Me new here.
Name: Harpreet Singh
3x3x3: Average 50.25
40.49, (64.84), 51.99, (38.22), 58.29

I use Petrus. The bad solves are mostly because of bad 2x2x3s where I don't find the pieces I need immediately. Currently I always use the same colours. Should I become completely/partially colour-neutral now?

[KJiptner]

2x2x2
Avg: 9.49
Times: (08.61) 10.47 09.05 (10.50) 08.95

Tough solves. Not a very nice result.

4x4x4
Avg: 1:32.68
Times: (1:23.88) (1:45.50) 1:33.23 1:36.48 1:28.33

Very nice result! My 6-then-2-Pair-Rhythm is paiing off.

5x5x5
Avg: 3:39.00
Times: (4:12.34) 3:41.62 3:49.66 3:25.72 (3:21.36)

Those last two were very good for me. The 5x5 is kind of a hard puzzle for me.

3x3x3 BLD
1st: 1:42.88
(2nd: 3:31.94)

YEEEEESSSSS this is so amazing, I'm still not really back to earth. This 1st solve is my new PB and done under the pressure of this competition. I was still just shivering and shivering when memorizing the second cube. That's why it took me over 2 min, even though the 2nd one was not much harder than the first. But still I'm happy i got both solves since my DNF rate is VERY high.

my red center broke on the last turn... man i hate my 4x4 now. I hate 4x4s, period. i've broken 3 red centers already, wth man.

cannot do 3x3, b/c i barely got it back and it's kinda messed up.

Yeah... I've broken a bunch. I actually broke one the day I got a replacement. I think they addressed this in the new design, which is why I ordered new big cubes.

hey try the new cubes out and tell me if it's any better, i'll buy one if it is, if not i'm quitting 4x4

mine broke and i don't even play with it a lot. i play 5 times a week for this competition, that's all and it like 7 weeks, i broke 3 centers...

2x2x2: 7.98 (11.37) 8.77 8.21 (5.80) = 8.32. Good
3x3x3: (23.19) (29.49) 23.91 27.72 24.20 = 25.28. Good
3x3x3_oh: 47.98 (43.73) 51.67 (56.37) 50.42 = 50.02. Decent
4x4x4: 1:34.69 1:47.76(OP) 1:41.86(OP) (1:24.36) (2:04.05)(OP) = 1:41.44. Decent, I hate parities and I always mess up after a Personal Best
5x5x5: (2:37.14) 2:42.59 (3:02.71) 2:55.17 2:47.77 = 2:48.51. Decent
2x2x2_bf: DNF, DNF = DNF. Bad
3x3x3_bf: DNF, DNF = DNF. Bad, but faster
Square-1: 2:01.95(P) 2:04.63(P) (1:19.93) (3:19.60)(P) 2:00.72 = 2:02.43. Bad, I need a better Square-1 and learn more edge-cases
Magic: 1.70 (1.67) 1.71 3.01 (3.27) = 2.14. Good, then bad.
MegaMinx: 4:20.41 3:44.25 3:39.38 (3:36.81) (4:38.90) = 3:54.68. Decent. I need more practice as you can see by the downwards trend (last one was a screw-up)
PyraMinx: (12.65) 17.29 15.65 16.89 (20.53). Good, but I need to learn "last layer algs"
Fewest Moves: 42
Cross (4): D R' F R
Pair1 (4): U2 L U' L2
Pair2 (3): F' U2 F
Pair3 (5): U' B U' B' L
Pair4 edge (4): U2 R' U2 R
Pair4 corner (8): U' B U' B' U' B U2 B'
Edge OLL (5): F U R U'R'
Corner OLL (8): U2 F2 U' F2 U' F2 U2 F
PLL (1): U'

My beginning (first 7 moves) is the same as ExoCorsairs. Those 7 moves are so obvious that I hope everybody understands I haven't been cheating by watching his solve. Also, he beat me!
