FMC: 31 moves

U B2 L' R' D [2x2x2]
B' L [Pairs]
B2 U2 L2 U' [Square]
L2 R B2 R2 U' R B U B [Pseudo F2L]
R B2 L2 D L D' L B2 R' U [LL]
L [Undo pseudoness]

Same LL as two (?) weeks ago. Found pretty much linearly, failed to find a 2C2E swap to cancel some moves, even though the LL can be solved in four ways (AUF before or after, normal or inverse).

2x2x2: 7.46, 8.58, (8.86), (6.33), 6.41 = 7.48

3x3x3: 21.05, (23.18), (19.52), 22.47, 21.05 = 21.52
1st: timer stopped at 0.03, so did another solve with the scramble:
B2 D2 L2 D F2 D2 B2 U' B2 D' L2 F' R2 U R L' D' B2 R' F D R'

4x4x4: 1:27.79, (1:26.27), 1:31.30, (1:50.10), 1:26.55 = 1:28.55
PP, NP, DP, NP, OP

7x7x7: 7:39.02, 7:37.96, 8:02.58, 8:32.67, (7:01.99) = 7:46.52
3rd: COLL miss, PLL miss x 2.
4th: POP.

3x3x3 Blindfolded: 2:53.27, DNS, DNS = 2:53.27

3x3x3 Fewest Moves: 29 HTM
Scramble: B2 U' B D2 B' R B' F2 L2 U' R2 F2 L2 B L B' L' B'
Solution: L2 F' U2 D F2 R' D2 F' R2 F B D' F u2 F' D F u2 F B' U F U' F' D F D L' F2

NISS solve.

(Inverse)
Pre-scramble: F2 D' U2 F L2

2x2x2 block: F2 L
2x2x3 block: D' F' D' F2

Then orient edges and make c/e pairs in the normal scramble.
And again on inverse:

(Inverse)
Pre-scramble: F' R2 F D2 R F2 D' U2 F L2

2x2x2 block: F2 L
2x2x3 block: D' F' D' F2
All but 3 c/e pairs: F' U F' U' F2
Pair 3-cycle: B (F u2 F' D' F u2 F' D) B'
Correction: F' R2 F D2 R F2 D' U2 F L2

I found three 20-move F2Ls, and this gave the best.

!!This is not a real entry!!
I just want to show the VB project I'm working on right now. It is taking all my time, so I don't have time to cube so much right now.

7x7x7: 6:41.03, 7:37.63, 6:34.28, 6:41.13, 6:50.27 = 6:44.14
Comment: Really good for me!
2x2x2 BLD: 20.65, 21.24, 33.46 = 20.65
3x3x3 BLD: 1:44.98, 1:36.94, 1:36.42 = 1:36.42
Comment: I thought these were really hard scrambles. The first one had the worst edges I’ve ever seen – it required 8 images!
4x4x4 BLD: DNF [8:03.40, 3:46, 9W 4C 2slices], DNF [8:32.17, 4:20, 3X 3W], 7:40.82 [3:40] = 7:40.82
5x5x5 BLD: 14:32.79 [7:24], 18:47.60 [8:37], 14:10.69 [7:39] = 14:10.69
Comment: On the second one, I applied almost all of the + center memorization to the X centers, and had to undo it all and redo it correctly; I was very happy to get it right!
6x6x6 BLD: DNF [25:50.32, 13:37]
Comment: Off by just 2 outer X centers, which I mismemorized.
7x7x7 BLD: DNF [43:36.98, 23:20]
Comment: Off by 2 corners and 3 inner X centers.
3x3x3 multiBLD: 11/15 = 7 points, 59:56.40 [39:50]
Comment: Again I was going too slow memorizing, so I didn’t bother to even look at the last 3 cubes. It really is the better strategy to do it this way, and it’s more fun this way too – this way I feel like I know what I’m doing instead of panicking. I was off by 3 edges on the sixth cube.
3x3x3 OH: 1:09.15, 44.83, 38.63, 45.53, 40.83 = 43.73
3x3x3 WF: 1:36.11, 1:25.21, 1:43.05, 1:36.91, 1:36.86 = 1:36.63
Comment: It’s so much easier on the carpet than it is on a hard floor.
3x3x3 Match the scramble: 1:23.46, 1:21.82, 1:03.52, 55.90, 1:13.42 = 1:12.92
3x3x3 Fewest Moves: 36 moves
U B2 L’ R’ D L2 B’ L B2 U L’ U’ L’ B L B’ L U’ L’ U B’ U’ B U’ B2 U’ L’ B R2 B’ L B R2 U2 B’ L’

2x2x2: U B2 L’ R’ D
Add premove L’, then 2x2x3: L2 B’ L B2 L’
Switch to inverse scramble:
3x cross: B U2 B’ . U B2
4th pair: U B’ U B U’ L U L’
Pseudo OLL: B L’ B’ L U L U’ L’
Insert at . : B R2 B’ L’ B R2 B’ L
B B’ cancel before insertion; L’ L cancel between 2x2x3 and pseudo OLL.
2-4 relay: 2:22.09 [O]
2-5 relay: 4:30.17
Magic: 9.30, 10.36, 8.94, 9.08, 16.13 = 9.58
Comment: OHITABLD, of course.
Master Magic: 3.59, 3.21, 3.86, 4.08, 3.33 = 3.59
Clock: 2:23.69 [0:30], 17.91, 17.61, 19.43, 15.43 = 18.32
MegaMinx: DNF [39:41.66, 24:49], 2:38.19, 3:02.63, 3:00.28, 3:00.59 = 3:01.17
Comment: BLD solve off by 2 corners misoriented, and 3 other corners oriented correctly but permuted incorrectly.
Pyraminx: 1:17.77, 13.02, 14.90, 13.25, 13.69 = 13.95
Square-1: 5:03.84 [2:35], 42.00 [P], 30.86, 56.00 [P], 47.22 [P] = 48.41
Comment: BLD solve was case NS; speedsolving was horrible.
Skewb: 2:30.97, 16.61, 21.43, 17.96, 18.36 = 19.25
 
2x2: 4.84 (5.01) (3.91) 3.97 4.35 => 4.39

Comment: Why can't I get averages like this in comp... :fp

4x4: 54.55 56.14 (59.66) (49.90) 59.04 => 56.58
Comment: I guess this is a "bad" single and average for me now, though sub-50 singles still make me happy. ;)

Finally! I have been checking this thread for days to see if some one else would comment on the edges of that scramble.
I was off by two edges because I actually missed the last cycle during memorisation. Should have check better but I was probably influenced by the large number of cycles I already had...

Wow - I just looked at it again and realized that's the maximum. It doesn't get any worse than that. I guess I'm really pretty happy with my 1:44.98 on that one! The other two scrambles were pretty bad too, though.
