The Uber Monthly 3x3 10,000 Cube Marathon!!!

I did the math, and I need to do 385 a day to be done by the 11th. (Only about 700 done) For some reason I got a boost of confidence, by that number, figuring it'd be way higher....I'm back in it. :D
 
How are you guys doing? We're about halfway done with the month (if you started on the 11th), so you should be around 5000 solves by now.

If you've done more than 1000ish solves by the end of the month, but haven't actually completed the average, list your numbers and I'll put you down anyway as a partial result. This is a really tough marathon, and I commend anyone who has the guts and patience to do most or even all of it.

Agreed! Purely from the viewpoint of a spectator to this marathon, I can assure those competing that there are those of us who are incredibly impressed at you all competing. I for one can't wait to see how many people make it to the 10,000 mark, whether the completers have lost chunks of solve times or not! Just doing 10,000 solves in one month is incredibly impressive, and deserves a lot of recognition!
 
8400 now.
Yeah I'm pretty behind now. That's 500+ solves per day which I most likely won't be able to do so I'll probably have to take an extra day or two to actually finish, unless someone has a problem with me getting more than a month then I'll just post however many I actually finish on the 2nd.

I'm on 1045. Best stuff:

Single: 9.56
Avg5: 11.89
Avg12: 13.52
Mo100: 14.91

Interquartile mean of 1045: 15.51

lol speedsolving doesn't know that "interquartile" is a word because there is a red squiggle under it.

I finished 9300 for my one month with an average of 17.90. No one seems to have a problem with me continuing, since it doesn't really end until the 11th, so I'll go ahead and finish this off. Or you guys can go ahead and put me down for this if you want to :P
 
Sorry for double posting

I'm finally done :D
Average: 17.87
Sum of all times: 178659.03 = 2 days 1 hour 37 minutes 39.03 seconds

Excel file with all the times

About the Excel file:
NL basically means that I didn't have a skip, not that it wasn't easy.
In the beginning I was saying coll pll skip when it should have been epll skip.
Accidental xcross means I didn't plan the xcross, it just happened.
lolcross means that it was an easy cross.
I'm pretty sure I noted all the skips I had.
There's no DNF because if I popped or screwed up I redid the scramble and I didn't count +2s either since that's what I normally do.

I'll edit this with more stuff later.

Best Single: 9.03

i did 50 consecutively and it took me 23 minutes flat. so its not that long when you think about it... to do 200 solves would be about an hour and a half and thats for fun, and mostly better to whatever you do for an hour and a half elsewhere
