"NEW" Race to Sub-30!

NEW CUBER

Round 70

(1:20.07) (my blue centre cap flew off and went under the sofa)
1:07.34
50.32
(41.96) (PLL Skip)

number of times: 12/12
best time: 41.96
worst time: 1:20.07

best avg5: 50.67 (σ = 6.98)

avg12: 55.17 (σ = 8.14)

Thought I would do this to help me improve. I have just learnt intuitive F2L. Kinda depressing because I was averaging ~47 before, but I am sure I will get quicker than that. Once I got into it, my F2L went from being 45 seconds to more like 30-35. Decided that this week I will learn to do my cross on the bottom, and get more fluid with my F2L.

I did the same thing when i started, i used beginners method f2l and then i switched over to intuitive f2l, I got way slower at first and now i just hit my PB average of 28.39 ao12

Once I realized that block building the 1x2x3 block was not trying to build a 2x2x3 block, then my times dropped a decent amount.

(my blue centre cap flew off and went under the sofa)

This happens to me sometimes too. Is it a GuHong you use? I noticed that the centre caps on mine can be a bit loose sometimes, but it always seems to be the blue that pops lol. I'm well aware that the sticker thats blue could have been put on any centre, just find it an interesting coincidence that it happened to someone else :P
 
Round 70

Event: One Handed

Average: 48.76


52.01, 44.80, 48.25, 49.56, 39.82, 53.87, 47.24, 55.56, 47.40, 42.25, 50.09, 52.12

No additional stats as done in my car during lunch to make sure I did not miss a week! :)
 
When do the round 71 scrambles come in?

The dates arent really set in stone i think (havent been here long myself), more when Brian has the time to post them up. The closing date for round 70 was the 5th, so it being the 7th tomorrow I would say there is a fair chance that it should be up in the next 24 hours, but not a guarantee. I can't speak for Brian!

Also welcome to the race :)

Congratulations to jrb, this week's graduate!

Do my results from round 55-57 (57 is sub 30) count towards graduation?

Sure.

When do the round 71 scrambles come in?

Yes the Labor Day holiday threw me off a bit... normally I post the results and new scrambles sometime on Monday evening.

DNF and 2 slowest times were all G-perms so I really need to work on that for next week

Almost 10 seconds average drop since last week. At this rate I'll be sub-30 in 5 or 6 weeks time.
 
Round 71
Avg 30.74

12: 00:25.53
11: 00:30.85
10: 00:29.85
9: 00:39.53

2: 00:36.83
1: 00:29.40

My Ao5 on cubetimer - Avg. 5 00:30.00 ( Y U NO SUB 30, Ao5?!:fp). That said a big difference than the last weeks. I found that using the PLL trainer helped really loosen me up and get my lookahead in shape, and to focus. I recommend it :)
