Race to sub-25 (a.k.a. soft transistion between 30 and 20)

I don't LOL much, but I did the first time I saw your new sig, like it is some kind of penalty.

Well I can only see two lines of signatures on my iPod , so I can't see uvafan's OH PB's.

Round 10 (OH)
Average: 24.66
25.91, 24.71, 23.79, 25.69, (19.85), 24.46, 23.66, 23.79, 22.79, (26.19), 25.70, 26.08

Whew... was afraid I wasn't going to make it at the end. Another sub-20 in this average makes me happy.
 
Round 10
Average 24.50

Couple of sloppy solves. Screwed up a few OLLs towards the end as my average moved up from 23 to 24 and towards 25!

Loads of progress recently, thanks to slow solving. Had a PB single a few solves after this Ao12 - 16.88 non-lucky. My NL PB is now faster than my lucky one! Haven't had a LL skip of any kind on a sub-20 solve for weeks. If I get a good F2L and a skip I reckon I could be on for a 15 now!

#9 should've been sub-20, seem to remember it was a really nice cross, but screwed up OLL. Nice to have a counting 20.xx, but still no sub-20s in this race - something to aim for next week!

Round 12
OH
26.38, 26.74, 27.70, 23.52, 25.62, 23.59, 25.28, 33.41, 29.74, 22.25, (35.18), (20.39) = 26.42

That counting 33.42 ruined the average, but still pretty good.
 
Round 12

Average 24.08 (graduated, wahoo!)
22.76, 27.31,24.67, 22.20, 21.29, 25.49, 29.03, 24.56, 22.22, 24.68, 25.07, 21.88

Using new 55mm Zhanchi. Needs tensioning, it's way too loose. No sup-30's, but no sub-20's either. I think I'm getting slower! Almost all of the PLLs were G's, 2 V's (#2 and #7, my 2 slowest - both locked up BADLY). Lots of drilling required.

Graduating is bitter-sweet, as I'm now terrified of the race to 20, because I have a LONG way to go. I did this race as the first part of an Ao100, and the Ao100 was 24.15, so I guess 24.08 is a pretty average Ao12 for me.

I guess I'm off to work on my lookahead, BLD cross, PLL drills, etc., etc., etc...

Good luck all! :-D
 
Round 12 ZZ
Average: 25.40

27.73, 24.57, 24.20, 28.48, (28.96), 24.48, 24.96, 23.01, 25.75, (21.76), 21.92, 28.93

I haven't done any ZZ solves the last month (or maybe even two), but it seems like I have somehow improved anyway.
