Why are the best average and the current average different?

I went to CCT to see if was just easy scrambles. NOPE! THIS IS SO GREAT! I've only got 2 sub-20 averages of 12 on tape, and here i am sub-17.5! WHAT A NIGHT.

 

[IamWEB]

So earlier today, I was happy about an 18.11 average and posted the times. Not my PB, but great.

Much later on, I was racing someone on rubetimer.com, and did amazing. Average was 17.24, THAT's a PB!

I went to CCT and did another average, 17.38. =D

(All of these are averages of 12)

I got the camera to make a video, I was doing the best I've ever done!

After 4 or 5 attempts at a good average, I couldn't even average sub-21... WHY? WHY? <_<

So I took a break to get a snack, and then I decided to do one more average (it's after 2 in the morning...)

Guess what it was? 15.88!!!

This is unbelievable.



EDIT: Another average, 16.03!!! My hands felt a little tired though, but wow I'm doing so great.
I started scrambling before I realized the average was done, and the RA of solve 2-13 was 15.96!!!

This is more of a failure than an accomplishment. Earlier, I began recording solves. These were the first 5:

1. 11.44 U' L R U2 L' R B' F' R D F R' U' F' R D U L2 U' L' R' D' U' F D
2. 21.05 B' F2 U' R F' D2 U' L2 R' F D' L2 R U' B2 F2 U B2 F' D' L R' D U2 F'
3. 12.34 L' R' F2 D B F2 D2 U2 B2 F2 D' L' B2 D F D2 U2 B' F2 D U2 L U2 B L2
4. 11.33 L D F2 L F D F D U' L' R2 D' U B' R' U' L R' D2 U' L' R' D' U F2
5. 11.59 D' U B F' D' U2 B' D U' L2 D' B2 D B' D2 R2 B' F D B U2 R' D2 B2 F2

So yeah, pretty good, but the 21 was an absolute disaster. I thought "well, it's ok, that can just be the solve that doesn't count". So I continued...

6. 12.13 L U2 L R' D2 U2 B F' U' L F2 R D U B2 F L' R2 D' U2 B D' R' D U'
7. 11.74 L' B D' U2 B2 L2 R2 D2 U2 L' R2 D2 B F2 U2 F U R B' D U2 F' R U R2
8. 10.36 F2 L2 R B F' L F L2 F L2 D2 U2 L2 B' U2 F U F' R' D' U F2 L2 D2 U'
9. 19.99+ L2 R' B' L R2 F' D L R' B' D2 U2 L R D' U B' L' R F U' L' F2 L2 U
10. 11.10 B2 F L2 R2 D' F' D' B2 F2 L F L B L2 R' B2 F2 U L' F2 R2 F' L2 R U

next three solves were good and then BAM! 17.99 with a plus 2. That was really crushing, but then the next solve went really well. At the point of the 11.10 I believe I had an 11.55 avg of 5 (I might publish that later), so I was relatively happy. The session average at that point was very high; I knew I'd have to get some pretty good solves next to get a sub 12 average... And how I failed:

11. 14.62 L' F' D' L2 B F2 D2 U B2 F R' B2 R D U' F' L2 R U' L' R2 B R B2 F2
12. 13.54 R U2 L R' F' D' U2 B F2 L2 R' B F' D2 R D2 U R2 B F2 D U F L R'
13. 15.76 D F2 R2 D2 R D2 U' B' U2 B2 L D2 B2 D2 L B U2 R2 B F2 D U R' D2 U
14. 12.01 U L U B' L2 R2 B' F L U' B' F R' U' B' F' U L' R F D' U' L D U'
15. 13.03 D L' R' B2 R D' U L2 D U' F' L' R2 B2 F' R' U2 F' D U' L R' B2 L R2

Yup. Pretty awful. Solves 13-15 were attempts to roll out the 21.

I was so, so disappointed. If I hadn't had that 19s solve, and it was just an ordinary 12 or something, and if those last two solves had been low 12s too, then I would've had an 11.xx average of 12 on tape...
Damn.
