  • This was my fastest 3x3x3 solve at this year’s Cuboss Open, and a new personal record too! What’s more, it was the fastest solve in my new PR average of 30.27 seconds. I’m very happy! 😎
    Check out wca-seniors.or... and you’ll see that this solve puts me at #13 in the world for my age group, just ahead of Lars Petrus, the inventor of the Petrus method.
    If you like the duck, it came from here: killarneyducks... 😎🦆
    My cube is a DaYan TengYun “v1” M, which I’ve modified to make the white side black. You can buy it here: cuboss.se/shop...
    The scramble (oriented with yellow top, green front):
    B R' F2 U F2 U' B2 D2 R2 F' D' L2 F2 L D' B2 R2 B2
    Reconstruction of the solve:
    y // inspection [00:15]
    B’ R L’ u L’ u // cross (6 = 6) [00:18]
    L’ U’ L U2 L’ U’ L // F2L1 (7 = 13) [0:22]
    R’ U2 R U2 L U L’ // F2L2 (7 = 20) [0:25]
    U y R U’ R’ U2 L’ U L // F2L3 (8 = 28) [0:29]
    U2 R’ F R F’ d’ L’ U’ L // F2L4 (9 = 37) [00:31]
    U f’ L F L’ U’ L’ U L S // OLL (10 = 47) [00:35]
    U y x’ R2 D2 R’ U’ R D2 R’ U R’ // PLL (10 = 57) [00:39]
    57 / 24.31 = 2.34 TPS

    For some odd reason, it is more satisfying to watch than records of much faster speedcubers. In their videos, it's often about beating everyone else's times. Here it's just a patient path to beat your own time.

    • @MrNoName7474
      @MrNoName7474 5 місяців тому +6

      Agreed. Even just official stats and records on wca could be cool. Comps are definitely dominated by young kids so stuff like awards might be impractical to add, but more stats hopefully. I suppose they’d have to get ages from competitors and would be hard to retroactively update the record books, but worth considering imo. I’ll be a ‘master’ soon enough lol.

    • @sq-one
      @sq-one 5 місяців тому

      it's not official (though the age data is officially sourced), but there's a page that ranks competitors in age brackets. if you look up "wca senior rankings," you should be able to find it.

    • @MrNoName7474
      @MrNoName7474 5 місяців тому

      @@sq-one Oh nice, this is fun to look at. Will be interested to see how that develops in the future. Already pretty great times regardless of age, but anyone who’s 40 now was already a young adult really when WCA was starting in 2003. And the competitions were really scarce for a long time and exponentially took off in the last decade as well as cubing hardware and knowledge. Like most of the records are even faster than what I can do, but how much slower will 10 years make me. Surely some big names like Feliks will still be capable of sub-8.32 when he’s 40. Maybe I can snag some records if I age well which I think I can. Making a comeback lately getting my first 3x3 single pr in over 6 years.

    • @OldManLink
      @OldManLink  5 місяців тому

      Yes, I bought two identical cubes, one stickerless, and one black with stickers, from this page: cuboss.se/shop/dayan-tengyun-m/?attribute_pa_farg=svart
      I took out all the pieces from the stickerless cube that hade white on, and dismantled those pieces. Then I did the same for the black cube with stickers, and swapped the white pieces for black ones with white stickers. Next I reassembled the pieces and put the cubes back together. Finally, I removed the white stickers from the newly swapped-in pieces, revealing the black underneath.
      Since I also do multiblind, I repeated the process for another eleven cubes, meaning that I now have twelve cubes like this, and two all-white ones.
