Comment:
This really hit me hard.. I thought this would be a walk in the park since i usually average lower than 25.. I guess its the pressure to really success doing it! Wellwell.. ;D

Edit:
The ao12 i did right after ended up at 24.2 with different scrambles of course.

Last scrambles are the same, I scrambled last solve twice to get a unique scramble.

Thanks for pointing this out. Will update for those that has not competed yet this week. Also, well done.

Round 190
Race to sub-25
CFOP
Weilong GTS2

Ao12 = 26.266. Yep… totally stuck here. Got to be honest, I held ZERO hope that I would even be a 25.xxx, let alone a sub-25. I’m losing motivation to keep trying in this competition. I’m still enjoying solving, but need to figure out how to get my look-ahead improved. I was pretty stoked about that 18.17 PB, but at the same time I knew it was a fluke.

26.288, 24.653, 28.306, 23.839,
(18.172)*, 27.615, [28.649], 27.982,

Ao12= 33.67

Ugh... I did so bad today. Very embarrassing of myself. I usually get a 30 sec average. Probably (and hopefully) was just a bad 3x3 day for me.

 

[Shaky Hands]

Sorry I thought I posted new scrambles before I went on vacation.

I will post new scrambles and previous results on Saturday or Sunday.

Thanks.

How did you calculate 25.96 as an Ao12?

 

[virginia]

I meant 24.96 (typo) but I'll do it again. Well I did it on the calculator and it said 24.76... either way it doesn't really matter they're both sub 25

 

[Shaky Hands]

@virginia, if you're getting 24.76 then that suggests you're taking a Mean of 12 rather than an Ao12. If you remove your best and worst time you'll get 24.70, which is how an Average of 12 is calculated in cubing terms.

 

[virginia]

Oh ok thanks I had it backwards
