Final (4th round) average of Aachen Open 2011. I won the competition!!! :)
First solve (7.52) had a PLL skip and is also the German single NR.
Individual times:
(7.52), 9.38, (18.55), 9.00, 10.09 = 9.49
7th in the world for single and average as of the uploading date.

Thanks to Baschtel for judging and Lassilein for uploading. :)


The other sub-10 avg (9.66) and some other videos (BLD) will follow soon.

Congrats, amazing solves :)

Excuse the stupid question, I'm not familiar with competition rules: can you force a DNF after a pop to improove your average? I mean, after a DNF the following highest time is the one that is used for averaging?

One DNF: Your worst solve is DNF and therefore taken out from the average
More than one DNF: You get a DNF average.

To cut it short: No. :p

Ok so if I understood correctly, one can force a DNF so that a bad solve (not the DNF one) is taken out of the average then.
Then again, you risk to have another DNF and be f***d. Am I correct?

No, you can choose to give up and take the DNF if you have a pop(or on any other solve for that matter) but a DNF is always considered to be a worse result than any completed solve. If you have one DNF, that would be the solve which is not counted(along with your fastest time). If you have 2 DNF's, then your overall average result is a DNF. Either way, there is no way taking a DNF will ever improve your average time.
 
Wow your incredible under pressure! Even the NR single didn't distract you for the rest of the average.
