Goals for Cubelonia 2017:

2x2: sub5, second round
3x3: sub15, second round, pb single
4x4: sub1:15, second round
5x5: pb single
6x6: pb single
OH: sub22, final, sub20 single
BLD: mean, pb single
Feet: can't compete, sprained foot >.<
Pyra: sub8, final, pb single
Mega: sub2:00
MBLD: compete, 4 points
FMC: sub34
4BLD: success
5BLD: success

Light goals, I'm not under pressure this time as I have more comps soon.
Also I didn't train any event except OH and 3x3 for a few months, so I really only care about those.

Did I say light goals? xD Once again I failed almost everything!
FMC was 29 DNF 29 when my home pb is just 29; my brain somehow got shut down during the second attempt, I'm pretty sure with mediocre insertions it would have been a 35 or better which would have gotten me top100 world. T_T
In general I got dominated by cold fingers and turned off look ahead.

I guess PBs are okay as long as you don't get sub me. I want to stay with sub-20 nemessisessi what is the plural of nemesis?

A goal to remain on topic:

And like get sub-55 maybe?

My PB single at home is 1:15, so you should be fine (then again, my PB in comp was overall PB when I got it, so who knows?).
