*Day One Morning Times*

Clock: 13.29 Avg - 14.16, 10.96, (14.95), (10.07), 14.75

Pyraminx: 5.55 Avg - 5.88, 5.19, DNF(5.79), 5.58, (4.74)

Skewb: 5.93 Avg - 5.92, 6.81, (4.89), (7.22), 5.06

Square-1: 20.37 Avg - (32.77), 21.93, 20.49, 18.70, (11.97)

3x3 WF: 1:09.40 Avg - (54.17, 1:13.27, (1:15.50), 1:14.99, 59.96

Overall decent except for square-1, im upset by those times (except for the 11 ;-)) cant wait for the next scrambles. I recorded all my solves in case

It amazes me how strange some of the time limits are for US Nationals this year. I guess it makes sense that feet is really tough, since the organizers for US Nationals traditionally hate the event. But why a 10 minute time limit for OH, but only a 1 minute time limit for 3x3x3?

Anyway, it's going to be tight for me to make the time limit on feet - I guess I'd better practice first!

(Edit: of course, I really shouldn't complain - I don't actually qualify for any of the events that I would have trouble making the time limit on anyway.)

I’m not sure why, maybe they really like OH?

It’s perfectly fine to do a little practice, just post when you are ready

3. DNS

I know the time limit was 25:00.00, but I only had time for 1 attempt. So I went a little too safe, but it was a success. So, I put it here as it was said that you could go over, I just wasn't sure if this was too much over.

4 BLD:

1. 7:43.83 (overall pb by almost 2 minutes! 4:5x memo)
2. DNF(4:57.23) (Stopped during memo because couldn't figure something out during wings and it was taking forever)
3. DNF(7:10.27)(stopped during exec because I couldn't remember the last centers targets and it was gonna probably be a dnf and worse than my first attempt anyway, 5:26 memo)

7x7:

mean of 3: 3:09.14

1. 2:56.67
2. 3:17.95
3. 3:12.79

Nice first solve, not so good second 2(bad centers on both of them).

Day 1 Morning Results

7x7: 9:30.72, DNS, DNS = DNF (core stripped lmao)

sq1: (21.18), 17.02, 19.56, 20.17, (12.89) = 18.92 avg (last solve was stoopid)

clock: 23.84, 23.56, 28.83, (DNF), (18.73) = 25.41 avg

skewb: 6.13, 5.92, 5.91, (7.84), (5.62) = 5.99 avg

pyra: (4.70), 4.32, 4.39, 3.49, (2.80) = 4.07 avg (pretty garbage scrambles for the first 3)

feet: 1:15.29, 1:10.09, (1:21.01), 1:15.59, (1:09.15) = 1:13.66 avg

pretty bad overall

A lot of the weird time limits/cutoffs are there because people already had to qualify for these events, so the time limits are there in case people do not actually reflect the speeds on their WCA profile.

Yes, I suppose that makes sense. But I still don't understand why OH has a 10 minute time limit - it seems wildly different from the others - almost like it's a typo.

To all being Pinged, can you please PM me with the amount of cubes you would like to attempt in MBLD? Thank you!

E: You can decide on competition day if you wish, i would like to know if you guys are attempting 50 plus.

Probably like 27? Might go to 30ish depending on how I feel but definitely not 50+

Hey, few quick questions.

1. Would you mind adding in your Average of 5 statistic after your times?

2. Did you accidentally compete in Clock? You didn't sign up for it and Ill still count your results.
