"NEW" Race to Sub-30!

I occasionally mix adjacent edges. How do you fix that?
I'd just do it intuitively since I'm not good at learning algs and I don't want to have to think too much and lose track of where I am! If the edges are correctly flipped but swapped in F and R then something like (M' U' M) d' (M' U M) d (M' U M) -- possibly wrong!

I'm pretty happy with this week, my times were a hell of a lot more accurate (except for the 38).

12. 45.77

This was really frustrating. Everytime I was on a good (sub-35ish finish) I got the R(a) perm, which takes me about 10-15 seconds to do. After my sub-40 average at the Twente Open this weekend, I was confident I could do it here too. Oh well, at least I must be one of the few people who has a better official PB and unofficial.

Number 6 had the potential of sub 20 but I messed up a J-perm with like 17 seconds on the clock starting it. Easily the most annoying average of 12 I've done in ages. Could have been sub-25, but "could" doesn't cut it. Oh yeah, I havent been here in ages due to mountains of Uni work, although I have cubed a bit. Got a couple sub-20 times but frustratingly inconsistent still.
