Swedish open 2010!

Let's start the "did you know?"s...

DYK:

-what is a Kamelåså?
-not practising side events that much can be a good thing?
-Johannes is such a stepmaniac? (It was funny to see him miss an easy step :p)
-according to Daniel Bajer, my name is pronounced: "Rawbert Yeaoo"?
-Daniel Sheppard probably broke the UWR for swapping two stacked cups around with one hand in a time of around 0.50 seconds I think it was?
-You would have not wanted to be in the 444 finals? I think many people got 4 or 5 solves with OLL parity. Simon managed to get 5/5 OLL parities and 4/5 PLL parities! :p
-"Crazy Domino " is really crazy?
-Daniel Sheppard's BLD results are a joke? 3 DNFs for 333 first round, one success in 444 BLD and 555 BLD and also 7/11 for multi BLD. :p
-Frank's fingers are rather strong?
-He apparently managed to do an E perm in 0.66 seconds?
-Joar Mellström is going to be the next Fell-leeks?
-Frank: fffffk
-Daniel B: fffffok
-Frank: fffffk, Daniel B: fffffok
-Frank: fffk, Daniel B: fffok, Frank: fffk, Daniel B: fffok
-fffkfffokfffkfffokfffkfffokfffkfffokfffkfffok!

more to follow later...

- it was 50 degrees + in the venue..
- because we couldnt open the windows
- because there were mosquiteoes everywhere
- Robert got my clock for a type F
- Me and Daniel likes invisible pingpong :P (Frank: fffffk, Daniel B: fffffok)
- I got a 51 avg in OH
- Morten is very bad at speaking Danish :P
- Gunnar did a really great job on organising this :p
 
- I rock at speaking danish
- I felt sorry for Daniel and Robert, cause they didn't understand anything of what we were saying
- I failed?
- I met Robert Yau and Daniel Sheppard?
- The mosquitos are f-ing annoying?
- Kamelåså?
- JOAR MELLSTRÖM!!!
 
- random things is funnier when its in the middle of the night?
- I went to my first competition and wasn't too embarrased about my solves?
- cubers are awesome people?
- norwegians drink a lot of coke?
- the venue was awesome?
- judging Frank on 5x5x5 bld isn't all that boring?
- my worst 2x2 solve was worse than my 3x3 solves?
- its bad to learn OLL-parity on competition day?
- my cube didn't pop when Daniel borrowed it for multi-bld?
- morten told me what a kamelåså is?
- mr Shipyard taught me how to solve clock?
- short people seem to be faster at cubing?
- some stackmats are impossible for me to start/stop? :(
 
So this was comp number 6 for me, and my furthest from home. I had an awesome time, so massive thanks to Gunnar and the organistational team, and also everyone else for making it such a great and fun competition.

Did you know...
- Morten loves feet so much
- Henrik is my hero for teaching me magic and master magic
- Daniel Bajer OH solves :eek:
- If Morten is Shortey, then what is Joar?
- I wish I knew CLL for that 2x2 scramble
- Kamelåså?!?!
- 4x4 finals was cursed. Simon 9 parities, Me 8, Rob 7 or 8
- Pyraminx was won with sup-8...hmmm
- Rob likes side events and will become good at everything except bld very soon
- Bld events were odd for me. Safety successes at big cubes, DNFs at single 3bld. Stupid 7/11 at multi. Only one mistake on all 10 cubes that DNFed :mad:
- Feet is hilarious
- Almost everyone beat Frank at OH :confused:
- Speedstacking is more better than taking my 3rd 5bld attempt
- I failed at clock again
- Crazy domino is soooooooo crazy
- Tommy has loads of cool puzzles
- Mosquitos
- My counting OH solves were 32.63, 32.46, 32.49, 31.86, 32.31, 32.69
- 7.08 in 2x2 final :p
- I'm coming back sometime
 
Nice one Kenneth :) I think sub-1 is definitely possible, but would be difficult. I'm not really sure what the fastest people average on 3x3x4 but it must be sub-1 easily. I've ordered a 2x3x3 and 3x3x4 so in a few weeks I'll be able to try and improve

I have done sub 40 average, but there was a video of some German guy doing a little over 30 in a 3(5) so sub 30 is most possible. I estimate a good NL solve for me in the relay would be something like 5-15-25-35 = 1:20

Ah, I replyed before I read MGTjumpers reply, another sub 40 solver then =)

Algs for Domino and Tower : https://sites.google.com/site/rectangularcuboids/

Edit: The 2x2 scramble, got 2:04 ... if I only was in that group. But of course, it was lucky, I have no lucky solves in 2x2 so far and I like that =)
