3x3: sub-13 and sub 10 average.
3x3 OH: sub-40
4x4: Sub 1
Pyraminx: Learn L4E and sub-8
That was last year.
In 3x3 I am one second off; im almost sub 14 and have a sub 11 ao5.
3x3 OH: I am sub 28 in OH, idk why I thought I couldn't get faster than sub 40
4x4: Sub 1:05, but I haven't tried to improve much, should work on that.
Pyra: Actually quite accurate, I am around sub 8 but very inconsistent

GOALS FOR 2020:
Main Goal: 3x3: Sub-10 Ao100
3x3: sub-11
2x2: Learn CLL and Sub-3.5
4x4: Sub-55
3x3 OH: Sub-20
3x3 WF: Keep practicing, and get sub 1:20.
Pyra: Sub-6
Square-1: Sub-17
Megaminx: Sub-1:10

Learn to properly turn with OH

Learn to solve Square-1 consistently

Learn to properly fingertrick SH and HS on Skewb

Improve

Average sub-15 seconds on 3x3

Sub 4 on 2x2, maybe 3

Practice Megaminx so I'm not completely awful

Sub 5ish for Pyraminx

Globally sub-45 on OH(for comp cutoffs)

Other

Go to my first comp, hopefully more

in your walls :3
Know at least 3 out of the 7 ZBLL sets and be comfortable with all of those algs/cases.
Making an edit: I also want to get good at clock with the new Angstrom Temporus. Sub-8 would be super cool.

Yeah, I'm editing this again—by the end of 2020 I want to know at least 4 of the 7 ZBLL sets and be comfy with all of the cases/algs. I also want to finish the ZBLL trainer I'm making soon so I can release it to the public :)
I hope the Temporus comes back in stock soon so I can start using it to practice clock...

Start cubing (3x3) for 3 months, my goal is to get a sub-20 ao12. My current ao12 is 32 and pb is 19. I thought of learning winter variation but I think I should work on the basics first

become color neutral on 3x3, become sub 8 on 3x3, become sub 30 on 4x4, become sub 1:00 on 5x5, become sub 2:00 for 6x6, become sub 3:10 for 7x7, learn full CLL and EG-1 (maybe EG-2.) Learn how to solve a 3x3 blindfolded with M2 and average sub 1:30. Might be hard goals but if this quarantine continues until summer I'll literally have nothing else to do. Oh, and I would like to take back my state records for 3x3 average and 6x6 single whenever comps will start running again.

Update time!


Learn

Learn full CFCE, as well as some add-ons - Switched to CFOP, then to ZZ, but I'm about 4 algs away from full PLL, so I'd say close

Transfer CLL algs from 3x3 over to 2x2, maybe learn some better ones - Again, I switched away from CFCE, but I did learn Ortega so I'll count it

Learn 3BLD - I have, although my success rate is pretty low

Learn Yau for 4x4 - I have, and although I haven't been updating much, I am close to my previous average

Learn Intuitive L4E for Pyraminx - Yup, and although I haven't practiced lately, I do enjoy it

Learn to properly turn with OH - Definitely, OH is now one of my favorite events

Learn to solve Square-1 consistently - No, I've learned to solve it but need to memo parity

Learn to properly fingertrick SH and HS on Skewb - No

Improve

Average sub-15 seconds on 3x3 - After switching I got a lot slower, but I'm at around 20 right now.

Sub 4 on 2x2, maybe 3 - Currently sub-5, nearing sub-4.

Practice Megaminx so I'm not completely awful - Barely sub-3, cutoffs at comps are usually around 2:30 so I'm not that good

Sub 5ish for Pyraminx - I can't remember, I'm sub-6 I think

Globally sub-45 on OH(for comp cutoffs) - As I said, it's one of my favorite events now. Averaging sub-30 globally

Other

Go to my first comp, hopefully more - Gone to one right now, going to SE champs soon

Grow my collection a lot - My collection is around 20, so I think quite bigger than before.

Sorry for double post


(V5) (I wonder if I'll hit V10 before next year)

I've already accomplished so many goals this year, but my list is still decent sized. I think that I can defiantly accomplish all of these by the end of the year.

Learn

Learn full PLL and start on some ZBLL

Learn to consistently plan EOCross in inspection on 3x3

Learn to consistently predict OLL in inspection on 2x2

Learn to solve Square-1 consistently

Learn to properly fingertrick SH and HS on Skewb

Improve

Sub-15 on 3x3 (~20 currently)

Sub-4 on 2x2 (~4.5 currently)

Sub-20 for OH (Sub-30 currently)

Sub 5ish for Pyraminx - (Sub-6.5 currently)

Sub-2:30 on Megaminx (Sub-3:00 currently)

Improve consistency for 3BLD, sub-5:00 (Very inconsistent right now, dunno average)

Get decent at 5x5 (Sub-4:00 currently)

Other

Raise my competition count to 5+ (1 currently)

Ok, I only do 3x3 and I also like clock, so here are my goals:
3x3:
Sub-15 ao100 (low 21 ao100 right now)
Finish PLL and learn COLL and a few WVs
Consistently plan EOLine + Square in inspection
Get an official sub-20 average
Clock:
Sub-15 at at least, sub-12 would be nice (Right now sub-25 average because I never practice)
One look cross, and learn no-flip
4x4:
Learn 4z4, sub-2:00 average? (never practice so I have no idea what I'd have now)
