It was 11.81 avg75..got nervous towards the end =/ Also had 2 pops (which is a BIG deal for guhong :(), 21 and 16.

Finally sub-12!

edit: 8.21 was last slot + OLL skip or something like that I think. Others were full step. 8 sub-10s :D

Cubes Solved: 50/50
Average: 1:50.71
Standard Deviation: 5.08
Best Time: 1:35.99
Worst Time: 2:04.79

I. am. never. doing. that. again.

Around solve 40, I developed a blood blister on my right index finger. Wanted to make it to 50 solves, so I fought through the pain. I now have a blood blister just over half a centimetre in diameter, which is even making typing this difficult, so I'll just stop typi

Wow, congrats on managing to do that. I probably wouldn't do this unless I was extremely fast at 5x5x5 :p

If I want to take big averages for my main events, I'd probably do:

OH: 50
2H: 50/100
4x4x4: 25/50 ( If I get a really nice cube)
5x5x5: 25

Why these numbers? Probably because I just like the fact that they're multiples of 25 or something :p

I think if I was going for a 'big average'...

2x2: 1000
OH: 200
2H: 500
Pyra: 500
4x4 etc: bleh

:P
 
Basically I think that if I can get a xyz average of 50/25 at home, then this is probably what I should be aiming for at competitions (unless my OPBs are better than my pb average of 50 then I need a new cube or something :p)

This is something new (for me) I'm going to try.

Wtf Edward. I have no idea what method you're using. Are you using Roux, Petrus, or just CFOP. And congrats on sub-13 :P It's still eluding me.
