Oh, neat, I didn't even notice this was the week I graduate...

Also, I never noticed how rapidly I improved. o.O Almost the moment I switched methods... I suppose Roux is better for me. Hopefully this keeps going so that I can be sub-20 soon...

By the way, can I try graduating opposite colour neutral now? I currently do white-bottomed (lol) blocks, so I want to try out neutrality with yellow. Will it still be counted?

I love how my best and worst are my first two. Not much improvement, but I didn't practice much, so it wasn't much of a surprise. Busy week...

Really pleased with this week. Working on my lookahead and not turning so fast. This week I got my first sub-30 Avg5 and I got a 33.60 Avg12 as well.
 
...Are we doing Ao12 (ALL 12 solves affect average) or Ao10 (ignore best and worst times)?...

Ignore best time and worst time of the 12.

By the way, can I try graduating opposite colour neutral now? I currently do white-bottomed (lol) blocks, so I want to try out neutrality with yellow. Will it still be counted?

Yes! Though I'm not sure what to call it with Roux... it wouldn't be YC (Yellow Cross). Maybe YCN (Yellow color neutral) or YFL (Yellow First Layer)? Is there already a term Roux folks use for this?

Is it okay if I rejoin with ZZ?

Yes! Welcome back!

Totally go for it dude!! If you can go sub 30 yellow blocks do it and it will still be counted!

Edit: Dang you Brian you ninja'd me!

Close sub 30, my first actually (but I time best of 12 like once a week, and I progress a lot each week).
That 19.13 was nice, my PB a PLL skip.
It's sick, i've had 4 PLL and 2 OLL skips today and I have solved the cube only 30 times :p
