Dixon Fall 2016 (Competition)

Sub 3 != good

Blake is pretty much 100% faster than you. Just quit it with the precomp anticipation. Go to comps to have fun, stop worrying about if you're going to podium.
"Sub 3 != good" -Kennan
I consider 300th best in the world to be reasonably good. Maybe that's just me.
I would like to podium, but I don't actually care that much, you're assuming because I'm talking about it, I will be upset if I don't podium, which just isn't true. I'm just excited about it because it's a good chance to podium for the first time (not counting randomly being 3rd out of 4 in 7x7)

Also, just looking at his WCA profile he's like 0.2 seconds slower than me. He's probably a bit faster than me at home, but "100% faster than me" is an overstatement. If you want to dispute the exact chance that he beats me, then am I the one who cares too much?
 
hey I updated the JTCSheet thing lookie
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...7MEZzCfDVnpbWBxzei3lKaPSuU/edit#gid=398112305

obviously this can be very volatile, especially the 2x2 one, but if you're too lazy to look at the link then here:

3x3:
1: Blake Thompson, 9.40
2: David Nguyen, 10.30
3: John Brechon, 10.98

2x2:
1: Brian Johnson, 2.83
2: Blake Thompson, 3.25
3: Walker Welch, 3.48

3x3 one looks reasonable, 2x2 one is complete BS

side note: I'm 9th and 6th in 2x2 and 3x3 respectively. 9-6=3, and 3x3=9. 9x6 is the number of stickers on a 3x3 rubik's cube. When did Rubik invent the cube? 1974. In binary, that's 11110110110. That's 3 zeros. Do you guys honestly think this is all a coincidence?

Edit:
I made a PICKEMZZZZ

btw in case you didn't know this idea comes from here: https://www.speedsolving.com/forum/...th-prizes-blake-thompson-wins-season-2.56588/
