FMC:

Scramble: B2 L2 F D F D2 B2 L2 B2 R2 F2 U2 B R2 F' D' F2 L2 U R2 D' F2 U L2 U'

2x2x2: F' R' D2 R U F' D2 (7)
2x2x3: L' B2 R B L (5)
F2L: U' R' U' R2 U R U R' U R U' R' U' R2 (14)
OLL: U2 R2 F R F' U2 M' U R U' R' (12)
=38 moves

Any tips?

lol, i did a linear FMC on that scramble and got a completely different 38 moves solution. anyway, I continued with the 2x2x2 block that you formed and came up with the following continuation:

2x2x3: L' B' L
F2L: U2 R' B' R' B R2 (F R' F')
OLL: (F R F) D' F' D R' F'
PLL: R' U2 B2 U' F' U B2 U' F U'
= 32 moves (after cancellations)
I got this solution within 2 minutes. I haven't looked for insertions, so sub 30 should be easy.

New lucky PB! First sub-20 time ever!!!! 17.65 with a Pll skip! I'm so happy, I've gotten close in the last couple days, and I finally did it!

Nice! I remember my first sub-20. I was like: ...wut... lol

I read this and decided that I really wanted my first sub20, so I did an avg5

25.41, 22.34, (19.58), 22.88, (25.62) = 23.54

It was a PLL skip, but I'm still excited =) and its my pb avg5 by .3 seconds. lol.

Hopefully sub 20 by the end of the week, because I'm going to to an AO100 everyday this week and maby the next

Grrr... I wish I could be on the computer this much. And btw, congrats, your a12 is better than my pb a12. But my a5 wins "19.12 (σ = 0.33)"
Much more consistent in yours though, so yours is better.
Edit: I could probably get 21ish in an a100, if I could do one (only on computer 40 mins max a day) Next time my parents are out I'll try to beat every stat in this

 

[Zane_C]

Thanks ZB, after sub 20 I will sort of ditch 2 hand speed and continue on with my OH, TuRBo and commutators... yes that's right, out of all the people, I'm using commutators, only for some of the corners though.

Also, the 16.21 is a new Non lucky pb, which blew my lucky pb of 17.65 I got yesterday out of the water, and is my second ever sub 20 time. Scramble was F' B2 U2 B D B' L2 B' F2 U R B2 D2 R' L U L2 D B' R U2 R' L' F' B2

My look ahead for that solve was perfect, with a U perm to finish it off.

The 31.80 time was hilarious because I messed up the cross and didn't realize it till two CE pairs were already inserted.
