Round 64
1:22.06[o], 1:14.46[o], 1:12.29[o], 1:28.84[op], 1:17.77[p], 1:25.88[o], 1:10.00[p], 1:15.07[x], 1:16.55[p], 1:05.61[p], 1:17.35[x], 1:13.85[p]

Average - 1:16.53

I guess I'll join the race to sub 1 min. I usually average around 1:22 so this is good for me.
I got lucky with parity in the 2nd half.
 
Round 64: 53.63

52.97[OP], DNF(0.27), 54.80[OP], 55.71[P], 1:02.90[OP], 53.38[O], 46.61, 1:00.42[OP], 45.87[O], 53.69, 49.96[O], 44.69

DNF because I solved while this page was open >_>
Not bad average considering many parities and 2 counting sup-1s

Round 65 - Sub 1:30

Average - 1:40.62

Times
1:38.82, 1:33.79, 1:39.97, 1:40.61, 1:27.64, 1:40.29, 1:35.98, 1:30.60, 2:23.54, 1:46.58, 1:52.03, 1:47.50

Something weird happened during edge pairing in the ninth solve and I got totally lost. I never really recovered from that horrible solve.
 
Right, I'm joining this to aim for Sub-1. I'm using Yau on red cross.

1:26.20, 1:19.90, 1:33.11, 1:28.93, 1:31.81, 1:39.34, 1:36.69, 1:17.22, 1:34.66, 1:35.15, 1:32.30, 1:28.15

Comments: This is a terribly **** average. I suck at 4x4 and I need to totally retension and lube my cube.
 
Round 65:

50.81[OP], 44.34, 48.92[P], 54.62[OP], 53.28[P], 55.64[OP], 49.55[OP], 47.38, 54.06[OP], 55.46+[P], 1:01.38[OP], 58.43[OP] = 52.82

Ugh...7 double parities. Didn't do too well towards the end
 
Round 65 - Goal sub -2:00
Average: 1:50.90, GRADUATION!

1:52.88[DP], 1:54.72[OP], 1:46.86[DP], 1:22.66[PP], 2:00.53[DP], 2:14.90[DP], 1:34.71[PP], 2:02.99[DP], 1:47.59[OP], 1:51.36[NP], 1:56.85[DP], 1:40.49[NP]

Fails and too many parities:-(. Well, atleast I graduated from the sub -2 race!

Hi AndersB,

According to my records this is the second sub goal result with no results over the goal in between and consequently you still need another sub to graduate:-

Round 61: 2:16.21
Round 62: 1:46.10
Round 63: No Entry Time Recorded
Round 64: No Entry Time Recorded
Round 65: 1:50.90

However please do let me know if I have messed up the results in some way.

Meh, I checked it and you seem to be right... Don't know why I thought I had done it thrice, when I think about it now I have only done two which sucks.
Ah well, I'll graduate next time.
 
YATTAAA ! I finally handled in my huge school project today, I can cube again :D

So : Round 65 = 1:06.64
1:04.15 1:03.52 1:11.38 1:08.13 (1:12.96) 1:08.22 1:07.05 (58.90) 1:04.68 1:06.34 1:01.91 1:11.05

... and I am still wondering how the hell I did a sub-1 avg (and belgian NR) at dutch nationals in December, I'm really not that close to being sub-1 yet :p

Round 65

Average: 1:21.83


1:28.28, 1:24.72, 1:26.32, 1:14.92, 1:35.14, 1:15.30, 1:28.82, 1:19.56, 1:12.71, 1:20.12, 1:20.69, 1:19.53

What started as decidedly mediocre actually turned into a good average. Need to try and minimize the number of sup 1:25 solves and I need a few more warm ups too. Don't seem to get flowing on 4x4 until I have done 10 or so.

number of times: 12/12
best time: 1:12.71
worst time: 1:35.14

current avg5: 1:19.74 (σ = 0.27)
best avg5: 1:18.33 (σ = 2.16)

current avg12: 1:21.83 (σ = 4.73)
best avg12: 1:21.83 (σ = 4.73)

session avg: 1:21.83 (σ = 4.73)
session mean: 1:22.17

I guess I'll join the race to sub 1 min.

Nice to see a couple of the UK contingent participating and preparing for Rapidash 2012, game on! ;)
 
Haven't done 4x4 in a while and times have started slipping - need some motivation to practise again :p

1:24.48, (1:05.29), 1:14.71, 1:13.79, (1:26.21), 1:07.76, 1:17.01, 1:13.80, 1:22.43, 1:14.14, 1:23.96, 1:13.04 = 1:16.51

The 1:05 should've been like 1:00, but massive pause on PLL cause I couldn't work out if I had parity or not :fp
