Absolutely ridiculous mean, fairly certain I won't beat this for multiple years (if ever)
So lucky that I am not even particularly happy about this mean. The first solve was decent but my turning on the next two was mid at best. I guess it's cool that I didn't DNF any of these scrambles or forget anything or make significant mistakes. I could have choked and I didn't so I'll take that as a win. Just kind of annoying that I got these scrambles while doing a super rusty and casual 3bld sesh.
Every scramble was 8 algs floated to 7. Three 7 algers in a row, assuming one uses full floating and LTCT, is roughly 1 in 3.6 MILLION...and these scrambles didn't even need LTCT.
For reference, my previous PB mo3, 15.84 (and my only other sub-16 mean lmao), was on 28 algs floated to 26. This one was 24 floated to 21.
I wouldn't be surprised if this forever remains the luckiest 3 scrambles I'll ever get in any event ever for the rest of my cubing career.

![How to have sub-12 3BLD execution (weilong v11 ASMR)
The much anticipated sequel to How to have sub-15 3BLD execution
I deliberately avoided using floating buffers or LTCT on all of these solves. These are all just 10 algers (or 11 algers) with basic 3-style, plus breaking in to flips and twists here and there, and some very simple 1 or 2 move cancels on occasion.
Literally just have decent algs and flow well between them. Turning doesnt even have to be that spammy or crazy. Floating/LTCT makes these times easier but the point here is that those things are not required. These solves probably average like 8.0 STPS. Can you do [U, R E R] sub-1 second? Thats 8.0 STPS :)

![know your uf-ur+2cs
TL;DR, I learned full UF-UR+2c parity algs for full floating in MBLD, and it has consistently been very useful in 3BLD. This solve was 9 algs floated to 7, and the only way I could make it 7 algs was by utilizing UF-UR+UBR-BUL parity :)
