"NEW" Race to Sub-30!

Round 82 - OH = 48.60

54.87, 50.92, 39.79, 52.92, 41.27, 49.72, 49.06, (37.89), (56.14), 52.02, 42.31, 53.09

avg 33.66

Pleased to see a bit more progress this week. A couple of those times featured mistakes which would have previously cost me a *lot* of time. There's a PB avg5 in there too.
Been mostly concentrating on F2L for a while now and I felt my lookahead was better this week too.

Getting there... I can already see an improvement since last week! All I need is to memorize 2-look OLL/PLL completely, and I'll be able to at least get it sub-60. Practice makes perfect!

12 - 37.74

Best: 37.18
Worst: 1:01.25
Average: 43.85

My cube is losing me a load of time by locking and "stretching", I'm pretty sure the adjustment screws do nothing, I've lubed it and it moves smoothly, but it keeps locking, probably adding 3-4 seconds to my average :mad:

AO12 - 40.47


I had stopped practicing for about 2 months, I have been slowly getting back to speed. Today i was averaging around 35 AO12 before this, i just wanted to do good and choked. Going for sub 40 next time.

good job! Do you use 4-Look now? I'd recommend (and believe others would agree with me) to use 4-Look for a while - at least until 35 seconds, though some would probably even say wait until sub 30 to start 3-look. I use 4-look and have a sub 60 average and definitely have room for improvement, so I'm not worrying about 3-look for a while. It will probably only save me 5-6 seconds (OLL only saves 2 or 3 seconds from what I hear). But good work! :)

Not a lot of non W/Y solves, but I guess CN is all about making the easiest cross.

I learned this method about 45 minutes ago, so I am pleased.
 
Average: 59.99 (With Roux)

1:00.52, 1:24.35, 40.51, 59.95, 24.84, 35.91, 1:10.28, 50.67, 1:24.59, 1:03.56, 54.53, 1:19.63

What do you average with CFOP? I average 14 and I got this.
 
Round 82 : Speed
Average : 32.97

34.46, 32.39, 28.38, 40.47, 28.27, 35.16, 38.06, 34.40, 28.37, 36.44, 29.71, 32.34
Not a good session :( I definitely could have gotten a sub 31 or 30.
 
Round 82 Average: 50.08

Standard deviation: 7.20
Best Time: 38.42
Worst Time: 67.67

Times: 45.38 55.54 53.59 41.75 67.67 48.98 55.78 49.23 50.68 52.38 38.42 47.51

Messed the cross and didnt see it until half way through F2L, hence the 67.67 lol :) But my first sub-40 ever! And my best Ao12 so far (even in non-forum-comp) :) So I'm pretty happy with this run. yay cubing!
 
Round 82

Average: 56.45

57.67, 48.16, 55.55, 55.24, 70.90, 46.33, 62.55, 53.24, 66.35, 60.21, 49.09, 52.16

This was an overall good run, the only sub-50 that was lucky was (of course) the 46.33. It's my best average so far! If I were paying more attention during, say, the 70.90 solve, I might have a better average... But alas, I'm working on it :)

No graduates this week :(

Not a lot of non W/Y solves, but I guess CN is all about making the easiest cross.
When I went through CN I forced myself to do two solves per 12 from each side until my times came down for all colors. Otherwise, early on it seemed like the white and yellow crosses were more appealing or at least caught my eye more often. Just an idea.
