12. 2:08.29

Comments : solve 6 was my first definitive sub 2 with both parities , will do the other 6 later, if your allowed to split Ao12's
getting more consistent but still not sub 2 -.-
4 sub 2's, 10 sub 2:30's and 2 above 2:30, getting much better at handling mess ups,

I agree with the others on the centres and edge pairing, even vs odd cubes, i am much better at odd cubes, or just bad at even cubes

[Cyrus C.]

Very nice single in there. This average had a ridiculous amount of parity. This could have been a PB average. I had OLL parity 7/12 solves. Few PLL parities in here.

7/12 sounds pretty close to average. About 3/4 of solves should have some sort of parity.

 

[RyanReese09]

I don't normally get 7/12 OLL parity. I don't mind PLL parity, it's just htat OLL parity takes me 5 seconds (a good one sub5)

All this week Ive been doing 4x4, was over 1:30 last week so those are good times for me (not the first 3 solves); almost broke my Single Pb, 0.04 away from the last solve.

 

[Zoé]

As I really have to reduce my cubing time and start studying for my upcoming exams, I decided that I would join the race... and limit myself to only those solves every week (bouhouuu )

So there it goes : 1:23.63, 1:35.32, 1:28.67, 1:32.08, 1:21.92, 1:25.91, 1:18.75, (1:35.60), (1:12.92), 1:21.55, 1:32.04, 1:26.72 = 1:26.63

Comment: Barely sub-1! To the thousandth it's 59.991. Final sub-1 week I think, just graduated!

It would be sub 1:30, but on the last turn of the 10th the cube popped.

Even though I graduated, I'm still going to continue updating the thread weekly for some time. If I ever need somebody to take over, I'll ask.

 

[Tall5001]

Cyrus you should update the round post so people can easily find the newest and old rounds!

 

[deathbypapercutz]

56.46, (49.57), 56.89, 1:03.88, 56.61, 1:10.32, 1:08.72, 1:00.37, 1:02.34, 50.36, (1:12.26), 1:09.02 -> 1:01.50

getting closer...

Round 12

1:49.16

120.55 (96.47) 101.15 109.44 (127.80) 106.22 104.25 108.30 107.91 111.33 116.21 106.21

Ususally i have been doing better then this but this isnt bad for now. I am usually around 1:35 but i just finished school so i had time. plus its 1am so that might be a factor??

 

[masteranders1]

1:24.73, 1:15.49, 1:12.83, 1:32.58, 1:36.79, 1:13.34, 1:19.91, 1:33.09, 1:41.94, 1:09.89, 1:24.71, 1:41.39 = 1:25.49 avg12

That was a fail. I don't do good on 4x4 avg12s for some reason, only avg5s.

James Ludlow : Round 13

(1.08.91) 1.09.17 1.11.84 (DNF) 1.09.01 1.21.27 1.14.33 1.14.77 1.19.30 1.13.42 1.19.85 1.16.14 = 1.14.91

Comment: P P OP - - O P - OP OP - -. On DNF I put the centres into YOB and couldn't really be bothered to sort them out. I'm surprised this is in the 14s though.

 

[Georgeanderre]

Round 13 - 2:07.05, 2:22.15, 2:10.23, (DNF), (1:29.92), 2:04.06, (DNF)
Average: DNF

3rd solve was over 1:20 reduction .. very bad for me but had a double x cross and ELL skip =O
5th solve =O 5 s off my pb and i was going slow, was punched the air after this one, not been this fast since i swapped to redux
6th solve was unlucky, had 2 centres swapped
7nth one was just bad ... misjudged the parity

DNF'd the average, no point finishing all 12 solves

This week was worst than the past week. I have many pops and my edge pairing was so bad...

 

[ianography]

1:09.03, 1:13.51, 1:14.47, 1:09.12, 1:06.44, 52.88, 1:17.69, 1:17.30, 1:19.78, 1:13.16, 1:11.59, 1:04.04 = 1:11.64

AWESOME single. New PB. And a pretty good average. I lubed my X-Cube with Maru lube and it's amazing.
