At home. Where you should be.
This is kind of like the 2018 WR prediction thread, but instead, you are predicting your PBs.

Ill go first, but Im only predicting single and ao5, Im not about to do mo3, ao12, ao50, and ao100 as well: (single, ao5, global average)

2x2: 0.753, 1.591, 2.5-2.9 (if I bother to learn CLL, otherwise low 3)
3x3: 6.316, 8.053, 9.5
4x4: 31.546, 36.541, 40
5x5: 1:09.879, 1:23.451, 1:29
6x6: 2:26.540, 2:58.615, 3:10
7x7: 4:34.841, 4:39.998, 4:50
Square-one: 9.982, 14.378, 17-18
Pyraminx: same (1.105), 2.986, 4.3

Pretty optimistic in 6 and 7, I am hoping to get into those this year. Also, if you want to know my current PBs, check out my spreadsheet.

Nothing. It just looks like you're getting slower as you solve more.
Of course your best average of 5 would be better than your best average of 12 (unless something very weird happens) because it's easier to get lucky for 5 solves than for 12, so you're statistically more likely to get an average of 5 of a specific time than an ao12 of a specific time, if said specific time deviates significantly from your average.

The red curve would represent the distribution of ao5s, whereas the orange curve would represent the distribution of ao12s.
Specific values aren't at all to scale.

I'm hoping to be at least sub 12. I kinda want to be sub 10 by the end of the year, but that seems a pretty big goal. I'm close to sub 14 after 9 months of serious cubing though, so perhaps I can achieve sub 10.

I'll probably break my single once or twice, but doubt it'll be sub 7.
