The Warp Scale for Speedcubing

[clincr]

Nice scale but it disregards noobs.

 

[Pyjam]

I'm glad you like it !
You may use decimal values.
I once reached Warp 2.1
I know, I'm slow... :fp

 

[Pyjam]

Nice scale but it disregards noobs.

I don’t think so. The first objective of a noob is to reach Warp 1. And after that, Warp 2.

 

[nccube]

My single is Warp 9, Avg5 is Warp 6 and normally I am in Warp 5

 

[qqwref]

I like the idea, but I don't like connecting it to the warp scale, since the whole point is that warp 1 is already unachievable with conventional means (whereas you can absolutely get sub-minute with a conventional method ).

I had a scale based on bigcubes a while back... level N means you can solve an NxNxN in under N minutes. So everyone should be level 3, level 4 and 5 are people who are beginning to practice bigcubes, level 6 and 7 are trickier, level 8 is roughly world class on real cubes, and level 10 is roughly world class on computer cubes.

 

[Julian]

Warp 3.42 single.
Warp 3.03 average.

I guess I should point out that if the point of this scale is "how many cubes can you solve in a minute", it only really makes sense to consider averages. A single of 6 seconds doesn't mean you could theoretically solve 10 cubes in a minute, but an average of 6 seconds would.

I agree with this.

 

[RyanReese09]

Warp 6 single, Approaching warp5.

 

[cyoubx]

I've gotten a handful of Warp-6 singles, but I have a Warp-4 average.

Oh the good days when I was Warp-0.5

 

[Xishem]

Warp 6 single, Approaching warp5.

Captain, we are at Warp-6, approaching Warp-5.

 

[TMOY]

Frank Morris is able to reach Warp -1.

 

[Godmil]

uberCuber seems to have been first... but a change of signature is in order.

 

[Kynit]

All the runners out there should be vaguely familiar with this. Replace 'warp-n' with km/h (mph) and the times are now your minutes per km (mile)!

 

[Pyjam]

I added the extended Warp scale for all cubes in the first message.

 

[ben1996123]

I average...

• Warp 6 on 2x2, warp 6.5/7 on jflysim
• Warp 4 on 3x3
• Warp 2.5 on 4x4
• Warp 4 on 5x5
• Warp 3 on 6x6
• Warp 4.5 on 7x7

 

[StachuK1992]

Why no OH?

 

[Godmil]

There is OH, it's the same as 3x3. Would it not be reasonable that your speed would be slower OH than two.
The extended scale seems pretty good.

 

[Pyjam]

Why no OH?

If you're slower with one hand, use both.
