Weekly competition 2008-50

[Fobo911]

3x3x3:
(24.90), 18.12, 24.50, (14.26), 19.71 = 20.78
Eh. 14.26 had two insert F2L pairs and a PLL skip.

3x3x3 One-Handed:
1:02.64, 1:03.60, (56.37), (1:09.79), 1:00.40 = 1:02.21
Okay.

3x3x3 Match the Scramble:
2:36.62, 2:36.69, (2:55.22), 2:40.86, (2:26.62) = 2:37.96
I feel much more comfortable than I did last week with match-the-scramble. All five solves were under my previous best from last contest. Yay for Old Pochmann.

 

[Faz]

2x2: 4.63, (7.02), 3.69, 5.31, (3.40) = 4.54 - Great

3x3: (11.68), (15.94), 15.83, 13.02, 13.46 = 14.10 - Nice

OH: 27.22, (39.71), 36.55, (25.99), 33.43 = 32.40 - very bad


4x4: 1:05.94, (1:16.58), 1:09.36, 1:05.16, (1:01.55) = 1:06.82 - Good average, but no sub 1s

FMC - I suck at it but whatever.

3x3BLD

2. 02:57.20 Memo
02:27.76 Execution
Off by 3 corners.

1. Memo: 1:25
Rest: 25hours 20 minutes
Execution: 1:28.43 DNF
Forgot to execute the last corner flip!!!!

3. 01:34.51 memo
2:11.90 Execution
No delay in between, total = 3:46.41
New PB! Is my execution that slow?
My hands were cold...

First and third scrambles where ridiculously easy. If only I was not interupted for the first one and executed fast for the third one...

Multi BLD:
0/2
Memo was around 3min first, and 2min 2nd. Execution about the same. But there was like a 5min pause in between when I tried to remember my memo for the first cube (first to memo, 2nd to execute). I probably would have not took the pause if my mom didn't come in the room to yell at me.

3x3 speed:
17.90 PLL skip
22.00
16.83
19.12
22.91
Average= 19.67

 

[MTGjumper]

2x2: 04.92, (06.27), (03.89), 05.94, 05.25 = 5.37
Comment: slightly better than average. Lock ups on the 6.xx!

3x3: 15.28, (13.83), (15.86), 14.84, 14.89 = 15.00
Comment: Bang on 15 seconds, which is rather good.

4x4: 1:21.13, 1:32.24, 1:23.25 ...

And then my 4x4 popped, and now I've got to put it back together =/

[Sa967St]

3x3x3: (10.97), 15.40, (15.78), 14.09, 14.02 --> 14.50
3x3x3 OH: 34.19, (36.49), (31.40), 32.28, 34.28 --> 33.58
3x3x3 BLD: DNF (2:51.88), 2:33.43

a lot of the scrambles were pretty easy...

 

[Jude]

2x2x2: 6.53, 7.09, 6.31, 7.53, 7.31 = 6.98 --> Ugh, terrible. Even the best solve I would consider awful for me..

2x2x2 BLD: DNF, DNF, 1:18.84 = 1:18.84 --> No Comment...

3x3x3:16.62, 16.70, DNF, 23.00, 18.34 = 19.35 --> 1st had an easy x cross, 2nd and last were just fast. The other 2 were pops, which spoiled the otherwise good average

3x3x3 BLD: 4:14.56, DNF (2:40.48), DNF (2:53.83) = 4:14.56 --> Uhhhhhhhhhh -.- 1st cube: during inspection I knew there was an edge permuted and flipped somewhere on the cube but it took me well over a minute to find it, no idea how. 2nd cube: had 2 flipped edges but was OK speedwise. 3rd cube: when I opened my eyes I was holding the cube wrong (or I did some slice turns wrong, which is more likely as all 4 corners on the L face were correct :S)

3x3x3 Multi BLD: 0/2 (9:21.59 (5:23)) = 0 points --> Meh, although I have regressed since last week by 1 cube, I wanted to get a sub 10 2 cube multi BLD. Sub 10 seemed very easy, I went slowly and calmy and used Old Pochmann because I'm more comfortable with that than my new method, but one had 2 flipped edges and 1 had 2 twisted corners. Shame

3x3x3 OH: 29.61,DNF (Pop), 29.09, 26.89, 32.88 = 30.53 --> Bad, maybe I should've warmed up properly first (I just got a really easy 25 second average of 5 as my first solves of the day so I thought I didn't need to bother )

4x4x4: 1:38.13, 1:44.61 (OP), 1:41.00 (OP), 1:48.75 (P) DNF = 1:45.12 --> Rubbish again... At least I was luckier than last week with parities. Only half the solves had double parity, not all of them -.-

2x2x2 - 4x4x4 Relay: 2:21.83 --> Bad bad bad!

Square-1: Might do it later.

FMC: R' F2 U2 F2 L2 F R' D B D' B D' R D R B' R B U' R U R2 U' R2 U' B R2 B2 R' B2 R' B2 R2 B (34) --> My worst solution ever..

Any one can do this sub-30?

Not me. Tough scramble and I didn't take it seriously. Just too busy. Next week I plan to submit whatever above 30 or below.
