Comments: Awesome times and sub 30!!! Also I had a pop on number 11, so I redid it. I hope that's okay.

I've been meaning to do this for a while, and finally got around to it during a slow day in the lab.

ROUND 151

Average of 12: 29.10

I started off doing really well, started thinking "maybe I'll sub-30 the whole ao12", and then hauled off and had two 36s in a row. One I inserted a pair wrong and the other I screwed up the OLL alg. Finished up just well enough to stay sub-30.

Great to see you getting sub-30! 2 more rounds to go for graduation!

You too man. Great, 2 more rounds to go. Also, if I were you I would re-do the solve anyway. Even I have 2 more rounds to go. Then sub-30 hahaha

I just happened to be in the zone, lol. I need to only do these competitions when I am seriously feeling the speed in my fingers. Don't you have 2 more rounds left as well? That would be cool if all 3 of us graduated at the same time haha.

I think it's crazy how you go from thinking 'woohoo, sub 30' when you manage the occasional sub-30 solve, then suddenly you have to mis-insert a pair or screw up an alg to go over 30! I was stuck just over 30 seconds for ages, now suddenly I can average 28 seconds for an Ao50, and as soon as the timer goes over 30 seconds I'm disappointed.

Hopefully the same will happen (one day) with sub 20! Look forward to seeing you all on the Race to Sub-20 thread! :-)
 
Round 151 : SPEED

Average : 28.35

30.04 31.05 26.07 24.32 31.25 26.82 25.03 29.94 26.54 (23.26) 32.41 (33.43)
 
Round 151

Average 42.67

31.12, 1:04.89, 43.71, 36.80, 30.49, 1:06.08, 1:00.49, 28.24, 33.26, 1:36.60, 31.62, 25.57

I average ~26 with CFOP but I'm doing this challenge for ZZ. Solve 5 I messed up EO and hat to revert to CFOP for OLL so I did it again (but applying the scramble twice). Expectedly, my problem is with EOLine, and when I get an easy case you can see that I'm getting sub-30 times, I just need to work on EO recognition and planning. Also at the moment I'm not using an inspection timer, so I want to be able to get sub-30 and less than 15 seconds inspection before I'm done.

I've just started to be sub-40 for maybe 50% of my avg12s, so this is ok. But the last solve definitely could have been better.

Comments: I cannot believe I got 42.45. I haven't gotten a score in the 40's for a long time now. Of course I would have a god damn brain fart during a competition. It really sucks because my other times are pretty good. And I jsut set my PB Ao12 RIGHT before this, so like really, this is a bad average for how I actually feel right now. Oh well, at least it's under 30. 1 more round. ;)

Round 152: speed

Average: 28.30
RA of 12: 28.19
Best RA of 5: 27.35
Std. Dev.: 1.18

Times:

29.51
27.81 (grr, knew that OLL!)
27.86
26.50
(32.01) (BADLY screwed up... twice!)
27.61
27.95
(25.63)
26.51
30.93
28.05
29.20

So... a second faster than last week, but no 'fast' solves. I consider anything under 25 'fast' these days, and I normally expect a couple in an Ao12... but pretty consistent. Guess I should be happy with this, or maybe happy that I'm disappointed with a 28 second Ao12?

OK, so just did another Ao12 to see if it was competition nerves, and average was 28.56. Suddenly happy with my 28.3 :-)
