Probably could hit sub 14, but I just want to make sure I can do sub 15 consistently.

= 13.94 ao12 (not even sub 13)

Really not in the mood today My hands are really dry and I cannot hold the cube properly. It become better in later solves, but the damage has already been done. A counting 16 and 18 is not acceptable to me. Perhaps next year!
