World Record predictions in the year 2020?

5x5 BLD - 9:xx
3x3 multi BLD - 20(Mike?)
Actually, the way things are going now, I seem pretty stuck on multi. I think I'll definitely NEVER hold the world record for multi.

On the other hand, 9:xx seems quite attainable on 5x5x5 BLD for me; even 8:xx doesn't seem impossible. It'll take years, mind you, but it's certainly possible.

I believe 5x5x5 BLD is currently the easiest WR to get in our database. Chris, Ville, and Rafal all actually average below the world record, and Ville and Rafal are both such that they need a really bad solve to not break the WR (assuming they get successful solves). When Ville was practicing it regularly, he was actually averaging around 9:00!
 
Clock - same single, sub-9 avg.

Master Magic - No change

What? First of all: the clock average is already sub-9, it's 8.60. Second: i would be shocked if the single WR wouldn't be broken by the end of 2010.

Third: i agree that the master magic single (1.72) seems impossible right now, and top cubers can barely do that at home, but the average is quite possible.

In my opinion. :)

Anyway more or less i agree with your list if they were predictions for the year 2012-2013, however these sub-x things are tricky:

For example: 2x2 avg: sub-2.30. It means it can be 2.29 or 1.80 either. :)


For your information: in 2008 26/29 WR were broken, in 2009 it's 26/33 at the moment.

Clock - same single, sub-9 avg.
Magic - .65 single, .79 avg

3x3 multi BLD - 20(Mike?)

These are quite unambitious WR predictions for 10 years from now... especially clock and MM, which, if the WRs don't change at all, would satisfy your prediction.

My guess.. everything that he said but better..
and 2x2 will be a new single...

It's a VERY long time.. so sub-7 average for 3x3 is the least I can guess.

Me too >_>

Sub-7 average and sub-6 single would be better estimates, although perhaps not for 2020, since those are my goals for the end of this year.

Faz will be getting the 3x3x3 times in his next comp.
 
2x2 single ~ 0.6 (I did 0.72 with 4 moves solution at home)
avg sub 2
4x4 single sub 25
average sub 37
5x5 single sub 55
average sub 1:05
6x6 single sub 1:40

pyraminx single sub 1
average sub 3
square-1 single sub 7 (Grzegorz Prusak DNFed 6.xx)
average sub 11
megaminx single sub 45
average sub 58
BLD is discussive. If someone has olympic memo he can do even 30 cubes in an hour and 4x4 bld sub 2 ^^

1. Who asked this?

2. How is that on topic?

3. How about saying: "I think...", "in my opinion..", "I hope..." or anything like that instead of saying that it is 100% sure.

4. It's not helping him getting the WR, actually it makes his job harder, he said so.

5. What if he won't? Will you admit that you were wrong? Will you and all the others stop posting this?


Sorry if it sounds rude, I'm kind of new to this forum but every other topic I ran into is about fazrulz1. I'm not saying he is bad, he has a potential but please wait until he is getting better OFFICIALLY! He is not the best cuber in the world, not even in 3x3. Wait until he is becoming the best.

You can be happy for others but the meantime respect the other cubers (the actual record holders), please.

Thanks!

Feel free to comment, that is my opinion...

In 2012, as the 6x6x6 world record of 6.66 is being made by Erik at The Hague Open 2012, which six cubers will organize (who will sing Number of The Beast), the world will end at 6:06.66 PM. There is no question about this.
