Round 107

Average: 25.99

28.31, 25.63, 28.34, 23.78, (22.06), 25.83, (31.70), 26.06, 25.17, 27.05, 23.78

Well following taking some sound advise from the community following posting an Ao12 video in the video section this weekend. This average I went for turnspeed above all else on my F2L. I have gotten very slow trying to perfect lookahead when in reality I can get nearly the same lookahead turning much faster. My lowest average in the thread to date. In fact it could have been so much faster. I have 3 n-perms, 5!! e-perms, neither of which are at all fast for me, in addition to quite a few lengthy OLLs. Going to me optimising all my F2L cases for all 4 slots next.

number of times: 11/11
best time: 22.06
worst time: 31.70

current avg5: 26.09 (σ = 0.77)
best avg5: 25.08 (σ = 0.92)

session avg: 25.99 (σ = 1.59)
session mean: 26.16

For some reason, those last few days I have been unable to do anything "good" when it comes to cubing. This is actually not too bad compared to the times I seem to get lately :/ (bouhou)

Had some pretty bad solves in there, but pretty decent average for me on the sim.

Several really bad lockups on G perms (several seconds long!) and a few big mistakes killed me. This could have been a really good average - my lookahead was fantastic throughout.

How would joining for a sim work on this? The sims I use can't do custom scrambles, would you accept just using whatever they give?

I hadn't thought about that; Xishem just submitted a result and it's hard work for me to try to validate results, so I generally just accept what I'm told. Xishem, did you enter in my scrambles, or just use whatever you had? It would seem in the proper spirit for us to require that the same scrambles be used no matter what the event, so perhaps I shouldn't accept simulator results if they're not using the official scrambles.

And Tall5001, I decided to just accept your round 107 times and declare you graduated; if you really don't want that, I can take them back out, but it seems to me that you're good enough to qualify anyway, so I'd prefer to call you graduated.
