Did 43 5x5 solves. I haden't solved a 5x5 in about a month and found I had gotten alot faster. Session average was 2:12 with a 1:50 single both PB's.

Nice! That's about the same as my 10of12...I'd better get practising OH hand again. Might as well post an accomplishment while I'm at it: Decided to pick up my 5x5x5 for the first time since my failures at the Bristol Open in November, and got pbs for 10 of 12 2:32.xx (previous 2:43) and single pb 2:19.96 (previous 2:28). Seems like not practising is good...

I F-IIs.

I know you do...and thanks to you I got one a month ago...and now I love them!

Mike Hughey sub-20? Could it be the end of the world? Or perhaps it's just Fate's reward for my giving up full participation in the weekly competition? In any event, I'm in total shock. I thought I'd never see this day.

I actually don't think any of these were lucky (although all of the average of 5 were very easy). I may have just not noticed something falling together, though. I couldn't believe it while it was happening.

So is the unthinkable possible? Could I actually manage a sub-20 average 10/12 someday? Could I actually average sub-20 someday? I guess we'll have to wait and see. But I actually hold some hope now.

Not yet, 32.66 single
But so many 19's in there...consistency on the sub 20 end!

 

[Mike Hughey]

Not yet, 32.66 single

Yep - I'm afraid I still get a lot of those. 5-pair F2Ls and such. I think that one was a 3-look OLL. (Recognize the first OLL and start into it, realize you can't do it because you've temporarily forgotten it for some strange reason - even though you've done it quickly and successfully 10 or 20 times in the past few days - then undo it and do a 2-look.) I just can't seem to avoid making big mistakes.

Yeah, the good solves just kept popping up. I'm not sure just how easy the scrambles are, but I know the seventh solve was ES skip, but then I had parity (W-U, which is three look for me).
