Round 162

Well have been keeping an eye out for the new scrambles tonight and was just about to go to bed and saw them posted so thought I might as well give it a go, pretty consistent average though I put myself under pressure on solve 10 and had to get the average back below 20 and managed it. Seven and a half months later and all round between 98 and 162 and eventually graduated. Thanks Mike for running a great motivating thread. Was aiming for months to be sub 20 before my 42nd birthday and only just missed by 3 days so can't really be displeased. Sub 15 before my 43rd? Might be a stretch but I'll give it a go!

For those interested the graph of my sub 20 race:-



number of times: 12/12
best time: 16.23
worst time: 26.01

current avg5: 19.93 (σ = 0.54)
best avg5: 19.59 (σ = 0.68)

current avg12: 19.82 (σ = 1.03)
best avg12: 19.82 (σ = 1.03)

session avg: 19.82 (σ = 1.03)
session mean: 20.04

Congratulations Selkie! Hip Hip!

Off-topic : Trying to write my own timer (Javascript). I can get it to start and be accurate, but using clearInterval(name) doesn't work for me. Any suggestions on how to stop it? After I get it to stop it seems relatively easy to put them into a list (although removing best and worst will be interesting).
PM me if you can help
