      Wait, but if you give him a WR for breaking 3 WR within a day, shouldn't you give him a WR for breaking 4 WR in a day? Wait, if you give him 5 WR for breaking 3 WR within a day, plus the WR for that WR, shouldn't you give him a WR for having a WR WR or 3 WR? What?!?

      @debeastdueeast 10 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Kevin Li I think you misunderstand me - your original comment was that he should get a World Record for getting 3 World Records within a day. I replied with a joke, saying that if he should get a World Record for getting 3 World Records in a day (Which would be 4 World Records, 3+1), then he should get a World Record for getting 4 World Records within a day (The 3 initial World Records + the World Record for getting 3 World Records), which would then mean that he should have 5 world records. And so on ad infinitum.

    I'm so late to this game, forty years old, started cubing this past December just to say I could solve one.. Currently rocking a solid 3.5 minute solve on the 3x3 and learning to hate "parity errors" on the 4x4.
    To see Feliks killing the 7 second barrier is awesome and humbling at the same time.. I'll be happy when I learn F2L and can get below 2 minutes.

    Things like this slightly discourage me from cubing. My best is 25.56 seconds achieved in about a year of solving, most of the time I didn't even practice. Even though I am not a good speedcuber I try to beat my times. That feeling when you beat your record is just great!
