Random Cubing Discussion

How do those stats change if you add cheaters' times back in?

 

[Stefan]

I'm undecided whether I'm just unwilling or also unable to do that

Has it always been like that, or did he change the picture after the US Nationals interview? (Also, was that interview just a random question, or some reference?)

Nah, I think someone has just been messing around with it, last week it was a pic of Chris Olson lol
I don't know if that was a reference to something or not...

I've been wanting to learn more about how to eventually organize/start a competition. Also just need to attent more comps. I only have 1 official 3x3 average and it's embarrassingly slow.

all 3x3x3 scrambles can be solved in at most 6.5 galloner turns

What?

 

[qqwref]

4 quarts = 1 gallon

 

[goodatthis]

4 quarts = 1 gallon

Nice, that was very clever

 

[Cale S]

Also, every 3x3 scramble can be solved in at most $6.50

Another explanation, please...

I now realize I probably should have said 6.5 dollar turns instead.

Saving this for when (if) a certain metric's Gods number is found:

Spoiler

All 3x3 scrambles can be solved in at most 5 pizza slices

Spoiler

For Stefan

Spoiler

SQTM, if the number is 20, 20 quarter pizza slices = 5 slices

How about "Every 3x3 scramble can be solved in at most __ turns in this metric"

Spoiler

The number would have to be 20 or less, don't know exactly what it is. Does anyone know the current upper and lower bounds for atm? What about stm? (I know there are positions that take at least 18)

For STM, I think I remember qqwref saying that the number was definitely less than 20. So, I guess lower bound is 18 and upper bound is 19?

What's the fastest time anyone has taken from starting cubing to getting a sub-10 ao5?

I have a friend who has been cubing for less than or around a year and he got several sub-10 ao5s already.

I thought faz was averaging sub-10 after a year...

I doubt it's me, but I got my first around 11 months. If I were to guess I would say it's Kennan.
