Stanford Fall 2012

[brandbest1]

Comp is coming up might set a few goals:
-Another sub-10 3x3 single
-Sub-50 4x4 avg
-Win square-1 (I hope)
-Not mess up for 2x2
-If 5x5 happens sub-1:30 avg
-Sub-6 pyra avg
-OH something sub-23

Yeah that's it.

What do you average on square-1 now?

What do you average on square-1 now?

About 31.

About 31.

Wow, you improve quick. I couldn't average 40 until I had solved square-1 for a year now. Guess that's because I didn't practice it that much. SJC Winter 2012 was my motivator for square-1.

I'm pretty sure I'm going, but I'm not sure which part of the day, so I'm just going to sign up for 3x3 for now. If I end up doing more, I can add events, right?
3x3 goals: sub 22 average, sub 20 single.

Other goal for this comp: meet people. Last time I went to Stanford Winter I didn't overcome my shyness and so didn't talk to anyone. I wish I did so this time I hope I will.

And I'm going to ask again:
Anyone want to sell me any of this stuff? :
Shengshou 4x4 v3 or v4
Shengshou 5x5
Wittwo
QJ, Mefferts, or Shengshou pyraminx
Shengshou mirror blocks
Mini zhanchis (42 or 55 mm)
Any cheap and relatively simple cuboids
QJ version 2, mf8 megaminx
speedstacks timer any version; with or without data port
Note: any color is ok, but white is preferred.
high-viscosity lubricant (lubix, traxxas, lubicle, izo lube, etc.) - half filled stuff is alright I guess if you have a reasonable price.

plrz?

Thank you people.

Competition tomorrow!

I just added 4x4 and OH to my registration. Sorry about not deciding sooner. Is this ok?
If it is ok, can anyone let me borrow a decent 4x4? My lanlan sucks a LOT...
Thanks.
So excited for tomorrow!

Anyone find a white Florian modded Shengshou 5x5? My guess is that Edward took it because he was playing with it a lot.
Edit: Nevermind Edward says he has it.

3x3 goals: sub 22 average, sub 20 single.

Other goal for this comp: meet people.

3x3 goals totally met
15.xy single, 16.xy average 1st round and 19.xy average 2nd round.
4x4 was kinda fail; I didn't meet the cutoff.
OH was amazingly good for me.
32 or something single and sub-40 average.
Did an average today and couldn't even sub-50.

As for my other goal, it was mostly successful since I talked to some people, but not too many because someone I knew appeared and I ended up talking to her a lot more.

Overall, I had a good time, and I hope everyone else did too.
