Hi,

I just got a Moyu Magnetic Pyraminx so I'm starting a Pyraminx race to Sub-X. Rules are the same as usual. Get sub-x three times in a row to graduate. Lowercase letters are the tips of the pyraminx. Please list the kind of cube you use and the method.
Thanks for competing!

I'm going to have a shot at this too. I've not participated in any forum competitions before, so tell me if I'm doing anything wrong.

ROUND 1

Goal: Sub-10 (this might be a bit of a stretch, but 'sub-11' wasn't a nice round number.)

Times:
11.46, 13.89, 8.60, (19.90), 16.07, 9.75, 11.30, 14.67, (6.58), 9.06, 10.62, 10.42

Round 2
Race to sub-4
Method: Intuitive L4E
Pyraminx: MoYu Magnetic

Times:
6.07, 4.31, 5.54, 3.70, 3.34, 4.43, 5.87, 5.30, 5.77, 3.59, 3.74, 4.08 = 4.64 average

Yeah sub 4 is a bit of a stretch for me, and I'm pretty inconsistent, but I'd get to sub 4.5 pretty quick if I made it that.
We got the same average :p

Wow, that's crazy!
Btw I had a look at your WCA profile,(Profile pic was hilarious!!!) and it seems like you practice Pyraminx A LOT,also a pretty decent official average. At least compared to your other events. (Also In Aus, same as me)

Are you going to nationals this year? Because the Pyraminx competition is really not competitive. Last year I got 2nd with a 5.59 average. If you're coming, you have a pretty good chance! I'll be better by than though ;P
Let's race to sub 4

Yeah definitely! I got my first pyraminx June 2016 and practiced it way too much :confused:. Currently practicing one looking and trying to get sub 4 so yeah race to sub 4 :p. I am going to Adelaide Summer on Jan 21st if your coming. Yeah I should probably practice other events more lol, learning CLL on 2x2. I will go to nationals for sure, do you know what state it is in this year? I live in Sydney.

Round 3
Race to Sub 4
X Man Magnetic Bell Pyraminx
Intuitive L4E

3.95, 5.24, 4.95, 4.42, 4.05, 4.57, 4.04, 3.96, 4.57, (2.95), (5.66), 3.82 = 4.35

It seems my best and worst solves always happen next to each other. When I first switched to the X Man Bell I got a 4.02 Average of 100 but I guess I just wasn't warmed up for this one lol.
