Round 442

A couple of decent solves at the end kept it from being a total disaster, but still pretty bad. Unlucky scrambles for me - good practice I guess - a nice rehearsal of all my worst OLL and PLL cases.
 
I guess I'm back, seeing as I've switched to roux. :)
I'm not actually even sub-25 yet, but I don't think that will take more then a week or two.

Look at that - all times were sub20. I didn't really think I was sub-20 yet, but evidently I am.

@penguinz I use roux too!
 
I have been doing slow walk through solves for a week and it is finally paying off.

Awesome! How long have you been doing it?

A loooong time. I've been cubing off and on for at least 5 years (though I think it has been closer to 8). I've been a speedcuber pretty much since the beginning. I started with CFOP though, and I switched to Roux about 2.5 years ago (I think).

I just improve really slowly :P Except at pyraminx. But my improvement with pyraminx could be because I've successfully done the 10,000 solve marathon on two occasions. So...I do a lot of pyraminx. (I think I got my first pyra May 2011, was averaging about 18 seconds with it in Sept-Nov 2011, 12 in Jan2012, 10 in May, 8 in August (first 10k solve marathon), 5 in Nov/Dec 2013 (second marathon), and about 5 now (I took a break and had to regain my speed))
That was probably broken down a lot more than you wanted :p
