I average about 5:15-5:30 normally...to your PS, don't worry people have already done it, including Chris, who is currently trying to get fast enough to take the UWR, you can check out the people crazy enough to do this on speedcubing.com. Ummm...you really only need the 1 algorithm to add to what you are having a problem with...
