Came from a comp today.
Everything went poorly (What a surprise lol)
The only good thing was that I got a Sub-1 Megaminx single, and there are uncommon for me so I am glad to get it officially.
I also met @Clock_Enthusiast

It was great to meet you, and you did absolutely insane in mega!

Everything went poorly for me as well, haha.

2.80 Official Skewb Average!

Ranked 89th in the World as of today.

The first scramble was 4 moves to hedge, and I got 1.86 on that.
Second Scramble was two moves to Pure Pi + H Perm, which is 3 sledges, and I one-looked it, getting a 2.06.
It was at that point that I knew Sub-3 was possible. I got 4 on the 3rd which made me nervous, but I got 3.20 on the 4th, which meant I only needed a high 3 for Sub-3 average. And then I got a 3.13, which got the Sub-3 Average!
Could have definitely been mid 2 average, since the last one had a 2 sledge case, so I should have gotten 2.6 ish instead of 3.13, but it is Sub-3 avg so I don't care.

Tommy Cherry also has a 2.80 average.

Tommy Cherry also has a 2.80 average.

Yeah, but luckily since we both have the same average, according to nemeziser.com it means he doesn't nemesize me anymore!

Decided to have a progression thread because pretty much everyone else has one.

oh boy i agree, skewb is indeed the best event

I got 10 solves straight without parity.

I don't know yet, 3 events that i enjoy and 3 rounds of skewb is quite nice, but I'm usually covered on sundays so it might be hard.

4BLD PB DNF by 2 centers. Time was 13:51 (8 min memo)
Other than the DNF I notice a ton of things I can improve on such as speeding up memo (bc in my past attempts I have never had an issue with forgetting memo, so I think I can Sub-5 memo). My think-ahead could have been also better.
I don't get tired when doing multiple 4BLD attempts but one 5BLD attempt is tiring for me. I don't know why though

4th is the worst. At least you got 1st in r1 and 2, which shows you are capable of being the best. I'm sure you'll do better next time.

 

[Bingus cuber]

Yeah but you had the fastest single in the finals.
