Fun comp, pretty pleased with everything except 3x3 finals and 2x2. Really nice 27 single for one hand and good singles and a good average for 4x4. Austin Moore had a very awesome 8.18 Roux solve that no one applauded. Poor guy.

Nice first comp. I failed at my first few events because of my nerves but still did ok. For every solve for 3x3 I improve from the one before because I was getting less nervous. Actually I improved so much my last solve was almost half of my first solve (26 vs 44). I ended up with a 32 average which is kind of on the bad side (I average 28ish) but it was my first competition. My 32 placed me 20th and 2 places short of the finals which I might of gotten into with a normal average but it was still fun. I also had fun learning how to scramble and judge which is what I did for 5x5 and 3x3 finals. All my other event were pretty normal averages so I was ok with them.

Fun competition - thanks John for hosting it!

Congrats to Mike for the BLD times!

hug hey O_o

Thanks! They weren't even particularly easy scrambles - kind of easy, but not super easy. And yes, I finally won a 3x3x3 BLD event! And it also puts me back on the success streak list. Just great all around!

I think all those scrambles we've been having in the blindfold race really helped. (I've done about 50 for the latest one; I need to try to enter them soon.)
