Good job!

The DNF should be your worse time, so the 26 counts.

I'm trying to host this at least for now, could also try to revive the 4x4 race. Slight bump here, just set completely new goals if you wish to (at least my goal is terrible :D).

Round 21
Race to sub-8
Cube: Moyu Magnetic

7.59, 6.35, 7.34, 7.87, 8.83, 6.58, (12.95), 8.90, 7.94, 10.27, 9.49, (3.75) = 8.12 avg

That 12 sure messed me up! Hey so @T1_M0 I have a tip for you, to do with running this thing. Use a google doc like in your PB sheet, but have columns for time, goal, and cube. Then have rows for every name. for an example look at the race to sub-x for pyra thread. @CornerCutter does a great job managing that.

Good luck!

I'm doing so in the blind race thread, there's some work with it already. I'm just trying to continue this thread like it has been, without much of extra work. If someone else has an interest for that, I'd just be happy to not host so many threads.

Hey everyone! So sorry i forgot about rebooting this until now. Skewb is a really fun event and it deserves a weekly race to sub-x thread on this website. I've made a model of how the spreadsheet is going to look, but i actually made a mistake on this one. There will be a box indicating which barrier everyone is racing too. And i will color code it when someone reaches their goal, similar to other races on here. Anyway, I'm just sending out this message to start the race! Scrambles below. Good luck, everyone!

Maybe you could include round 21 results and continue from there? But I don't know, maybe a new start will work.
