precompsubwr progression thread | I wonder what came in the mail...

Should I get back into blindfolded solving?


  • Total voters
    22
  • Poll closed .
Literally every parent decided to get together and say no this month

Recap since comp is over
Kymberlyn won 3x3 with 9.0 avg (you gotta be kidding me)
Evan won 3bld with 35 single in the first round
Parker won skewb with 2.58 (wait, whatt??)

I should be going to the nyack ones tho
I only go to comp like every 3-4 months lol
 
I only go to comp like every 3-4 months lol
Same, even though I should go more frequently, like last summer I went to 2 comps (almost 3), and this summer I went to 0, and the next POSSIBLE comps is at the end of October, If not, then I'm going to literally not go to a comp for a WHOLE YEAR, because I have 8th grade exams in june, and my mother is not going to let me go to a comp that is like in spring, so I'm f*ucked up

I don't remember the full recon, but it started with
y2 R' D B' R F' U' r U2 r'
And ended with the green-orange pair and a U' auf

I think the last pair was a corner twisted in its slot, just 2-gen

After a year and 11 days, I finally beat the 4.87, and it was one of my smartest solutions tooEDDDB901-A917-47A9-A9CD-1BB9AF302DCD.jpeg

y' U' R U' R' U R U' R' U R' F R F' // last pair
F R' F' R U R U' R' U2 R U R' U' R' F R F' U2 // accidental zbll

This gave me 10.15 TPS, would have been faster if I didn't do edge control, but you can't ask for too much at once

Also some other things:
Casual 4:02.32 7x7 single, I'm improving (didn't feel that fast)

First sub-4 clock single using tommy 7s

Wow! Nice solution! I got a similar solution as well, so this is the scramble you needed to break that 4.87! So proud of you bro

still not sub me smh
 
So I'm gonna do something similar to what @urfavmuuse is doing, improving my worst events in kinch ranks, and those are:

5x5 (49.62)
Mega (47.47)
7x7 (40.51)
6x6 (40.18)
3BLD (16.48)
4BLD (10.22)
3MBLD (6.39)
5BLD (0.00)

So just big cubes, mega, and the bld events, I'm gonna try to get the kinches above 50, so here are my goals

5x5: 1:09.52
6x6: 2:11.32
7x7: 3:19.36
Mega: 53.68
3BLD: 24.00 single or 28.10 avg
4BLD: 1:43.92 single or 2:12.92 avg (oh god)
5BLD: 4:08.82 single or 4:55.26 avg
MBLD: 29 pts (jeez)

Yeahh this might be a lot harder than I thought, focusing on the bld events last because I don't have any comps or anything coming up
Also the fact that they are all either wr18-ish or wr40 soo
