I didn't end up going to the comp on April 8th, I did have one today.
I didn't do good in any events except skewb (which I got double PR).
I don't know what happened in 3x3, 5x5 wasn't good. 7x7 was terrible, I didn't get a success on 3BLD, but my 2 times were around 5:00 (I didn't have time...
I have an April 8th and an April 14th comp, so I'm planning on practicing for the comps. I'll put my goals for the events below.
2x2:
PR average (5.67)
3x3:
PR single (15.94) and average (17.70). Make 2nd round
6x6:
PR single (4:31) and mean (4:41)
7x7:
PR single (8:27). I don't plan on...
I haven't been practicing 3BLD, but I just got a PB of 4:12.52. I messed up the first two letters on corners and had to redo them and still got a PB. I know I have room for improvement, I just need to spend time practicing.

I can't find my solution, but I put my cross solution possibilities below and I know it ended in OLL 28 and a PLL skip. I think my first pair was the red blue pair.

Right after this...
I learned some more OLL's: 20, 31, 32, 35, 37, 43. I've been practicing 6x6 and set all my PB's today (notably a 4:03 DP single and a 4:35 average, which I can easily improve). I need to practice more 3BLD, I just haven't done much of it.
Pyraminx PB single: 2.69

I haven't been practicing as much as I wanted. I've gotten pretty good with my letter pair recall, I just need to make my memo faster (it takes around 4:00). I learned another dot OLL (OLL 1), so I know both cases with no corners oriented. I got a 2x2 PB of 1.44 (6 moves, not 1-looked)...
I did a lot of events in the weekly comp and set a ton of site PR records.
3x3: PR average by a lot
4x4: PR single, PB3
5x5: PR single, PB2
OH, clock, and pyra: all PR average
Mirror cube: PR single and average, PB average
I might be able to contribute a bit here. I've used acetone for lots of projects. I've always used it indoors without any problems. I've never taken any safety precautions except covering the container when I'm not using it. The smell can be annoying, but personally it doesn't bother me...

I think I'm going to work on 3x3 OLL and 3bld, but I haven't worked up...
I picked back up cubing today. My college classes just ended today, so from now on, my only class ends at 9am. Which should give me plenty of free time. Somehow I was only a few seconds slower, and now after some solving time, I'm faster than before. I just got a 3x3 pb single.
