Welcome back! It obviously been a long time, since you forgotten that you have to name your events :)
Considering it's you I guess it's 3OH and 3x3, but the result program is not good at guessing.

Ah you are correct! I must apologize, it truly has been a while haha :) And I'm somewhat surprised you remembered my main events x] I suppose that's good lol
 
Very nice big cube BLDing everyone. :tu

2x2: (5.95), 6.64, 8.38, (9.28), 9.16 = 8.06
3x3: (14.09), (16.22), 14.24, 15.37, 14.16 = 14.59
4x4: 1:13.03, 1:03.57, (56.46), (1:13.47), 1:12.32 = 1:09.64
5x5: (2:04.67), 2:35.76, 2:33.46, (2:59.80), 2:45.00 = 2:38.07
2x2 + 3x3 + 4x4 relay: = 1:35.50
2x2 + 3x3 + 4x4 + 5x5 relay: = 4:11.24
3x3 OH: (27.68), 24.33, 25.30, 24.47, (22.68) = 24.70
Pyraminx: 10.31, (19.35), (9.11), 14.85, 10.85 = 12.00

2x2 BLD: DNF, DNF, DNF = DNF
3x3 BLD: DNF, 1:35.58+, 1:51.02 = 1:35.58
Comment: Horrible. The first one would've been good if I didn't stuff up a commutator, the two success were a combination of awful memo and recall.
4x4 BLD: DNF, DNF, 7:15.66 = 7:15.66
Comment: Ugh, I can't stand short cycles. The amount of time spent confirming that all pieces have been cycled takes way too long.
5x5 BLD: DNF, 13:29.55, DNF = 13.29.55
3x3 Multi BLD: 9/11 (29:16.78) = 7 points

The logarithmic fit looks quite realistic.

Interesting stuff :)
I assume the timescale is year. Which of Mikes results have you used? Official or here from the weeklies?
Where on the timescale are we now? What was zero point, Mikes first official contest?

@Chris & Mike, thanks for the praise, but you are both so much better. However much I better myself
you are still so far in front. Using Runes logarithmic predictions I just guess I will never catch you :)

So I have to use my usual lollipop, I do think I am the oldest 6x6 bld solver :). And some comfort also
from the fact that I actually solved faster the 6x6 faster than Mike (yes, I saw you had a bad solve and
had to retract and stuff).

As for reorienting, I did not see how to get 30 centers solved. I had 26. Maybe it is a question for some
other thread, but I wonder why I don't manage to get more centers solved on a 7x7 than I do. I think
I normally get 25-30, but that is almost the same as I get for a 6x6. Maybe two or three less on a 6x6.
As there are 24/25 centers compared to 16 I assume you would get a lot more. (Of course not as
much more as a factor 24/16, as the distribution given randomness would tend to be more even with
more centers, but perhaps 20% more). I have forgotten how to calculate that (if I ever could), perhaps
the easiest is to make a small simulation of it. And yes, I don't use the parity alg for reorienting, so I
choose from 12 possible setups instead of 24. Still my gut feeling is that I should get more than I think
I do.

Square-1: (30.25) (56.08) 55.33 45.94 42.38 = 47.88
 
It´s simply Mike´s latest results in the Weekly competition: 2011-08 (25.99), 2011-09 (25.42), 2011-10 (21.64). (I only wished to test the FIT function on real values). It clearly shows that Mike will reach his aim in the near future.
(We have to encourage Mike here. He is such a defaitist as to the 3x3).

3x3x3 Blindfolded: DNF [2:57.24], 2:27.93, DNS = 2:27.93

4x4x4 Blindfolded: DNF [17:00.81], DNS, DNS = DNF
1st: Off by 3 corners: http://twitpic.com/47v0l1

1st: miss while swapping two wing-edges??

3x3x3 Multiple Blindfolded: 3/4 (31:02.47)

3x3x3 Fewest Moves: DNF
Scramble: B R B' D F' R2 B' L' B2 L B L' U2 L B U2

Some of my tries:

[1]
(For inverse scramble)
Pre-scramble: R F L R2

1st square: L'
2nd square: D' B R B'
3rd square: F'
F2L minus 1 slot: R' B' L2

[2]
Pre-scramble: L' B2 F D L

2x2x3 block: R B' L2
Orient edges: L' U' L

(after 1-hour)
F2L minus 1 slot: U' F U' F L F * L' U2
All but 3 corners: F2 D F' U' F U D'
Correction: L' B2 F D L

Insert at *: B R2 B' L2 B R2 B' L2

(32 HTM)

The start of Cubenovice's skeleton is quite similar to the scramble. :o

Those are some good lollipops! :) Yes, I think you're the oldest 6x6x6 BLD solver, pretty easily. And nice job solving it so fast - it's not easy to go fast on a 6x6x6!

Click to expand...

I found the 26 first, but then I found the 30. I may have spent as much time finding the extra 4 as I would have spent just solving them. :) But the reorient for 30 is z y2.

As for the 3x3x3, those two super-25's were simply ridiculous. But I'm hoping Rune is still right - I'm going to go for it. Sub-20 this week! :)

Hi Okyama, Good to see you are OK!

About the FMC: I didn't even notice.

The initial six moves (apart from the 4th) are indeed identical to the scramble but how can one NOT see the three 2x1 blocks that make the 2x2x2?.

Most of the time I actually do not even look at the cube during scrambling so I can honestly say that I did not see the block near the end of the scramble.

However I am wiling to leave this up to the discretion of the head Judge for this event.

Will post this in the FMC thread too to see what the experts think.
