Round 2
Race to Sub-15

Average 1 : 18.01
18.56, 17.19, 19.47, (15.84), 16.38, 18.87, 16.50, (19.67), 19.47, 17.95, 16.84, 18.84

I swear, I get better when I do forum races. I did 14 solves before this as warmup, and the mean was 19.1x.

Average 2 : 18.93
17.28, 18.16, 19.04, 17.53, 21.93, 18.05, 19.55, 19.02, 19.21, (22.56), (16.29), 19.56

This is what I'll call a "slightly better than average" average for me, because I average about 19.10 outside of forum comps. xD The first solve of this average added on to the last 11 solves of the first rolls into a PB average of 12, 17.88. PB by 0.04.

Average 3 : 18.28
13.94, 19.63, 17.87, 20.49, (13.88), (21.30), 16.45, 21.06, 17.54, 18.91, 18.02, 18.86

Yet another great average! Lol @ counting 13. That's probably what made this so good. Mean of 50 solves I've done today is 18.48 :O (Remember I said I did 14 warm-up solves.) I'm going to turn that into an Average of 100, and I promise it will be sub-19. xD

Mean of Averages : 18.41

Mean of three averages: 18.68

Went okay except first average, and a few other solves, should have warmed up more.

Round 3
Race to Sub-15

Average 1 : 18.10
16.30, 19.58, 19.81, (20.83), 16.33, (15.10), 19.09, 20.51, 15.68, 18.87, 18.72, 16.06

Spoiler

Solve 1 = Orange Cross.
Solve 5 = Multislotting.
Solve 6 = Rotationless.
Solve 9 = 2 Free Pairs.
Solve 12 = 2 Forced Free Pair + 1 Accidental.

No warm-up! First solve was Cross on F (I scramble with Yellow U, Orange F). Then I just started getting really lucky in the middle of the average. The 3 19s and 2 20s kept this in check. Hope to see more 18.xy averages soon!

Average 2 : 18.30
19.07, 19.44, 17.99, (13.14), 15.10, 18.89, 19.16, (20.80), 17.99, 19.12, 17.64, 18.55

Spoiler

Solve 2 = Big lock up
Solve 4 = PLL skip!
Solve 5 = One Free Pair
Solve 8 = One Free Pair :fp

Not too lucky, and not bad at all.

Average 3 : 18.12
17.30, 18.15, 18.09, 19.62, 20.61, 17.65, (21.60), 17.35, (15.38), 17.42, 18.84, 16.16

Spoiler

Solve 3 = 2 second luck up
Solve 8 = One Free Pair
Solve 9 = Accidental XCross
Solve 11 = Epic FreeFOP!
Solve 12 = One Free Pair

Not too much luck, but still much better than average for me. I'd say I'm normally around 18.5-18.7.

Mean of Averages : 18.17
