The "Real Man's" average of 10.

[masterofthebass]

Ok, here it is.

*Alert* only attempt this if you are a real man (or woman).

Supplies:

1 cube
10 scrambles
timing device

Start with your cube solved, and time scrambling+solving all 10 scrambles.

My 3x3 real man's avg was 5:18 the first time and 5:16 the second.


I want to see someone do the 5x5

[Lofty]

5:33.91 with Hadley's scrambles.
I think a real mans average are marathons 42, hour, a day whatever those are killer. 42 OH was crazy I can't imagine how bad a hour or day is...

 

[Jason Baum]

3:57.68

 

[sam]

5:55.22 . Fun number. Surprisingly it wasn't that tiring...

 

[Harris Chan]

4:04.73...Grr, I didn't warm up (I almost lost track of which solves lol). I'll catch up to you Jason!! lol

 

[philkt731]

4:47.11 first time

 

[Jason Baum]

Woah, I beat Harris at something cubing related?! Now I feel like I accomplished something today

You'll probably beat me on your next try though, haha.

 

[FrankMorris]

25:33.52

5x5

 

[Hadley4000]

25:33.52

5x5

Very nice. I might try that one day while bored.

 

[Jason Baum]

7:50.91

One handed.

*hand falls off*

 

[joey]

Hey! I came up with the name "Real Man's" average of 10! Credit where credit is due

I tried this with Dan on IRC, but I think i must have missed one or messed up somehwere. I got a 4:44.xx, I'm not exactly sure if thats right though! It was 00:30am! I'll have to try when I'm more awake!

 

[ThePizzaGuy92]

7:50.91

One handed.

*hand falls off*

One handed scrambling too?

 

[Jason Baum]

One handed scrambling too?

Yeah, but I'm pretty comfortable at doing one handed scrambles. I sometimes do this when I'm doing OH averages to stay sharp.

 

[KConny]

You'll probably beat me on your next try though, haha.

You only get one attempt on a real man's average.
