Who Will Be the Surpasser of Feliks Zemdegs?

I stand corrected.

My point being, he was like 13 or so when he started, and he was sub 20 after a month or so. Something like that. He also set his first WR's when he was 13.

If you're going to post, at least cross check your facts first -.-

Getting a sub20 ao5 doesn't really count as being sub 20 in my opinion
 
Honestly, nobody. I think at this point someone cant spend enough time practicing all the events to become amazing at all of them. I think were going to have one person totally dominating for each event.

OMFG WHATEVER. I really don't care that much, and that's not my point.

MY POINT BEING age is not a super big factor in cubing.

You're joking right? When you get older, you get college, more school work, have to get a job, maybe 2. Clearly younger people have more free time to cube/do whatever they want. I'm guessing you are probably 13 and haven't had to manage any responsibility in your life yet.

You joined the forum 10 months ago, so you've probably been cubing for longer.
You got down to sub 23 in a month and a half and it took you till 2 weeks ago to graduate from the racing to sub 20 thread.
Those (at least) 8 months must've been really painful after improving so quickly.

I joined in then, but i didn't start cubing for real (learned how to solve it actually) until September 29th. And the reason for graduating so late is because I hate participating in race threads. I have no motivation

Also because I was stuck at 21 seconds for 2 weeks and got frustrated and quit 3x3 for about 2 months lol.

Plus I was talking about relatively, in X amount of time I was down to this time, and his results are very similar to what mine were. Or did you mis-read my post?

Also, I had been sub 20 for a lot longer then 2 weeks..lol when I graduated I was like sub 18

I had taken about 3 and a half months of ACTUAL cubing (not the time I quit, which makes it about 5 and a half) to get down to sub 20 from the 23 second mark. And about another month and now I am averaging about 17.3.

I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about you don't have to be in a specific range of age to be this good or be averaging xy.xy. You are over analyzing what i'm trying to say.

And actually, I do have a lot of responsibility on my shoulders right now. It's religious though, however so if I explained you probably wouldn't care.

And also, geometry takes a lot of work.
So shut up. (Jk)
 
I go to school 30 hours a week, I'm a reservist, I have a second side job with bout 12 to 15 hours a week, I train and own at CoDMW2 and I still find the time to practice enough to be sub 16. It's time management, nothing more IMO.

Just my two-cents.

For the thread's question: I doubt Feliks will last very long in 3x3x3 WR specifically since he made a **** load of other world class cubers realize that sub 8 avg was possible.... Like Yumi Tabuchi just went crazy and Rowe is not that far behind, I would say it's a matter of months before any of those (let's say) top 8 3x3 cubers get this ONE perfect solve and break Felik's time by a tenth of a second.

If Feliks gets beaten by a tenth of a second, he would probably beat it again anyway.

jessica fridrich herself states that the limit for speedcubing is about 5 seconds avg or something like that. She says so on her website :P

BUT TEH SNYDER MEFOD THREE IS GONNA BE FAZTER

In all seriousness, times change. It was believed not too long ago that the limit was 10-12 seconds. We may surpass the current boundaries that we know very soon.

Nonono, she estimates that the limit is 5 seconds, she does not at all state that;

"I estimate the limit for speed cubing at 5 seconds (the average time)" - Jessica Fridrich

Also, lol theanonymouscuber, just, lol.
