I decided to make a breakdown

Sorry about the low quality. I left my tripod at my mom's.

Ok I can see them all now

So I have a competition tomorrow. I really hope I do well and if I get a sub-3 average I will probably make finals. It would be my first ever finals. I'm hoping for good luck because I don't know 8 CLL cases which means in an average of 5 solves I will most likely have 1 CLL I don't know and the other ones I will know and when that happens I usually get a low 3 average. For 3x3 and pyraminx, I want a better single, for skewb I want better average and single and for squan I want to remember my algs so I don't DNF. I will post my 2x2 results here.

Made 2x2 finals!

Also got an overall PB in skewb

Were you in group 4? I was in group 4 and scrambles were good, I also made finals.

No, I was in group 3. What is your WCA ID? Mine is 2022ROGE05

Mine is 2021RAME01 (Picture is bad lol)

I remember calling you while running! I also probably scrambled for you in 2x2 because I scrambled in group 4. Also a lot of the 2x2ers underperformed in that competition. On the psych sheet 12th place's PR was 3.10 and the actual 12th place average was 3.68. ALSO nobody got a PR in the finals.

EDIT: I also just realized that this comp broke my 4 competition record streak in which anyone got an NR, CR, or WR.

I just got a 0.48 2x2 stack matted PB single!

Ayo nice! Scramble?

I got .70 averaging like mid 4

Also here is the time on the stackmat

 

[Discomantis]

DNFed the ao12 in 6 solves

 

[Discomantis]

So I guess my 2x2 PB ao7 is better than my ao5 now...

This gave me 4 1.69 2x2 PB averages of 5. Screwed up the ao12.

And yes, this was keyboard cheated

 

[Discomantis]

Learned 2 U CLL's, which means that I have only 2 CLL's left! (If I said I had only H cases, that might be because I confuse the names for the U and H CLL's a lot on 2x2)

EDIT: Technically 1 CLL left if I mirror one of the algs

 

[Discomantis]

As of 5/15, I now know full CLL!

I do need to practice 4 of these algorithms though...

 

[Discomantis]

So I am going to start learning EG-1 now. I will start with the T set since it looks very easy. What I am going to do to learn all of EG-1 is I will learn some EG-1 algorithms, then do untimed solves to practice them. This will make it so I am not focused on times. Once I learn most of EG-1, I will go back to timed solves.

Edit red since I confused cases.
