Bleh. Was pretty clear of 19 until those last two solves. Shame about all the god damned +2s...
If anyone wants to take over, feel free to PM me. Senior year sucks. Sorry this is late.
Also, why are we doing races to sub-xx for like, every second between 20 and 15? haha

The format of this race is:
- 30 solves
- As you do the 30 solves, count how many sub xx solves (where sub xx is the goal/race you're in) you get
- In your post, include: Round number, Race that you're in, average, number of sub xx solves, and the times
- Also include your results in the following format:
Your username - # of sub x's (the average) // x/3
x = number of times you got at least 20 sub x's in the past round(s) for that specific sub-x
- If you get at least 20 sub xx solves 3 times in a row, you've graduated, unless you want to keep continuing to ensure you're sub xx
- New rounds are every Monday
- If you have any questions, ask in a post! Round 117 Scrambles:

Already failed the first solve... it was so easy :fp
Two solves in and both have been really easy
Best Ao12 was 16.76. I was getting really angry at my times half way through, which made my hands start shaking even more which made everything worse... sup-17 average. Just... why can't I do anything well.
On a happier note, I'm happy to announce Methuselah96 as the new results poster! I'm stepping down after about half a year of posting, it's been great watching people progress. He and I have talked about a few changes coming up in this race thread and we think that you guys will love what we have in store. Big kudos for him for taking over, everyone welcome him! *clap clap*

lol start, only slightly better than normal end. Very good average for me.
I set myself a goal of sub-15 by Christmas in late October/early November last year. I don't think it's going to happen until at least my birthday (~Easter), probably later.
The race is being formatted a little differently from now on. I will post scrambles here weekly on Sundays. There are three rotating round formats which are listed below. You must complete all three round formats successfully to graduate. You can race for any sub-X time you want for now as long as it's under 20. While you're at it, read the rules.
5 Averages of 5:
5 sets of 5 scrambles will be given.
Each set of scrambles will be executed as an average of 5 (of the 5 attempts, the best and worst attempts are removed, and the arithmetic mean of the remaining 3 attempts is that set's result).
The final result will be the average of the resulting 5 averages (of the 5 averages, the best and worst averages are removed, and the arithmetic mean of the remaining 3 averages is the final result).
3 Averages of 12:
3 sets of 12 scrambles will be given.
Each set of scrambles will be executed as an average of 12 (of the 12 attempts, the best and worst attempts are removed, and the arithmetic mean of the remaining 10 attempts is that set's result).
The final result will be the mean of the resulting 3 averages (the arithmetic mean of the 3 averages is the final result).
Average of 50:
1 set of 50 scrambles will be given.
The set of scrambles will be executed as an average of 50 (of the 50 attempts, the best 3 and worst 3 attempts are removed, and the arithmetic mean of the remaining 44 attempts is that set's result).
The final result will be the resulting average.
Rounds will rotate between the three round formats.
Scrambles for new rounds will be posted every Sunday.
Scrambles are generated using the official scrambling program.
Anybody can participate in this competition.
You can use any method or condition you want.
Use the scrambles given from the current round.
Use any timer you want.
If a attempt needs to be redone for any reason perform the inverse of the scramble to get a new scramble.
You do not need to record your solves on video.
Do not cheat.
Post all times in a reply to this thread and include averages if known.
You can be in any race Sub-X (where X is less than 20).
Include the race you are in in your results.
Do not post results to previous rounds if newer scrambles have already been posted.
Results will be posted every Sunday before a new round is posted.
If you get 3 Sub-X rounds in a row you graduate.
You may continue to compete in a lower Sub-X round after you graduate.
