Seems like a good way to practice for comps, with all the noise.

How badly does being inebriated affect your intuition and memo? Do you use the mind palace thingy for memo?

My inspection and lookahead both get much worse when drunk. I can still plan enough by taking longer, but the latter tanks my times :P

Getting back into cubing for a bit. My solves are worse but my times are better, which is an unfortunate trend.

What’s up with you?

Hello, if anyone still has a reddit account I’d totally appreciate someone’s help to dispel a cubing misconception that I’ve created.

Basically, you’d need to post a couple of comments on my behalf because reddit won’t let me :(

This may get your account suspended, which totes isn’t worth it, so only reply if you don’t think that might happen.

Thanks for reading~

What have folks been up to this past week?

I love how intently the judge is watching. Sure, they have a job to do, but you can tell that they are also in awe of Chapel’s performance.

#Speedcubing
New 4BLD World record by Stanley Chapel in :
1:04.60 mean of 3

When you look at the world ranking single and average, other cubers are only fighting for second place… And they are far away.
Amazing.

What have folks been up to this past week?

I’ve been a bit busy, but managed to squeeze in a bit of 3BLD practice while I was at a pub with friends.

Sub 30 back in the day, our method wasn’t very speed optimized. I can still solve them when one pops up, so it’s a fun skill to have in my pocket.

@narusite @cubers
I don't really understand the point 🤷
But you can "unmixed" singles and averages with Result.

@l_inadapte @cubers
In https://pglewis.github.io/wca-recent-senior-records/recent/ there are only recents events. And singles and averages are mixed. Also, you’ll have to select 90 days since yellow results from wca-seniors.org are less than 3-month old

@narusite @cubers
And if you select 3x3 event, you have different results. It's strange 🤔

@l_inadapte @cubers

There is also a website with Senior Kinch Ranks: https://pglewis.github.io/wca-recent-senior-records/kinch-ranks/
and the Recent Senior Records has a different presentation (all age categories together): https://pglewis.github.io/wca-recent-senior-records/recent/

Yup that’s him

@l_inadapte @cubers 11th is that the youtuber Tingman?

:)

Hhaha. I was sub 10 at my peak. I haven’t seriously cubed in like 8 years.

So I would definitely need to invest a lot of time to get back there.

Oh hey! I’ve seen you around Lemmy, but didn’t know you’re a cuber! Glad to see you here.
