Yumu Tabuchi 3X3X3 OH NEW WR

[Olivér Perge]

ps. who's the biggest cuber, btw? I know Perge is like 2,5m tall, but is there someone bigger around?

Excuse me?

yeah, how you dare say Olivér is just 2,5 meters tall? what a shame...

That was just a raw estimation based on some pictures/videos, haven't seen him irl. I thought 2,5m was enough

Zava was being sarcastic. 2,5 meters is like Guiness World Record.

I'm - believe it or not - 1,88 meter high. And that should be all the off in this topic.

Yes, I didn't miss his sarcasm.
As a kid I was pretty interested in different statistics and I still remember that tallest man was 2,72m. There used to be a 2,5m tall finnish guy and my father once played a card with him in the train.

I had to told this, but no more off topic from me here.

You have a lousy excuse for not coming Dan. I have hitchhiked 2500 km through Japan in 2 days (and nights), spend 2 days on ferries from Japan to Korea and then to China (I am skipping over some busses, trains, metro's and cars here) all to give you the big hug I promised Erik I would give you... and you mumble something about a goverment stamp

Anyway, it was a chaotic competition with some amazing results. Strangely enough the Japanese delegation had been in China for 3.5 days, but they had to leave at 13:00. I am currently hanging out with some cubers I met here in Beijing

Well if I knew you were going to give me a hug, then I would've told that to the visa officer here. He surely would've let me come then!

Wow lol how did I miss that, "Ta" = He, "bu" = negative word, "chi" = to eat

 

[alabing11]

How was it a DNF by the way? Wrong PLL? Off by a M slice?

When he finished his third attempt,he touched the timer before he throwed the cube away.So,that's a DNF.

 

[luchen]

So many friends here...by the way,tabuchi is cool.And he speaks little.I think he is shy.

Aren't there like a lot more possible meanings to that word? With the whole inflection stuff. . . I'm not too familiar with Chinese, but aren't there four different ways of saying each syllable?

When Tabuchi broke WR of 3x3 AVG,I posted a joke in mf8.

Someone asked:This guy broke WR,how did he do it?Did he train day and night and didn't eat anything?
Someone answered:Yes,he didn't eat.

yep but everyone will regard "Ta Bu Chi" as "he doesn't eat" no matter if he knows this person
Tabuchi is cool
