Round 29 = 1:12.66
(DNF), 1:14.84, 1:18.68, 1:15.58, 1:15.80, 1:05.77, 1:07.71, 1:14.59, 1:17.21, 1:12.59, (1:03.56), 1:03.86

The DNF is a piece popping in some little bushes, 1 floor lower than we were cubing :/ So I was a bit afraid of that happening again and slower in the beginning, but it still turned out to be a pretty good average for me !

At least when you pop a piece and it drops a floor it can still be found (unlike at Mount Kinabalu) and it doesn't float away in the Mekong river
 
REVISED THREAD RULES

Here are the revised thread rules as promised. I will try and organise with a Mod or Administrator to have them replace those in post no 1. In addition I am finding out how possible it is to change the ownership of the results/scrambles link post so this can be updated.

Any questions or glaring erros please let me know.

--------------------------------------------------------------
  • Anyone is welcome to join, there are no requirements on your times when you being to participate in the thread.
  • This is a banded goal thread, with the goal times being 2 minutes, 1 minute 30 seconds and 1 minute. If you do not specify which band you will be competing in you will automatically be placed with your goal band being the band closest which is lower than your initial posted average. i.e. If your first posted average is 2:20.07 you will be plaved in the 2:00 goal band. If your first posted average is 1:29.99 you will be placed in the 1:00 goal band.
  • You graduate within your goal banding once you have sucessfully attained three averages below your goal with no averages above the goal inbetween. This allows for missing rounds with no impact to your graduation progression.
  • Once graduated at 2:00 and 1:30 you will automatically be placed in the next lower banding if you wish to continue to compete in the race.
  • Once graduated at 1:00 any times posted will be published in a separate Alumini section within the results.
  • Please do not use your own scrambles, please ensure you use the scrambles given within the thread for each round. These will be generated each week by me with the official WCA scrambler using the URL http://worldcubeassociation.org/reg...ramble_cube.htm?size=4&num=12&len=40&multi=on
  • We will be using the Ao12 system where twelve solves are completed and the best and worst individual times are disregarded and the remaining 10 times are averaged.
  • Although there is no verification of your times please be honest. The race is for your own enjoyment and progression. Any ficticious posted times are not going to get you to you goal any quicker in reality. You will be cheating yourself more than other participants.
  • Videos are always welcome to support your times or to prompt discussion or ask for advise. Please embed the video, but within spoiler tags as available on a 'Post Reply' toolbar and also post the usual textual requirements of a results post.
  • When posting results, please at the very least post the Round number and average (in minutes, seconds and hundredths of a second, e.g. 1:23.86, being 1 minute and 26.86 seconds). It is also preferred to post the 12 individual times. Any other information is also welcome such as the statistical data offered by qqTimer etc and your own comments. In addition if you would like a different name to appear on the results, say your real name as opposed to your forum name please also state this. An example results post would be:-

    Round 0

    Average 1:29.99

    1:29.98, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:30.00
    comment: The first solve was a pb.

    or
    Chris Wright, Round 0

    Average 1:29.99

    1:29.98, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:29.99, 1:30.00
    comment: the first solve was a pb.
    Click to expand...

  • The race is bi weekly with scrambles being posted (if at all possible) between 8pm and 10pm GMT each Tuesday and Friday. Results will ordinarily be posted at the same time but may follow slightly later in a post reserved prior to the scrambles. Forthcoming results and scrambles will be posted in separate threads.
  • I will allow late posting of times but please clearly mark the round and make a note that it is a 'Backfilled Time' - I will then endeavor to alter the relevant results post. Please note depending on the practicality of adminiistering, this rule may be withdrawn in the future.
  • I fully support constructive discussion within the thread, please feel free to use the thread for 4x4 on topic discussion between the participants and forum members but please refrain from trolling and/or spamming!
  • Where a specific thread rule is not covered please assume WCA regulations, if there is some ambiguity on something please feel free to ask within the thread or alternatively send me a forum private message.
  • Finally, the best of luck in attaining your goals, lets get cubing!

Love the new set up Selkie! You should if you can get the title changed to just 4x4 race or something other then Race to sub 1 4x4x4, New. Just so people who arent going for sub 1 wont think this isnt a race for them because this is for everyone! also you forgot APdRF he posted his results as you were posting yours. You should add him!

Thanks for the heads up, duly added APdRF's result. Sorry for the omission.

Title change and new posts linked from the first post for links to results and scrambles and graduations are incoming. Mike Hughey is kindly helping me with those changes which should be made in the next day or so. We have just been discussing the best way to achieve the changes.
