Did you solve the same scramble twice?

R2 F' U2 L D' L' D' R D2 U2 F2 L' D2 L' D' B' U'

x y' R D R U R y L // Cross + preserve pair
U2 R' U' R // 1st pair
U' L' U2 L U L' U' L // 2nd pair
U L U L' // 3rd pair
R U' R' y' U' L' U L2 F' L' F // ZBLS
U' R U' R2 D' Rw U2 Rw' D R2 U' R' U' R U' R' U // ZBLL

49 moves/5.80s = 8.45 TPS

D' L D' U2 R2 U' B L U2 B2 R U R2 F2 D' U2 B'

x U' L' U2 L' D' R2 // Xcross
U2 L' U' L R U' R' // 2nd pair

R U' R' U' R U2 R' U R U2 R' // 4th pair + force 6-move OLLCP
F R U R' U' F' // OLLCP
R U R' U R' U' R2 U' R' U R' U R // PLL

46 moves/5.56s = 8.27 TPS

U' R2 B U' L' F' R D2 U L' F2 D2 R' F' D B' D' U'

y2 F L F' U2 R' D' R' // XXcross
L' U' L U' L' U L // 3rd pair
y' U2 L U' L' U L U' L' // 4th pair
F R U' R' U' R U R' F' // OLL
U2 x R2 F R F' R U2 r' U r U2 // PLL

42 moves/5.23s = 8.03 TPS

I probably spent way too much time on this, but hey, $100 is $100.

in your walls :3
Can one person win more than one of the $100 prizes?
Edit: also, are we allowed to scramble from any initial orientation to make it easier for the solver?

I didn't make a video, so I'm only entered for the "raffle".

Scramble 1: 31.42
Pretty good F2L, I used a SH to skip EO(I use 4lll)
Scramble 2: 24.02
Great time, smooth F2L. I got a dot for EO.
Scramble 3: 21.55
One of my best times ever. Ridiculously smooth F2L, I got to use a T-Perm(one of three PLL's I know)

Solve #3 was done on green cross, I do white. It was an overall easy scramble anyway.
But things like edge orientation and solved blocks usually help all colors. E.g. "tried to solve blue xx-cross ended up doing red xxx-cross."
