What times do you average for 3x3 speed?

[Dene]

Title says it all. It would be good to compare the results today to the results of a year or two ago.

Edit: I missed 14 whoops. That's what I was going to vote for too

 

[IamWEB]

Sub-13 when I'm doing well?

EDIT: oic, poll.

 

[maggot]

haha i would have voted 14! lie, im still sup-15 ; w; hopefully not close to my physical limit; w;

 

[Rubiks560]

I average comms.

I'm not sure I should be posting here, but I'm averaging about 72 seconds.

I have only been speed cubing for about a month, despite the fact that I have been able to solve the cube since I was 9 (31 years ago).

I think that the vast majority of people on this site average over 20 seconds. I think you should have included more options for those people.

Three years ago, I averaged mid 20s. Now I average around 20 seconds.

Anything above 20 doesn't really matter srsly

Zubon, is your avatar a portion of a chess board. If so, 1. Nf3 ( unless if you wish to go first, which by all means do so--I don't mind). And amostay2004, speed solving over 20 seconds does count. Be it 90 seconds or 13 seconds, speed solving is solving faster than one did a year ago, a month ago, an hour ago, etcetera.

19 ish so close to breaking it.....

Thanks for the inspiration and motivation

(25" avg here)

 

[amostay2004]

What I meant was anything above 20 should just be pooled into the 'slow' category (no offense here, I simply mean those who're either quite new to cubing or not serious enough to practise)

 

[RyanReese09]

Average of 100 is 14.23. Sub14 averages happen once in a while when I practice.

I voted 13 but...

 

[AvidCuber]

17-ish. Have been stuck here for months, but haven't had too much time to cube either. I need to actually start practising instead of just posting on the forums

 

[goatseforever]

LOL ITS 2011 AND SOME PEOPLE STILL AREN'T SUB-20??? WHAT ARE THEY, MENTALLY RETARDED? HAHA!

 

[Inf3rn0]

I generally average 18-19 but I didn't want to vote 19+ so I went for 18~.

You guys, the whole point of this thread is to look at how the faster people on this forum have gotten better over the last year or so. If you're not sub20 you should be improving a lot faster, and you should be trying to improve your algs and fingertricks, not worrying about your progress on such a long timeframe.

Anyway: I'm around 13 seconds average... sometimes my avg100 is over 13 and sometimes under, but around there in general.

 

[Macht Spiel]

it has been around 3 months and my time is around 50 - 60 secs, I use 2LOOK METHOD and working on Fridrich F2L.
Please suggest me, as these F2L have made me slower .

Switching to advanced methods always slows you down. The best suggestion is simply to practice a lot, eventually you will start seeing improovements.

None taken... I've been cubing for a little over a year now and I'm aware I could be way faster (if only I would spend more time speedcubing than puzzle solving). Is just that realizing you are still on the "slow" category is an uncomfortable truth.

At this time last year I was averaging 1:15', currently I'm around 25-26". Next year's goal: upper 15".

Yes and especially to get an idea of how many people fit into speed groups. There has been a clear and consistent trend in official competitions but at-home times are also interesting.

 

[IamWEB]

It's an extremely broad "slow" category, though.
