!

Ooh, Hung. My familiy from my mother's side is called Hung. I wonder if we are related in some way...

 

[sneaklyfox]

Could be. I'm this Hung: 孔 (descendants of Confucius)

 

[hcfong]

Could be. I'm this Hung: 孔 (descendants of Confucius)

Ok. Nope. Doesn't look like we're related.

 

[KongShou]

Could be. I'm this Hung: 孔 (descendants of Confucius)

Isn't it KONG: 孔 I'm also descended from Confucius.
We're related lol!

 

[Lchu613]

I'm 褚
Not sure who I'm descended from though

Also what's with those DNF's on 2x2?

 

[Kattenvriendin]

O_O

I will never get the names there lol

At least I know my origin is somewhere in France, a knight in the 1100s *chuckle*

 

[MarcelP]

I am a true Viking descendant.

 

[Lchu613]

Haha, my sister just mentioned that since there's that one child per family rule in China, family trees are going to get very, very boring

 

[KongShou]

Haha, my sister just mentioned that since there's that one child per family rule in China, family trees are going to get very, very boring

Not really, quite a lot of people r not sticking to that rule

 

[MarcelP]

Is that rule still effective? Or are people allowed to have more than one child in China now?
