By (semi-) popular demand, I'm going to start this "Race to Sub-12" thread in place of the dead/dying "Race to Sub-15" thread.

The rules will be pretty standard for a race-to thread. Every round, I will post 12 scrambles. Take an average of 12 of those, dropping the best and worst times, and post the average. Be sure to post all of your times, and not just your average.

Rounds will begin on Sunday and Wednesday afternoon (UTC-6) of each week. I will tally and report the results at the end of each round. Get a sub-12 Ao12 three weeks in a row, and you "graduate". As of round 13: Until participation increases, round lengths will be increased to one full week, each round starting on Sunday.

Also, be sure to post what event you will be competing in (OH, 2H), although at this point I don't really see any events other than 2H being realistic for sub-12, go ahead and do as you please.

Any questions? Good. Go.

Probably like the Race to sub-20 thread, where the thread is updated every Monday and Thursday (or in this case Sunday/Wednesday?) where results of the previous round are posted and new scrambles are given. This thread should probably be updated in a few days with results of this round and new scrambles.

Ah. I forgot to clarify this. Sorry.

New rounds will begin every Sunday and Wednesday afternoon (UTC-6). Results will generally be tallied and reported those nights as well.

Also, to others: If possible, please post the round number you are participating in somewhere near the top of your post. It doesn't have to be bolded or enlarged, just somewhere in your post please.

Thanks.
