Ok time to post goals I suppose:

3bld: just beat Olli at single. Get a decent (sub50) mo3 (possibly NR mean if lucky)
4bld: again beat Olli and possibly improve NR a bit.
5bld: get a sub12 success (well at least sub13)
Mbld: NR. Preferably 15+ points.
3x3: I don't care that much but sub15 avg would be nice.
Others: I don't care.

Wut?

Average NR is 3.93 and you already posted 4.02 avg100 in accomplishment thread iirc?

So sounds totally reachable with good scrambles/solves. Am I wrong? I'm not good at Pyra so I don't know but 0.1s doesn't sound that impossible to me...

tl:dr GOGOGO NR!

I laughed a lot when I saw this I don't know why

Highlighted the problem. I'm really bad in pressured situations so I do better when I don't care (as seen last comp). Also the 3.93 scrambles were way easier than average

You can do it with only slightly easier than average scrambles . Just stop getting nervous (I know not that easy)...

BTW it says in the schedule page that I should register beforehand for head-to-head. Where/how is this done? Do I email Ronxu or what

4:15.07 4bld NR!

Another 5.0x skewb average with a bj counting 5 that should've been a 3.

day 1 recap:

4x4: NR avg round 1, could've been way better (got +2 on a counting solve), NR avg round 2 (could've been sub40)
5x5: Happy
Skewb: lol
Pyra: Nate did well r1, I sub4'd in finals, but failed to do one turn in the last solve (took around .7 seconds to do it) and missed NR

 

[Username]

Leaving for day2! Hoping for that 3x3 NR average

Nathaniel got sub-WR DNF on the first clock scramble. Knowing it was going to be easy, I completely blew it.
