2x2- lol got a 4.01 in finals
3x3- no, but I got a 7.69 single and 9.62 average, so not too bad.
5x5- bruh 4 pops and 2 n perms
pyra- no new pbs, but I don't really care
OH- not very good (18.91 and 19.36)
sq-1- 12.99 single makes up for the 19.27 average. Also had a timer reset, and if I didn't then the average would of been sub-18
kilo-35 single (overall PB) and 48 average with counting 57 wut

Melbourne Cube Days next weekend

2x2: lol. Just PB average I guess 4.47 average. Good enough for me.

3x3: I'm glad that 3x3's later into the day, less nerves. Sub 12 average, sub 10 single. Didn't help me much, still shook a lot. Got neither of these goals, can't say I'm suprised. 12.4 average and 10.5 single is okay for now.

4x4: Don't get a bad average. Also sub 50 single would be cool. Got 2 45 singles which is pretty cool, as well as a 53 average. Pleased with my performance in this event.

5x5: Sub 2 average Had a really good showing in this event. 1:42 single and 1:48 average with a counting 1:55+2. Still overall PB average :confused:

6x6: Depends how much I practise between then and now. Bare minimum, make hard cutoff. Made cutoff pretty comprehensively with a 4:12 single, not good enough for an average, but not disappointed. Double parity and lots of lockups in the solve too. I still have a long way to go in 6x6.

OH: Been practising this a fair amount, I still suck at turning. Just PBs. Really nice times in OH. NL 20.03 single and 22.2 average. Was not expecting that at all.

Really pleased with my performance this weekend. Hard not to be disappointed by getting so close to finals in so many events and not making any of them though. Had a blast, looking forward to the next one!

I thought I was quitting earlier this year, but I guess it was more of a Kevin Hays quit (lol)

Anyway, goals for TJHSST Fall 2016:
Finish my take-home physics exam due on the 21st so I actually have the time to go
3x3: sub-13.5 average, maybe sub-13 if I don't get too nervous
4x4: sub-50 average, beat pb single to keep that particular red-letter streak alive
OH: sub-25 average
BLD: sub-2 single would be nice, sub-1:40 would be sweet. I've really gotten into BLD recently

 

[WACWCA]

TJHSST Fall goals
3x3: sub 10 avg
4x4: sub 50 avg
OH: sub 23 avg again
Skewb sub 5.5 avg
Bld pb single like sub 2:45, maybe break my 3:00.00 mean

 

[joshsailscga]

TJHSST Fall goals
3x3: sub 10 avg

GJ, I judged a couple of those solves.

TJHSST Fall 2016:
3x3: sub-13.5 average, maybe sub-13 if I don't get too nervous LOL haven't touched a stackmat timer in a year, +2ed a decent solve, got 4 bad solves, 15.40 average. I ran the numbers, I missed round 2 (chance to redeem that average) solely because of the +2...
4x4: sub-50 average, beat pb single to keep that particular red-letter streak alive 49.55 average in round 2, pretty sweet. Beat single in first round but missed by <.5 in 2nd. Oh well, I don't really care now that I have actual decent times
OH: sub-25 average lel was on track but then I forgot how to N-perm on last solve and had a counting 28. Missed round 2 because of that...
BLD: sub-2 single would be nice, sub-1:40 would be sweet. I've really gotten into BLD recently 2/3 successes, including my first official attempt! had a 2:35 as well as a 2:20 that should have been a 1:50 (forgot corner memo for 30 seconds as verified by video of solve). Overall I'm pretty satisfied with that, for my first time BLDing

 

[GenTheSnail]

Updating goals I care about. All due before next year (Jan 1 2017).
BLD goals stay the same.

Algorithms:
Learn some easy ZBLLs, and a decent portion of 2GLL.
Some basic TTLL and a little TSLE. Maybe
And be able to do these algs OH and with Feet

super super basic BLD comms

3x3:
Sub-14.5 global average, with Blue/Orange front neutrality
Sub-13 Ao12
Sub-12 Ao5
Sub-11 Mo3
sub-9 single

OH:
Sub-20 global average
Sub-15 Ao5
Sub-12 single

Feet:

Sub-40 Mo3
Sub-35 single

Megaminx:
Sub-1:30 global average
Sub-1:20 Ao5
Sub-1:15 Mo3
Sub-1:10 single


These are a bit challenging, so hopefully I can practice focused and complete these goals.

 

[jonlin]

sub-50 4x4
sub-1:10 5x5

[DELToS]

My overall cubing goal is to be the first trans girl to make it into Finals for 3x3 at US Nationals

 

[oneshot]

[AlphaSheep]

Goals for the end of year comps in Johannesburg and hopefully Cape Town:

3x3: Sub 18 average, sub 15 single. No averages over 20. - No (18.33 average), No (15.47 single), No (only 5/7 averages sub-20)
OH: Sub 30 average, sub 25 single. No (30.20 average), No (25.61 single)
Pyra: Sub 10 average, single doesn't matter. Yes (8.12 average), Yes (single was good but didn't matter).

Overall: Keep up my unbroken PB streak for my 12th and 13th comps. Going to be difficult with both comps having so few events. Yes, comfortably (5 PBs at Johannesburg, 4 in Cape Town)

Next events to target are Megaminx and 3BLD.

Park Orchard is coming up soon:

2x2: Sub 4 average would be cool but I don't care that much

3x3: Sub 12 average, sub 10 single. Don't fail again.

4x4: Buy a Wuque

OH: I set the bar for myself pretty high with average last comp, looking for a sub 20 single this time.

Pyra: Couldn't care less.

Skewb: Single / average PBs.

Park Orchard is coming up soon:

Nope.

3x3: Sub 12 average, sub 10 single. Don't fail again.
11.91 average (about time). Still not 100% satisfied with it though, since it had a counting 12.56. Sub 10 single will have to wait for another time.

4x4: Buy a Wuque
Borrowed someone else's Wuque, so I guess I failed my goal. 42.99 single is super cool though.

OH: I set the bar for myself pretty high with average last comp, looking for a sub 20 single this time.
Surprised myself once again with a 22.53 PB average, still no sub 20 though.
Pyra: Couldn't care less.
6.61 average, 5.12 single. Eh.

Skewb: Single / average PBs.
Failed the average, but got a stupid 4.63 which should have been a 3.

Not quite the amazing performance of last comp, but certainly not bad. Particularly pleased with the 42 4x4 single, as well as finally breaking the sub 12 barrier in 3x3.
