3x3 Race Thread (15s/12s/10s/8s)

Should I start a new row when a person reaches their sub-X goal and goes for a lower goal? Or should I stay with one row per person and lose some history of their previous goals?

I think the race graph does a good job of showing the history of how someone got sub-x so I wouldn't care personally if how I got there was lost on the rows. Maybe highlighting the last average when someone reaches sub-x in green would allow people to see at which point they got 3 in a row sub x. For example my 13.86 would be green since that was when I got my 3rd sub 15. And my current average for this round would be green since it's my 3rd sub 14. I am not sure if this is related to what you were concerned about.

I'm not sure if I understand you correctly. I'm talking about on the overall race spreadsheet (where i have yellow with one successive success, orange for two, and three for red). Should I start a new row when a person reaches their sub-X goal and goes for a lower goal? Or should I stay with one row per person and lose some history of their previous goals?

I was talking about the round spreadsheet; with red, amber and green backgrounds.

I haven't averaged this bad since last summer. Obviously time to be done for the day.
 
Well, now is a better time than any to start I guess! Last time I was in a race thread was race to sub-30 2H, I've come quite a long way since. I've been practicing a lot of 3x3 lately and I'm pushing that sub-13 barrier but I feel like that would be a bit close. So my goal for this is going to be sub-12!

Oh my very goodness, 3 corner twists and just general badness, oh well!

Round 125 ~ Race to sub-12

Average 1: (15.30), 16.55, 18.91, 15.41, (19.66) = (16.96)

Average 3: (16.49), 14.24, 12.10, 13.41, (10.74) = (13.25)
Average 4: (11.24), 15.40, 13.06, (16.33), 15.57 = 14.68
Average 5: 14.19, (12.64), 16.31, (17.03), 13.62 = 14.71

Total Average = 14.50 [SIZE=-3]ew[/SIZE]
 
I don't know what's happened to Methuselah96, so if nobody has any objections, I'll take over over until he comes back. I'm not going to be doing any of the graphs or tables, however. Without futher ado...

Race information
 
Thanks! Btw I'm back to using CFOP again, so my goal is back to sub-14.

Round: 126
Race to: sub-14
Average 1: 13.03, 17.43, 14.61, 15.45, 14.40, 13.49, 9.26, 12.58, 12.37, 8.86, 16.05, 11.24 = 13.25 // !? One single 0.03 from my PB before today, one sub-9, and a PB Mo3 (11.27) and Ao5 (11.40) with both singles in.
Average 2: 17.94, 15.43, 14.53, 17.96, 18.07, 14.88, 13.43, 12.22, 12.82, 13.69, 16.47, 26.53 = 15.52 // yay that went well
Average 3: 12.22, 12.05, 18.87, 12.23, 14.20, 14.08, 13.44, 12.87, 15.41, 14.36, 15.07, 12.40 = 13.63
Final average: 13.25, 15.52, 13.63 = 14.13

Second average ruined the final average, but the other two were below average so the end result was normal.

Dang it so close. If the third average wasn't so bad I probably would've been sub 13. Practiced CN a lot this week and it really helped my lookahead.
