"NEW" Race to Sub-30!

Can someone tell me what standard deviation means? Am i suppose
To add this stat whatever it is?
Standard deviation is a statistic, it is basically how consistent/inconsistent you are. A large standard deviation value = inconsistent, small = consistent. Of course it isn't so cut and dry, it is more complex, but that is the simple version of it. And no, you do not need to include, some people just do, because, well, why not? (some timers like qqtimer provide this automatically after averages so it is easy to include).

can i give up and change solving method?

Yes.

Round 100: Speed

Average: 28.34

30.01, 30.10, 23.00, 27.57, 27.65, 32.43, 24.32, 29.22, (34.90), 32.49, (22.05), 26.63

Well, this was quite a good average for me, it wasn't very consistent, but I'm happy anyway, I think a little luck was involved in this though, and I may have screwed myself a little for next week :P
 
Round 100:
Average: 44.60

44.81 39.79 41.56 38.12 38.99 (26.25) 55.90 53.91 40.04 54.11 (67.89) 38.73

New single PB of 26.25. After that, just about everything went horribly wrong until the final solve.
 
Round 100
Average 28.89

31.86, 26.92, 29.97, 31.06, 30.56, (21.92), 32.28, 28.94, 23.05, (33.58), 26.86, 27.41 = 28.89

I think that's me graduated :)

I did two averages of 50 last night, both 29.xx, with solves ranging from 20.xx to sup-40, so I'm some way from consistently sub-30 but getting there.

lol killed it this time :) felt really good while solving, one of my better averages for sure and only one time above 30s, which I mis-slotted during...
 
Round 100
3x3 OH
Average: 26.76 :D

26.71, 24.81, 27.48, 22.13, 31.13, 25.84, 27.12, (52.66), 27.34, 25.31, 29.71, (17.41)

YES! :D

Amazing solves(except for one), and a new personal best! :D

Nice! I average ~55 with OH... Once I graduate sub-30 w/roux I'm going to do OH. That is, unless I'm feeling lazy and want to do 3x3 on 4x4 lol
 
Round 100
Ave: I'm not sure!! (Im not sure how to calculate the ao12 with a DNF in the mix??)

31.87
36.65
45.75 Worst
32.19
DNF(32.26) Cube exploded during pll grrrr
34.90
42.82
30.92
41.77
33.24
30.01 Best
36.24

Im pretty discouraged after this session!! Nothing was going right. Felt like my brain wouldn't tell me what the colours were fast enough!! ive been closing in on a sub30 ave recently enough with many sub30 ao5's so I was excited to find this site and these forum competitions! I think i'm trying too hard now that i'm trying to compete to post better times. I'm going to have to practice solving in front of people too cause I'm sure that will be a distraction at competitions!
I'm going to try to look on the bright side and realize that this will be good practice for when I go to my first WCA competition.

Nice! I average ~55 with OH... Once I graduate sub-30 w/roux I'm going to do OH. That is, unless I'm feeling lazy and want to do 3x3 on 4x4 lol

what does 3x3 on 4x4 mean?

In the time I didn't participate in this thread, I feel like I got more consistent, and just a bit faster. Hurray!
