Toronto Open, Spring 2010

Eric's average in the finals was 11.69, I believe. And yeah, it was a nice comp in terms of results, but we don't have much to say for the Did You Know lists.

And congrats to Thompson Clarke for getting a 5.96 pyra average. Sub-old NAR, and SO close to me. :)

Did you know
-Instead of sub-30 fail I got sub-20 fail :(
-I spent 5 minutes teaching Bill Bob's lolmethod, and he got DNF, 3:xy, 1:xy, 58.xy 5x.yz and everyone was clapping.
-Nobody clapped on my 14 second square-1 solve but they clapped for a 21 second solve of someone else.
-Bill ended up making a variation of Bob's method.

That was me, and thats because there was like 6 people watching me, and they new the NR was 20.xy. I would have beaten it but I had to fix the middle layer wich added 2 seconds. Btw the time was 21.52, and I fialed my average, it was 40.17.
 
Did you know
-that Sarah cheats in team events :p
-that I still don't get what sledgehammer and hedgeslammer is...

EDIT: nice sig Daniel :p

Did you know that Tim and I got a 10:44.xx Minx Team BLD solve? xDD

Sarah and I got a 35.xx+2 3x3 team bld. That was absurdly easy.

Oh yeah, and I got a 13.7x 3x3 average in the final. Wooh.

we also got a 41.xx that was not absurdly easy

You beat me in both 3x3 AND square 1 >: (

Lol, for the first solve in square 1, I did two adjacent parities instead of U- perm and ended up getting like, 45 :fp

I also failed the easy cubeshape one...

lolno

Did you know that...

- Bill was trying to take close-up pictures of people's eyes?
- he entered pyraminx without knowing a real method, and he used his own method which was similar to the one Bob taught him at the Canadian Open?
- I was stupid and messed around with the tension on my 3x3 and made it too loose?
- I got 2 pops in the first 3x3 round? (my A-ii has never popped before) clicky
- news reporters from CBC and CTV were there to get interviews with Harris Chan?
- one of the reporters was watching me in the first 3x3 round (which I completely failed because I was being careful not to get anymore pops) and we had an epic interview which wasn't aired?
"you just solved the cube in 14 seconds..."
"yeah, it was horrible"
O_o "what's a good solve like?"
"about 12 seconds I guess"
"have you heard of Harris Chan?
"uhh, of course."
"what do you think of him?"
"he's cool"
"is he good?"
"yeah he's fast... only the fastest in Canada, right?"
*awkward pause* "thanks"
- Bill can pronounce my middle name correctly? (His response: "of course, I'm Chinese." My response: *thinks "but I'm Japanese..."*)
- LOL I FAIL AT 3x3
- my first megaminx solve was a DNF (was on CPLL at 1:35ish, then I popped in the middle of a corner rotating commutator and messed it up and had to go back and fix it)?
- It was a 3:30ish solve but I DNF'd it because it was suck?
- now I have two DNF official means (7x7x7, and now megaminx) because of DNF singles due to pops?
- I didn't even know that I made the second round of OH, then somehow I made OH finals?
- my times in the OH finals were super consistent? (24.xx, DNF, 34.xx, 39.xx, 22.xx) hell yeah.
- some of the kids there were loljudges and lolscramblers?
- Zachary still says "AND... EXAMINE!" while lifting up the cube cover?
- *Jeremy does a handstand*
- Emily gets easily confused at Team BLD?
- blimp = soccer mirror
- Excalibur = cow farm mirror
- U... uh 2....3
- some people finally decided to start signing the back of the Canadian Cubing shirt? (the front is all filled out)
- beast OLL
- thermometer.
