Me, @Bingus Ringus McDingus and @HK-Speedcube are racing to a sub-16 ao12 for 3x3. We created this race in Bingus's progression thread, but we won't post updates there because that is about his progress, not ours. Bingus is currently in first place, with the best single and ao12. I am in second with a 20.78 ao12, and hk is third with a 27.69 ao12. I won't be practicing much since I'm on vacation, but will post try to do an ao12 daily.

Let's only post PB's or anything close to a PB, so that we don't make this 20 pages long or something XD

EDIT: @Bingus cuber and @jawklqnn have joined. Bingus cuber averages about 20 seconds, and will make this pretty confusing when it comes to refering to bingus ringus mcdingus, who we will now refer to as ringus or Orion (if that's fine with him). Jawklqnn averages19 seconds, with a PB ao5 of 16.7

EDIT2: @AhsanDaCuber125 has also joined! This means that we now have 6 competitors racing for a sub-16 ao12 (and sub-20 first for me, orion, HK, and Ahsan. We might want to keep track of who does that first). If anyone is posting scrams, I've created something you can copy for the start of the message.

EDIT3: @Isabellikesmaths has also joined! We now have 7 competitors racing to sub-16.

EDIT4: @Fred has also joined! He averages about 25 second, so he'll be joining a few of us trying to get to sub-20 first.

No I won’t race with you then, I want a race with someone that trusts me.
It's not just for trust (although that was the original reason why I said that). We can critique each other solves and see where our weaknesses are so that we can keep pushing each other.
I have to admit sometimes I'm like "this is a bad solve" and delete it, so I want to work on that and build up trust in myself again. So ig trust in each other and ourselves.

And yeah trust as well. I have to admit sometimes I'm like "this is a bad solve" and delete it, so I want to work on that and build up trust in myself again.
Ok you can make a thread, btw I’m not very good on cam.

How often will these scrams be? Daily? (If so, good idea, I need a little motivation)
