Welcome to the pre-nats/whatever avg1000/5000/10000 race thread!

Rules:

1. You must do an avg of x for your solving time that corresponds with this table
Avg OfTime In Seconds (That it takes you to solve the puzzle)
1000>30
50007-29
100007
2. Post updates frequently! Whether it's every day, or every important milestone, do it!

3. Improve! That's the whole point of this, and trust me, you will!

4. Be awesome! 'nuff said

I'll do 4x4. It's going to be a weird average, because the first few solves are essentially going to be me trying out two or three different methods, but it should be fun, and practice makes better!

EDIT: It looks weird to see 3 names and a username, can you change it to Josh?

17 Days left lol. I'm planning on doing the same thing for 5x5 after this.
I love this tread Jacob (I was planning on making a similar one but no need for that now lol).

Awesome! I think it's better to just post whenever you have something interesting (PB, milestone, multiple of 100 solves done) than to just update one post.

Yeah but I wanted to have a nice overview of my progress :D
Yeah, but then it will et buried by everyone elses posts.

The problem with 2x2 and 3x3, is that for them, you can do an avg1000 in like a day or two, whereas for 5x5/feet or something, it takes like a month. Feel free to join if you want to though!
Yeah, but if it's 27 days until nats, to do longer events like megaminx or 5x5 would take like 2-3 hours a day for me. I'll do 2 3 and 4 though. That's a little more than an hour and a half.

My progress so far, not much.

2x2:
50: avg: 8.42

Ill Join, For Sqr- 1. Don't worry though I'm so slow that an Ao50 would take 2-2.5 days. Ill try to kick it into overdrive and do 30 each day.

The problem is that adding more rows to that is basically impossible (unless I'm missing something). Either way, added to the OP.
