Race to Sub-30 and Race to Sub 25

Moving on to the next race! :)

Round 142

Race to Sub-25
Method: ZZ

Ao12: 27.34
26.28, (23.44), 25.11, 30.14, 26.92, 28.97, 24.57, (31.54), 28.25, 24.23, 29.88, 29.02

It happened twice that I messed up edge orientation, had to rotate cube during F2L and fix edge orientation later. Fortunately I still know my CPEOLL to do that efficiently and both those solves were still sub-30. Hope it's not considered cheating to resort to methods other than the one I'm supposed to use. :rolleyes:
 
Round: 142
Race to Sub: 25
Cube: MoYu Mini WeiLong
Method: OH ZZ
Average: 24.28

1. 20.94
2. (20.90)
3. 26.25
4. 29.29 Ug, H-perms suck OH
5. 23.28
6. 24.31
7. 24.09 Ug, H-perms suck OH
8. (31.32) Ug, H-perms suck OH
9. 28.83 Acidentally did green front, totally threw me off- didn't realize i had until after first block
10. 23.05
11. 21.12
12. 21.49

So. I did a couple ao100s over the week(s) I missed, and got a sub-25 pb (which was recently improved to sub-24 [23.99]).
I think I can do this.

GenTheThief graduates this week with ZZ OH in the race to sub 25
Er, I didn't quite graduate. On week 140 I got a 25.80.
Average: 25.80

1. 24.66
2. 25.13
3. 31.23
4. 28.14
5. 28.85 got caught up on COLL recognition, learning L set
6. (18.96)
7. 23.87
8. 28.86

It was close though.
 
Round: 143
Race to Sub: 25

10. (18.63)
11. 23.77
12. (31.23)

Ohh, I'm finally averaging sub-25. Of 30 solves I did as warm up, 8 of them were 24s and 6 of them were 23s. Only 8 were 25+ and the other 8 were 23-.
Hopefully next round will be sub-23 [EDIT:I meant sub-24, but sub-23 would be cool too].
That would be cool.

Always nice to have multiple sub-20 solves in an OH average. Good luck!
 
Hey, this is my second time on the forum and I didn't know if I was sub-25 or not yet, but apparently I am

Round 144 - Race to Sub 30 (full CN)
Method CFOP

What the heck, I'm gonna jump in. This is really more CN solves than I've ever done. I am doing non-white or yellow, because those are both way better for me. Solve 6 is at the end, I don't know how I somehow skipped it originally.

Round: 144
Race to Sub: 25
Cube: MoYu Mini WeiLong
Method: OH ZZ
Average: 23.21

1. 21.26
2. 23.06
3. (17.06)
4. 25.83
5. 20.25
6. 26.07 Messed up Line, wrong edge
7. (30.69) Horribly messed up EO, but got a good skip in F2L; they didn't even-out the solve though
8. 25.36
9. 18.67
10. 24.00
11. 23.29
12. 24.23 Tried something fancy during EO. Didn't turn out well.

Cool. Sub-24. Would have needed a 22.12 or lower to clear 23. Maybe if I hadn't tried fancy EO tricks...
Good Bye All!
@Brian Kremer , thanks for all you've done on this thread and the previous sub-30 thread. I appreciate all the time and effort you put into your work here. I'm glad I was able to graduate before you left.
