Ugh... why did those first solves suck at newark :/ O well, I'll just beat this in a couple of weeks. Hopefully I won't have a puzzle defect on 4/5 solves.

I think it's really great to see such talent in cubing in Taiwan. It's only been recent that cubing competitions are popping up over there so it'll be nice to see how the cubers develop with more opportunities to compete.

Amazing, yet predictable.

I knew Hsuan Chang would have gotten 5x5 WR before Nakajima. Perhaps we should have bet?

Edit: OH is also very intense!
