hopefully that displays ok.
 
Congratulations on beating me at MTS Chris. You had a little luck, but a good solve anyway. I had a 1:06 (also good) DNF because I had a missed slice-turn :(
Why can't we just replace "with feet" with "MTS"?

Yeah, I want to see those too. You and I did pretty well, Breandan.

Exactly !! MTS is way better than with feet. Feet is a bit silly if you ask me. I actually didn't too too bad at MTS, more than half way up which is ok but could have been faster.
 
Sexy move challenge isn't on the spreadsheet. (and i'd forgotten about it :p)

Using my powers of memory and this photograph:

I think the top 3 results were

27 for Breandan
23? for Pete
and 21 for Me Charlie and Greg

So do I interpret this (and some of the photos) correctly that you had a competition to solve a cube in a plastic bag? My daughter Marie will be thrilled to hear about it. She was doing this at the Indiana Open last year (if I recall correctly, that was the competition where she came up with the idea). I think I remember that she was somewhere around 8 or 9 minutes, but she was still fairly competitive, huh?

it was more like you had a completely popped cube in a plastic bag and you had to reassemble it to a solved state :)
 
We had a disassembled cube in a plastic bag and we had to turn it into an assembled cube in solved state without opening the bag.
I chose to assemble it randomly and then solve it, some other competitors preferred to assemble it directly in solved state. I don't know which option is better, it may vary among people...

Yes!! Two top ten finishes lol.

Cool idea! I'll tell Marie about it; I bet she tries it at some lull in the competition tomorrow. (I suspect this will be much harder for her, though; I'd be very surprised if she could stackmat it.)
 
I would just like to point out that however few we UK cubers are, we do like to natter.

This is the 360th post in this thread. (Currently beating the second largest competiton thread by over 100 posts!)
