Time List:
18.04[white], 19.43[yellow], 20.81[green], (16.50[white]), 20.98[blue], 17.70[yellow], (22.09[red]), 18.29[white], 19.09[white], 17.12[white], 19.56[blue], 20.14[green]

Changed cube midway through the average and went back to the Yuexiao. Many good white & yellow crosses that I didn't want to pass on, so less than half of the solves on other colours... which saved the average 'cos my performance on other colours leaves much to be desired currently.
 
i want to take but im adding a twist for myself.
If i dont complete this or get a sub 20 average in the comp im going to on the 1st and 2nd of October i will quit cubing forever :D

Quitting isn't how you push past boundaries. Determination is!

I cannot agree more. I would change:
- "If i dont complete this or get a sub 20 average in the comp im going to on the 1st and 2nd of October i will quit cubing forever "
for this:
- "If i dont complete this or get a sub 20 average in the comp im going to on the 1st and 2nd of October i will give my little brother 20 bucks, practice more and succeed next time" :)

Can't be upset with this one! My cross planning and execution has always been my nemesis. I've seen improvement lately. Hopefully I can keep up the progress
 
Round 511
CFOP Full CN

Same boat as last week, but I think that's a good thing. The first 5 solves felt great and then I started thinking about how great they felt and lost my focus. Although, I guess that's half of what this is about, right? Learning how to focus. Have a nice weekend everyone!

No warm up, just hammered it out to get the next round up. Lucky 16.x at the end saved the average. Oh well, hopefully I can get more practice in this week.

So. I've been lazy and didn't start learning ZZ-CT. But, I have a comp soon and as soon as that is over I can start.
Ohwell. OH time. Probably will drop out again when I actually start learning ZZ-CT.

Decent average. I'm not sure how long it will be before I can actually get sub-20 ao12s, as I have only 1 sub-20 ao5.
Guess I'll be here for a while. ZZ-CT may solve that though...

Round 512

According to my timer, my global average is still 20.42. Though if this race is any indication it seems that when I really focus I can consistently pull down sub 20 averages. I guess the trick is to always have that level of focus. I sometimes slip into casual auto pilot solving mode when I'm timing lots of solves. I have to treat every solve like it's part of the Race to Sub 20 :P

Next round will be up in a few hours.

Old Round 512 (should be 513 now right?)

I went ahead and did the scrambles even though I was late. I didn't get under 20 so it doesn't matter. I messed up PLL on 3 and kept trying to see how to correct it and finally did. :)
