If I suceed I will officially be the fastest female cuber in the world :eek:
I better not mess up and get DNF's again >_<

update: fail! :(
my best average was 15.17 in the finals, and the best single was 14.08, also in the finals. Still nice times, but I could have done better :/
I also had 2 DNFs XD, 1 in the first round and the other in the second round. I had a horrible average in the second round since I just came back form a concert band performance (I missed about 5 hours of the competition), and so I wasn't warmed up at all :P

new goals:
same stuff, new deadline
-get a sub-12.94 single at Motor City Open
-get a sub-14.69 average at Motor City Open
-no 3x3x3 speed DNF's at Motor City Open! no excuses :p

Currently: ~60 average Petrus, 2 look PLL, 1 look OLL (there's only the edges up cases if you're using Petrus, which makes only 7 cases I think, lol)

Goals:

Learn all PLLs (don't really have a deadline, will do in spare time) [done]
Sub 50 (by March) [done]
Sub 40 (by June) [almost there]

I would have more goals, but I'm not really that committed. :o

I posted this about 5 weeks ago. At that time I figured I'd never be able to reach those goals... but I'm averaging in the low 40s (I don't do that many averages) now with a PB of 36. I don't use Petrus any more though.

My new goal is sub 30 by August.

No more alg learning, I figure learning all of the OLLs won't drop my time by much and I'm not fast enough to where it actually even matters.

[...]1. Learn full PLL by March 10 by resolving to learn at least 1 PLL algorithm a day.[...]

UPDATE: I have learned all but one PLL (N-perm :p ). Now, I have to work on split-second recognition and speedy execution for all the PLLs. I might also consider learning OH equivalents. Meanwhile, I will learn at least 1 OLL a day and continue practicing F2L.

I haven't taken an average yet, but I got my first sub-20 single (18.xx). It doesn't say much other than I might hit sub-20 soon.

Everything is going quite smoothly. :)

Hm...
A quick update on how I'm doing.
As for Square-1, I'm nowhere near sub-1 averages, I have 3 days left. I think I'll extend that deadline a little, I haven't been working on it much.

But I have a new goal, as several people know. I want to win The Race to Sub-2. Many people have told me I would already win, but I am extremely inconsistent. So, new goals are.

Goals
Get sub 20 averages and learn OLLs
Get sub 1 averages on Square-1
Win the Race to Sub-2

Deadlines
December 2, 2009
April 2, 2009
Before anyone else does

AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH! It could have easily been a sub-25 if I didn't get such a terrible time in the last solve.

I'm about to attempt an average of 10 for more accurate results.

I used another cube, and it locked up like heck. I need to practice F2L and PLL execution (that DNF was caused by a ruined G-perm).

Yay! I got my first sub-20 average. I don't average sub-20 consistently, but I'm getting closer.
