Your Cheater's Average

[Zarxrax]

I just came up with a fun way of obtaining an avg of 5, which I call the cheater's average.

Basically the way it works is like this:
1. Do an avg of 5.
2. Delete your slowest time and do another solve
3. Repeat step 2 as many times as you like

I think this is really fun, and I've been doing it for a while.
I normally average about 30 seconds, and my all time best avg of 5 is 26.78.

My cheaters average is 23.59 [24.16, 23.70, (24.31), 22.59, (22.91)]
What's yours?

This is for cheaters... I love you

I think to make it actually an accomplishment or something, you should only get to do step 2 twice or so. But it's a joke anyway, so whatever.


Also, your times should not be affected with whether you have a +2 or not, if you get a pop during PLL you just stop the timer and have it recorded, and if you do the wrong PLL or mess it up, your time counts anyway. Also, if you screw up during cross, you get to try the scramble again

This is my favorite thing to do. Nothing feels better than deleting like a 20

Or you can just take the 5 best solves from an avg100 and pretend like you deleted the others.

Or you could not waste your time doing 100 solves.

Or you could just "add time" 5 times and put solves 1-2 seconds below what you normally solve >_>

Add some random milliseconds to the end and you're good.

Come on, why would anyone want to cheat on this kinda thing? Only person you are cheating is yourself.

I don't see how an avg100 is a 'waste of time'; you like doing it, and it's good practice.

NO, you should. You hint that you are getting mad in your post. It's just something fun to do.

4d6 drop lowest
This made me laugh, because it's exactly what I though upon reading the OP.

 

[Samania]

I eat cheaters for breakfast :3

omg I'm so sorry I didn't mean it! I deeply apologize for any trauma caused to anyone by seeing someone post twice.

 

[hawkmp4]

Guys. Seriously. Stop.
I'm talking to aronpm, ChrisBird (not as much), and Edward.
Have you ever thought about just letting a post go?
It's really unpleasant to read all your bickering. Just let it go. It's an internet forum...it really doesn't matter.
Rule 6.

You should! I am scarred for life.

This idea is equivalent to taking an average of as many times as you want and deleting all but the best 5. That's probably easier. Also, asking people what average they get when cheating is pretty silly, because you could also "cheat" by starting the timer, dropping your scrambled cube, picking up a solved cube, and stopping the timer. I think that would get you better times, too. Bonus props for using cubes you can't tell apart when solved.

My bickering consists of trolling. I don't know about them but I'm not serious.

Maybe I should add :rolleyes: to the end of all my non-serious posts so that people can tell the difference.
