Goals Thread

From where I am now, Roux seems to be the easiest method to get sub-10. My splits are all roughly a second higher than what I think they should be for sub-10, so I'm going to focus on them one at a time.

Goal: Take one second off my FB. Aim for ~2 second average, and be able to plan it in inspection at least 90% of the time. Total average solve time sub-13.
Deadline: November.

global average goals by nov. 7
3: sub 12.4
2: sub 4.0
pyra: sub 8.9
4: sub 1:10.0
5: sub 2:25.0
skewb: sub 13.5
oh: sub 45.0

averages at KCubing:
3: 12
2: 4
Pyra: 9
4: 1:10
5: 2:30
Skewb: 14
OH: 48

The official goals may differ from the global goals because a) I get lucky at the event* b) It has multiple rounds, I have a higher chance of achieving it or c) I rarely practice the event so I don't really care what I get

*I know that there is no such thing as being consistently lucky. However, during some events I just do better than normal for whatever reason during comps
 
Learn perfectly the Friedich Method to beat a friend in speed.
(He uses beginner method, but goes pretty quick, 47s)
So you can say i'm a Mad Solver when he manages to beat me
 
and yet lse is your best step....

i've gotten used to how to scramble quickly. it usually doesnt take me any more than 6 seconds.

yeah, i don't know, i always feel like my lse sucks with all these pauses and inefficiencies, but somehow it's relatively good. but i think tdm's lse is very good considering he's 13 seconds roux?

My LSE could be improved, but I think it's around 3.5-4. I average 13.5-14 with Roux.

E: Been doing some LSE solves, seem to be averaging 3.4 with no inspection. Usually I have an idea of what my EO will be in a solve, but I may not be concentrating so much unless I'm aiming for speed, so this is probably a good estimate of what I'd get in a solve.

E2: Actually, since it's 11pm now I'm probably a bit faster most of the time.
