Practicing F2L..... Hopefully my times will get better soon!
 
OK, could someone explain to me what averages we are meant to do? It isn't mentioned anywhere, my averages are with the best and worst times removed, then Igora said his(or her) 20.06 pb time improved the average. It would probably motivate me to not go slow on dud solves.
 
Average: 31.01

1. (37.42)
2. 36.75
3. 34.75
4. 27.40

Not bad i was doing better today though. got a 26.xx average but what ever i will get it sooner or later also i am color neutral so that helps this was with my new lingyun!
 
Round 26

Average: 47.08

1. 29.16
2. 49.75
3. 1:26:90
4. 47.81
5. 46.02
6. 49.89

10. 41.13
11. 42.44
12. 49.02

On 3 I destroyed the Gd perm! Next time around got Na which I don't know. I had several pll problems this round... I guess that's normal when learning new algs. I learned Gc and Gd and did some ao12s. For these I started the timer then repeated the algorithm 4 times (back to solved) before stopping the timer.

Gd average of 12: Sun 19:97, 17.77, Mon 16.89, Tue 15.26, 15.78, Wed 15.05
Gc average of 12: Sun 22:52, 20.62, Mon 19.84, Tue 15.89, 16.74, Wed 15.93

I realized I already knew the 'Aa' permutation but was using it incorrectly so I really added 3 PLLs this week. That's great except with all the Gc and Gd practice, my hands forgot how to do OLL headlights so I had to relearn that, and my F2L times went up significantly. After a a lot of practice my times are about back to where they were.

Solve average of 12:
Wed: 55.72, 52.20, 53.25,
Thu 52.18, 53.12,
Fri: DNF (48.09), 48.41, 51.57, 50.59, 57.91
Sat: 47.10, 48.51, 46.28, 55.64, 49.09, 46.50, 46.91, 44.68

Saturday average of 100:
stats: (hide)
number of times: 99/100
best time: 0.00
worst time: 1:32.09

current avg5: 56.28 (σ = 7.86)

current avg12: 47.54 (σ = 8.92)

current avg100: 49.14 (σ = 9.60)
best avg100: 49.14 (σ = 9.60)

session avg: 49.14 (σ = 9.60)
session mean: 48.64

Also Friday night I started working on making the cross blind. I got 6 completely correct, 1 with three out of four edges correct, and 2 with two out of four edges correct.

An average is calculated by adding up your times then dividing by the number of solves, excluding your fastest and slowest solves.

Over my average of 100 today, I got several times in the 30s, but I also got several solves that took over a minute. So my average was around 49 seconds. This is because I am inconsistent with my cross and f2l, and I don't know all the PLLs so although some solves are (relatively) fast, other solves are sloooow and my average suffers.

Large standard deviation values indicate less consistent times. If they are small, then you are more consistent. (Standard deviation values follow the lower case sigma character, σ.) Mine have always been pretty large because of my inconsistency.

Do you guys mind if I join this thread with Roux method even though I'm in the sub-20 thread with Fridrich already?

The catch: Your times will not be listed in the results for each round, as this would make things cluttered for those still striving for the Sub-30 milestone, as well as making things more difficult for me.

Ooops! Sorry I had a round in for 25 but, I was too late for it, turns out. Didn't realize round 26 scrambles were up, so I re-did it. Here's my times... Just slightly better than (virtual) round 25 for me. Nothing in the 50's (phew!) kind of a rarity for me, sooo... Slightly going down. Every once in a while I'm ripping out something in the low 30's -- it's when my f2l is going exceptionally smooth and I don't get a bad (for me) case in my PLL. I think it may be time to learn full PLL, cause Z-Perm in 2-look PLL is killing me (takes me 7 seconds, eighg, all that were over 42 in that round had Z-perm for me)

Yeah, I just wasn't sure since I never actually participated in/graduated from this thread. Looks like I'll be doing it, though.
