Uuuuungh. My friends thought it would be funny to put a raisin in my ultimate lubix guhong while I wasn't looking. Any tips on getting raisin guts out of a core without get the lubix out? I guess I'll have to do this round with my locky AlphaV

The if it wasn't for the two 27.xx times my worst time would be 22.34 and maybe sub 20! Oh well...
Maybe a toothpick to take the raisin out of the core?

I'm really happy with this. It's one of few averages I've ever had with all 12 sub 20.
The 13.78 was a PLL skip but the rest were full step.
It's my pb avg of 12 (I'm pretty sure, I don't keep track) and I knocked .3 off my pb avg of 5 (17.37).

cube-o-holic is just one round from graduating; good luck next round!
Alumni (these people have already achieved sub-20 three times with no over 20 results in between, and therefore are considered to have graduated):

Thanks. Your advice was really helpful. I did what you said, and sped up my TPS. I try to go full speed starting at the Last Pair, and through the LL. Instead of the constant slowness I had before.
Basically went from a 10 sec LL to about 5-6.
