FMC 36

Scramble : B D' B U F L' R2 B' F2 U F U R2 B2 U' L2 U'

2x2x3 minus one move : B' R' U' L2 F2 U2 L' (7)
F2L to LS : B' D B' D L' D2 L' D2 L' (9, 16)
Pair up : B D' B' L' (4, 20)
All but 2-twist : D L D' L' (4, 24)
CO : F R' U2 R F' D2 F R' U2 R F' (11, 35) ... Optimal L-twist com
AUF : D (1, 36)

Not much time left for a CO insertion, I spent 30+ minutes to improve the continuation from the 2x2x3, that I found fairly quick. Then it was not the best corner case you can get, but there are worse...

2x2 - 9.05 7.36 7.21 7.59 7.69 = 7.55 Comment - I got a bout 2 seconds quicker a few weeks back, and it has proved to not be fluke.
3x3 - 20.46 19.97 20.02 26.88 20.78 = 20.42 Comment - some dick stamped on my main cube in the boozer the other day, and this new GuHong just will not break in. Good considering though
4x4 - 1.14.65 1.20.83 1.12.93 1.12.84 1.11.81 = 1.13.47 Comment - X-cube is a weird cube, some days I get avgs like this, others I'll get sup1.30s. Nevertheless - 100K wt Diff oil has made it infinitely better.
5x5 - 2.25.19 2.31.31 2.10.13 2.17.22 2.10.19 = 2.17.53 Comment - Counting 2.10 helped
6x6 - 3.52.86 3.40.63 3.54.38 3.56.93 3.39.59 = 3.49.29 Comment - Very good. 100K wt Diff oil has slowed it down, made it more stable, and helped my look ahead.
7x7 - = 6.31.50 6.20.11 7.15.31 6.30.84 6.19.08 = 6.27.48 Comment - PB I think, or very close to it.
2x2 BLD - DNF 56.50 1.13.81 = 56.50 Comment - Always nice to get 2 on the bounce
3x3 OH - 49.33 1.13.77 44.26 45.30 55.13 = 49.92 Comment - Not too bad, given new cube
3x3 MTS - = 1.40.61 1.24.43 1.15.80 1.15.78 1.21.71 = 1.20.65 Comment - Good I guess.
3x3 FMC - = 62 moves
F' U' L' B' L' U2 B2 z2 (7)
L U' L2 U' L (12)
U B' U' B U2 B' U B (20)
U' R U2 R' U B U B' (28)
R U2 R' U2 R U R' (35)
y' R U R' U R U' R' U' R' F R F' U (48)
R' U R' U' y R' F' R2 U' R' U R' F R F (62)

Like pyraminx, I excel in this discipline.
2-4 Relay - 1.53.11 Comment - Okay
2-5 Relay - 4.25.34 Comment - Not too good
Magic - 1.56 1.56 3.38 DNF 1.55 = 2.17 Comment - Yeah.
Master Magic - 2.58 2.61 2.63 2.63 2.78 = 2.62 Comment - Nice considering the lack of practise I have done. Note to self - Practise.
Clock - 14.63 13.93 DNF 13.02 12.59 = 13.86 Comment - Nice, I guess
Megaminx - 2.17.16 2.20.33 2.26.36 3.00.88 2.24.05 = 2.23.58 Comment - Not sure what happened on 4th
Pyraminx - 14.50 17.68 20.08 13.68 15.31 = 15.83 Comment - Wow, I just love this puzzle so much.
Sq1 - 1.01.72 57.58 1.00.91 1.05.15 1.07.86 = 1.02.59
Skewb - I have a LL on order, so I may participate if it arrives. I don't know a speedsolving method yet, so if I do take part, we can all laugh at my times.

comment: I was happy about the fast solve, but not happy with the low accuracy. At least I made up for the accuracy with the 5x5x5 speedsolve scrambles :D
6x6x6BLD: DNF
comment: Sloppy, just sloppy. Multiple stupid mistakes.
3x3x3 Fewest Moves: 36 moves

NISS solve

Pseudo 2x2x2: B D2 R' (do premove R' to see it)
Switch to inverse scramble
pseudo-2x2x3 on top of the pseudo 2x2x2: F2 L F' L2 F (Do premove F before the inverse scramble to see the full block)
Pseudo-F2L minus 1 block: L D' L' D2 B' L2 B
F2L plus oriented edges: D2 B D B' D B' L B L'
COLL with an EPLL skip: L' R D R' D' L D2 R D2 R' D2

Since I find this style of explaining a bit awkward for NISS solves, here was my work flow taken directly from my note page:

(F2L2F'LF.LD'L'D2B'L2B..D2BDB'DB'LBL'...L'RDR'D'LD2RD2R'D2)' R' (SCRAMBLE) B D2 R' [F']

comment: Very excited to have gotten a successful average! I made so many memory errors during the 18:35 solve that I had to keep correcting, but I kept at it. I'm actually more excited that I still got the first solve successfully than I am about any of the other solves (as weird as that might sound)!
