All current (new) scramblers from the WCA are used.
  • For all 3x3x3 events (including FMC) Cube Explorer was used to generate a random position and provide an inverse scramble (generator) for that position.
  • For all cubes > 3x3x3 (mediumcubes) a "w" means "Wide" so you turn not just the slice, but also the outer layer.
  • For all cubes > 5x5x5 (bigcubes) normally a subscript number indicates the amount of layers to turn like a wide turn. U32 would mean to turn the the U layer and the 2 layers beneath it (3 in total) a half turn. However, this forum doesn't support subscript, so I transform the default notation to "3U2" notation which also means "turn the 3 uppermost layers a half turn".
  • For Megaminx R and D are "double layer moves of the entire megaminx. The U moves are normal U moves, not "double layer" or cube rotations
  • For Square1 the new notation is not entirely clear about when to perform a slice/half-turn. I adjusted the scrambles so that no slice-turns are to be performed at the beginning or the end (unless the scramble begins or ends with (0,0))
  • Clock hasn't changed, but just so you know: UddU u=-1,d=5 would mean Up-Left-pin is Up, Up-Right-pin is Down, Down-Left-pin is Down, Down-Right-pin is Up and that you need to turn a corner that has its pin up rotated counterclockwise by 1 hour and that you need to turn a corner that has its pin down rotated clockwise by 5 hours
  • Pyraminx small letters are for the tips
Just to make sure everyone understands: We follow the official WCA rules for all events. Here are some things that people often don't know:
  • For multiple blind you can choose how many cubes you are going to do (let me know if 15 scrambles is not enough). If you choose 5 cubes you have to use the first 5 scrambles.
  • For one-handed you can use both hands during inspection
  • For with feet you can only use feet during inspection
  • For 3x3x3 Fewest Moves there is a 1 hour time limit.
  • For relay you have 15 seconds of inspection in total, you can use any order to solve the cubes and the rest of the relay-rules should be obvious
For every event you participate in you will be rewarded points. You will also be rewarded points according to your ranking. Because this is quite a complicated system you can read about it in this thread. The results of the competition will be available as soon as possible after the competition closes at the end of the thread.

If you think other events should be added to this competition you can influence that in the 2008: Other events for Weekly competition thread

This competition starts now and ends wednesday/thursday nightchange (officialy), but I will only close a competition after the new one is on-line. If a competition doesn't start at wednesday/thursday nightchange you still get the full 7 days to participate.

2x2: 6.49, 6.58, (6.32), (9.39), 6.99 = 6.68
Comment: Really good.

3x3: 20.62, 24.23, 21.03, (20.34), (38.15) = 21.96
Comment: Ugh.

3x3 BLD: 1:38.24(~36), 2:09.87(~55), 1:45.07(~48) = 1:38.24
Comment: Those were insanely easy scrambles, I expect lots of people to get sub 1 this time.

3x3 OH: 36.35, 34.71, 42.94, (57.71), (29.63) = 38.00
Comment: Could have been much better. Messed up on the third solve and popped on the fourth.

3x3 MultiBLD: DNF (1/3 (15:36)) = 0 points
Comment: Ugh, one cube was off by a three cycle of edges and another by lots of twisted corners, I must have forgotten to execute corner orientation on that one. Bad result. Its been a really long time since I've tried 3 cubes.

3x3 MTS: 1:11.22, (1:32.45), (1:07.00), 1:12.59, 1:13.42 = 1:12.41
Comment: Very good.

Borrowed my friends Mf8II :)

2x2: 10.70, 9.13, 9.87, 7.45, 11.43 = 9.90
3x3: 21.10, 20.65, 24.86, 21.79, 24.46 = 22.45
Comment: The two slower ones had 4LLL, the others 3LLL. I think I'd could be sub 20 if I bothered my arse to learn full PLL and at least a few more OLL#
4x4: 1.19.42, 1.19.82, 1.22.92, 1.24.41, 1.28.92 = 1.22.38
Comment: Oh well.
5x5: 2.39.61, 2.26.04, 2.17.71, 2.28.84, 2.15.31 = 2.24.20
Comment: 2 really good singles.
6x6: 5.04.31, 4.58.70, 4.42.57, 5.27.09, 4.51.57 = 4.58.18
Comment: Popped 4th. I must work on OLL parity on 6x6, it takes upwards of 15secs at the moment.
7x7: 8.10.96, 7.57.71, 7.39.47, 7.01.84 , 7.47.84 = 7.48.26
Comment: Epic 4th solve. I'm a bit worried for Bristol at end of the month - the cut off for a mean is 8mins, and as can be seen from my first and second solves, I'm too close to it.
2-4 Relay: 1.51.11
2-5 Relay: 4.53.21
Comment: Good, considering that I only started the 5 at around 2.30. In a relay, I usually sup3 the 5 part.
Magic:1.61, 3.69+, 1.38, 1.36, 1.43 = 1.47
Master Magic: 2.84, 2.91, 2.86, 2.94, 2.91 = 2.89
Comment: A relief. The last couple of nights, I've had a real rough ride. Really really struggling to sub3. After just a few warm up solves tonight I found myself back on track.
3x3 OH: 1.03.40, 1.06.14, 1.16.79, 1.20.36, 59.69 = 1.08.78
Comment: Forced(?) PLL skip on last.
Pyraminx: 16.35, 14.60, DNS, 21.61, 19.88 = 19.28
Comment: 3rd scramble is identical to 2nd, so I DNS.
Square1: 44.12, 1.06.12, 46.81, DNF, 1.08.41 = 1.00.45
Comment: Popped 4th during my extraordinarily long winded parity solution, and couldn't really be bothered to finish off. Would have been my slowest time anyway.
Megaminx: 3.19.86, 3.06.83, 3.03.46, 3.52.08, 3.40.04 = 3.22.24
Comment: Know idea about the last two.
3x3 MTS: 1.48.58, 1.28.68, 1.59.83, DNF, 1.44.53 = 1.50.88

WOOHOO sub-5

3x3 : 11.97, 12.81, (14.27), (11.14), 11.78 = 12.19
What the hell? Is it me or are all the scrambles easy :S
It's just you :(
my 3x3:
DNF(29.50), 14.38, 18.15, 19.44, 13.86 = 17.33 (σ = 2.15)
First was a DNF because I messed up the v-perm I just learned from Westons thread.

2x2x2
(3.93), (5.52), 5.13, 4.96, 5.36 = 5.15
Woot. Nearly sub-5. I might learn CLL now.

3x3x3
19.10, (15.96), (20.93), 20.20, 19.55 = 19.62
Omg 2nd solve. I hardly believed the time when I saw it. Sub-20 also :D

4x4x4
(1:54.00), (1:25.96), 1:53.55, 1:33.69, 1:46.53 = 1:44.59
DP, no parity, DP, PP, DP... 7/10 parities. Not bad considering that.

I'm not really practicing anymore, so whatever... I may start to do a lot more when my Spring Break starts, or before another competition.

2x2x2: 4.50, 5.76, (6.18), 4.51, (3.58) = 4.92

3x3x3: (17.86), (12.54), 16.64, 16.77, 15.60 = 16.34
Ahaha it's been a while since I've gotten these times. My wrists were really shaking when I was doing this...

3x3x3 BLD: 1:27.23, DNS, DNS = 1:27.23
PB by about 30 seconds lol

Pyraminx: 5.94, 5.54, (6.72), 4.99, (4.80) = 5.49

2x2x2: (3.14), (4.77), 4.77, 4.49, 3.73 = 4.33
No practice is bad...
3BLD: DNF, DNF, DNF = DNF
Execution errors on the first attempt. Memo was about one minute. Re-executed without re-memorizing and got 40.08 execution success. Would have beaten my PB by over 4 minutes. Second attempt was 4:18.20. Off by 2 twisted corners. Would have beaten my PB by over 2 minutes. Last one, I had forgotten to change buffers and had to undo some cycles. Total was 7:01.73 but 2 edges were flipped.
2BLD: DNF, DNF, DNF = DNF
I just suck at BLD.
Multi: 0/2 (DNF) 18:wx.yz

2x2: 5.56, (6.05), (4.65), 5.19, 5.71 =5.49
Meh, average.

3x3: 18.26, (15.30), (22.09), 19.64, 15.65 =17.85
With those scrambles should've been sub17 average really...

3x3 OH: 41.48, 41.81, (57.97), 39.10, (34.43) =40.80
Don't know why I bothered posting this. So hilariously awful :mad:

2x2 BLD: 25.33, DNF, DNF =25.33
Easy speed solve, had to guess bits of the others to beat the 25 :p

3x3 BLD: DNF, DNF, 6:02.40 =6:02.40
Lol my accuracy and speed are both awful with new method but my 5 solves a day policy should help quickly... I hope :p

Clock: (16.31), 16.03, 15.42, 15.20, (13.76) =15.55
Funny that my average last week was 16.66 lol :p And each solve is better than the previous one haha.

FMC: 47
Just went crazy experimenting with inverse scrambles, pseudo blocks, and insertions... More of a learning solve than an actual FMC attempt.
