Thanks Mike! I'm just trying to keep up with you people who are getting really fast!
(and make an attempt to even half way begin to start catching up to Ville)

3x3x3: 26.07,(24.76),(35.07),29.63,26.87 =28.48
Messed up F2L in the third solve
3x3x3 BLD 3:26.87, DNF,DNF =3:26.87
Bad accuracy, bad memo.(Bad execution).First one should have been sub 3.

OLL skip, inserted edge cycle. No cancellation. 35 moves. Tough scramble.
I also found something 22 moves that left 5 corners, but I decided that would not be better.
Megaminx:
Average: 5:09.44
Individual Times:
(5:42.45), 5:22.23, 5:21.41, (4:41.76), 4:44.67
I don't usually do Megaminx. It took a long time. I'm getting better.
Square-1:
Average: 1:51.03
Individual Times:
(2:34.12), 1:46.33, 1:45.11, (1:37.11), 2:01.64
I almost never solve this puzzle.
4x4:
Average: 1:39.78
Individual Times:
1:52.50, (2:18.83), (1:28.38), 1:36.61, 1:30.22
Major screw up on the 2nd one. The last one was very fast, my fastest with Double parity.
234 Relay:
2:22.83
Pyraminx:
Average: 8.33
Individual Times:
7.25, 9.59, (11.02), 8.14, (6.31)
Good, but I want to average sub-6.

Not as good as I was before, but I'm making a comeback!

First cube was off by 2 corner orientations (bad memo) and edge 3-cycle (bad execution).
I think this is actually a PB.

Funny - you're consistently 5 moves better than me. You had an OLL skip and 35 moves; I had a PLL skip and 40 moves. Your other solve was 22 moves that left 5 corners; my other solve was 27 moves that left 5 corners.

I know it could be funny and shocking, but i I have done 2x2 blindfolded (third solve) in 14.56(+2). It was lucky, because I noticed that it is possible to do it with ortega method and I decided to risk. I've known what will be after FL and after OLL I had big problem. I had to decide, which algorithm from ortega. I 've chosen the easiest one for me and it was this 
2x2 BLD: DNF DNF 14.56 (+2)
My PB (except this solve) in 2x2 BLD is something like 1:36.xx
But dont worry, it was only for fun, so it can be besides competition.

Of course you shall join the contest, it was an excellent time (at least I think so
)The more the merrier.
And then you have 22 other events to choose among too.

Ok, I will try at these categories:
2x2x2: 06.25 ; 08.03 ; 05.45 ; 05.75 ; 05.28 = 5.82 medium
3x3x3: 17.54 ; 20.29 ; 17.70 ; 21.25 ; 25.07 = 19.75 quite nice

3x3x3 OH: 26.93 ; 27.56 ; 31.71 ; 30.57 ; 31.81 = 29.95 I passed sub30 avg12 3 days ago so it's nice time
2x2x2 BLD: DNF DNF 14.56(+2) (but don't count me at this event, it was too lucky, I looked at the cube for a while before starting a timer, so it should be 2/3 seconds more)

Also here the third was best, but both a couple of edges and a 3-cycle-corner.

ok, the third cube rather messed up. Time is getting better.

Comment: BLD solve was off by just 3 inner X centers. A nice time; it was sad that I didn't make it!
7x7x7: 8:10.78, 8:11.64, 7:45.54, 8:08.37, 1:02:25.90 (30:16) = 8:10.26
Comment: It's funny how a successful 7x7x7 BLD is almost always a thrilling thing, even if it goes horribly badly, like this one! I made a couple of mistakes while memorizing, one of which I only caught while reviewing my memory - it was lucky I caught it at all. And then during the solve I second-guessed myself what seemed like ten times or more. I backed up a couple of times when I realized I had recalled the wrong image. And I debated a couple of times on the centrals at the end whether or not to use BH edge algorithms, and eventually decided to use them on all the ones I knew. And then I got confused setting up the centrals for parity, and again I got confused as to which way to do the last turn on the T perm. And yet, miraculously, after all that, when I was done, it was solved! What a rush!

Comment: I forgot to do a whole location on the second one – it was off by 7 edges. The third one was off by 3 corners; I mismemorized them.
5x5x5 BLD: DNF (20:27.10, 11:14), DNF (17:45.66, 8:57), 15:59.23 (8:20) = 15:59.23
Comment: The first one had 3 X centers wrong; I mismemorized them and then messed up execution too, so it was really bad. The second one had 3 X centers wrong and 3 central edges wrong. Hooray for the third one! It should make it tough for Mats to beat me this week in our handicap race. Still a long way from Chris, though.
3x3x3 multiBLD: 4/6 = 2 points, 39:48.99 (24:16 memorization)
Comment: Horrible again. The second cube was off by 3 corners; I cycled the wrong direction. The fifth cube was scrambled; I messed up an A perm (the problem with learning to do A perms from all angles is your fingertricks sometimes get confused) and tried to fix it, and it was obviously a disaster. I think I simply must learn the rest of BH edges; I keep trying to think too much while solving and it slows me down. I keep hoping my memorization speed will improve, but it's just not happening. Very disappointing week for multi.
