Racing to sub-20

12th Batch:

28.53, (21.91), 31.25, 23.36, 27.40, (31.83), 31.52, 29.61, 24.15, 23.15, 27.31, 24.83 = 27.11 avg.

Well, not a great average, but considering I haven't practiced all week, it's o.k.
 
First time joining in, 12th batch

number of times: 12/12
best time: 20.30
worst time: 29.49

23.81, (20.30), 22.49, 23.80, 28.45, 21.25, 24.59, 26.23, 28.08, (29.49), 23.42, 29.13

best avg5: 22.51 (σ = 1.04)

session avg: 25.13 (σ = 2.56)

I am very happy with the beginning... and I believe this messed up the later solves. Also, I still recog G-perms poorly, and got 5 of em. New PB avg5 thou =) and probably avg12 as well

Ok, I got the results and new scrambles, but I wanted to ask you guys something (EVERYONE, not just participants, thanks). I see that many of you are not motivated (we have 59 or 60 participants, but only 15~20 participate). I wanted to ask YOU guys how I could make this much more fun. Give me ideas on ANYTHING. I was thinking about some prizes for the most improved and stuff, but I'm broke, so that's it. So... could any of you please give me some ideas???

Oh, by the way, please submit your average, not just your times :)

If only popbuying sponsered us..
 
Woot - I tied for 9th! (despite the bad times)

I think that as often as we're doing these, 15-20 is actually pretty decent participation. I'm really enjoying it myself as is! Thanks so much for running this - I really appreciate it. I'm willing to pick it up as best I can if you decide it's too much trouble for you to keep it going. The only problem is that if I pick it up, I can't keep editing the first post. Luckily, I could edit the second post (since I was the first person to respond to the initial post), but not the first one. I suppose we could do something like you could edit the first post to simply say to check the second post, and then I could do everything there. Anyway, I just thought I'd offer to help if you need the help.


Edit: Here are my results for the 13th set of scrambles:
27.33, 24.00, 24.77, 26.38, (21.19), 21.84, 25.61, 22.90, 21.38, (31.86), 28.36, 23.40 = 24.60

So depressing. I was doing really well earlier today, but these were awful. Not a single solve under 21, and several disasters. :(

Aweeeeshhhuuuummm.

I was getting busy, so I kinda quit this.
But just now, I decided to check this out again, tried the first solve, beat my PB, and decided to do the rest of them.

I think I'm gonna try to do this everytime again.

I'm really glad you like it :) I'm pretty sure that I'll be here for a few more weeks, but I don't know what will happen afterwords. I'll do my best, but I want some opinions on the race. Some questions are
What do you rate the race?
Why did you rate it as you did?
How would I make it better?
Any changes in the rules you'd like to suggest?
ETC

Thanks everyone :)
