Round 323
21.07
21.41, 23.12, 20.73, 20.78, 20.65, (17.96), 21.20, 23.20, 19.06, 21.30, 19.24, (23.72)

Not quite as bad as the past couple of rounds, but still some pretty bad solves. I was doing really well with F2L, but I wound up staring at too many OLLs and PLLs for too long before starting them - that's really mostly what ruined the average for me.

Round 323
19.96
19.47, 20.22, (21.39), (18.06), 20.12, 21.00, 20.79, 18.66, 20.12, 21.12, 18.37, 19.72

That came a lot closer than I would have liked. In fact, right before the last solve, the session average was 19.99 seconds. I kid you not. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy.

Round 323
Average: 23.35

not great, but a fairly typical Ao12 for me. No sub-20s, about 5 solves ruined by lockups because I was rushing.

Still lots of work to do - I still can't look ahead!!!

Round 324
19.67

Wow, that was so lucky. I felt like it was mostly terrible solving, but I kept getting lucky breaks in every solve - easy cross, easy pair, easy OLL, something. Every one of the solves seemed easy. This actually felt like a bad average other than that.

Normally would be decent, but I was in the zone before this, and was expecting sub20. First four solves were sub20, but I choked. :(

Round 324

Average: 22.09

28.38, 17.36, 20.81, 19.45, 19.66, 25.47, 22.71, 21.24, 23.64, 23.01, 20.36, 24.51

First 5 solves were 19.97 Ao5. Thought for a minute I could keep it going, but then it fizzled out! This week I've mostly been working on lookahead, and I think it's paying off. What I thought was lookahead was just trying to spot my next pair quickly. I kind of 'get it' now, and I can see sub-20 being pretty achievable. :)
