11. DNF (forgot to U' the cross :()
12. 38.54

Yes! this is probably the best session I have had.

Also, is it smart to turn down the countdown to 5 seconds? At competition, everyone seems to start before the 8 seconds, so I thought I might as well learn.

Use all of the inspection time they give you. Once you're good at planning the whole cross you'll be able to see and track the first F2L pair in inspection and during cross. It's in one of Feliks's How to Get Faster tutorial vids.
 
Round 23

Average 44.28


1 46.71
2 38.39
3 36.55
4 41.23
5 DNF (OLL fail)
6 42.46
7 37.26
8 38.66
9 51.54 (AGH! would have been 32, but I somehow went from a T perm into a J perm halfway through and had to go back to the F2L :.(
10 33.63
11 01:07.3 (another massive PLL fail, but I had to carry on cause I already had one DNF)
12 42.75

Could have had a really nice average here, but for some reason I kept messing up on some PLL's that I must have done a thousand times. OK, definitely sub 40 next week.

I know this is really late but the new scrambles aren't up yet so I thought I would just do round 23.

This is alright for me. Just came back to cubing after 4 month break a few days ago. So this is alright but not my best.
I am waiting for the 3 in a row sub-30 before I progress.

I was getting concerned near the end but saved myself with that 23. Should've been a 22 but I started the wrong U-perm and had to backtrap a few moves. With no warm up though I'll take it. Two more:D

@MichaelErskine: You submitted two sets of results for round 23, so I used the first set. Don't feel bad, you are not the first person to do that.

(34.70 is only 1/100th of a second worse than my personal best! ...Working on look-ahead and slowly getting better, but, my f2l times are kind of all over the place, so... I'll keep it up! Thanks for maintaining this thread, I'll be back)
