[Andrew Ricci]

You truly are insane....I wish I could improve fast :/

I guess here's my pathetic accomplishment.

7.21 NL single, and 9.37 average of 5.

Don't say that, you're improving quickly as well! It was only about a month ago when you thought you'd never have a sub 10 Ao12.

 

[Evan Liu]

Ao100 and Ao12 are PB. Sub 10 Ao100 in only a year and 4 months of cubing.

Insane... congrats!
I hope to meet you at MIT Spring 2012.

Sub 10 Ao100 in only a year and 4 months of cubing.

Awesome job. You make me feel old and slow

Insane... congrats!
I hope to meet you at MIT Spring 2012.

Thanks! Don't be afraid to say hi, you'll recognize me if you've seen my videos.

@ QQWref Thanks so much, but I wouldn't say that. You destroy me at computer cubes.

This...

Princeton was a fail. You failed one of your goals of Princeton Andrew...you never met Ryan Reese.

Dude. Either you screw up in competition, or you improve really fast.

Dude. Either you screw up in competition, or you improve really fast.

It's both. :3

I've been to two competitions.
First competition: I averaged ~30 at home. I got a 35.82 average.

Second competition: I averaged ~14 at home. I got a 16.48 average.

Also notice the gap between the times of my first and second competitions. Most of that improvement was also done over the course of ~1 month (and then sub-15 in another month).

 

[Hershey]

It's both. :3

Oh lol. Also, I just realized, your sub 10 average (9.81) is .02 less than http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Fr4uwELlPY&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL (Big Green's old roux average). You must be the 2nd fastest roux user behind Big Green I think. That is just awesome.

I knew you were fast, but I didn't realise you were sub-6. Please win an Australian comp.

Edit: So fail:
(1.58), 3.00, 1.58, 1.78, (4.31) = 2.21

Edit: 1.97, 2.52, 2.02, 2.90, 2.03, 2.09, 1.65, 2.38, (3.43), 1.58, 1.55, (1.43) = 2.07
PB is 2.06. Very lucky. Last 5 solves is 1.84 avg5.
