[Shaky Hands]

@Cobradude555 - I calculate your Ao12 as 35.26 as your best time (20.15) and worst time (DNF) do not contribute towards the average for cubing purposes.

Just missed on this one but would say this is a very good avg for me at the moment. Been a while (round 165) but back into getting faster. Just starting to get ao12's below 25s during practice.
Have finally finished learning full OLL and had my first comp (video here), unfortunately got nervous and made to many errors, so didn't get an official sub 30 avg like I should have been able to.

Welcome back. First comp nightmares happened to a lot of us. Think of it as setting an easy target to beat next time.
