It's been a long time since I've posted in this race. Hopefully I'll get sub-15 averages the next two weeks. Almost had a sub-12 solve which would have been nice.

First avg12: 15.00, 17.37, 15.75, 16.01, 15.79, (18.38), 16.15, 15.64, (13.14), 17.03, 14.97, 13.71 = 15.74. - There were multiple solves that easily could've been better.
Second avg12: 16.84, 17.10, 15.37, 16.85, 13.88, (11.35), 16.42, 17.95, (20.87+), 12.30, 12.50, 15.07 = 15.43. - Most of these solves were either really good or felt really bad.
Third avg12: 14.21, (18.68), 18.46, 14.55, 15.92, 14.66, (9.62), 15.39, 15.72, 15.42, 15.04, 13.67 = 15.30. - Counting 18 is bad for the average because everything else that counts is a 14 or 15, and one 13. The 9 is legit, multiple easy F2L pairs, no edges oriented OLL -> PLL skip. 3rd sub-10 in 2 weeks.

Mean of averages: 15.49
