Before this year is out:
3x3: More sub-20s than the single one that I have now (19.89), maybe a sub-20 average?
4x4: A sub-1:00 single
Really the only two puzzles I'm really active with right now.

Right, so let's see how I did.
3x3: successful!
I now have over 100 sub-20 solves, a 12.94 single (on cam!), a 17.52 Ao5, and a 19.44 Ao12.
4x4: lol nope
Personal best is 1:10, and I just don't care enough to get good at Yau.

 

[Daniel Lin]

new goals
deadline: jan 1 2016 2017

3BLD: sub 20 PB fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
4BLD: sub 3 PB no. I did get extremely close but my 4x4 is broke
3x3: sub 10 PB nope. I've plateau'd with CFOP and I'm a noob at Roux

 

[gateway cuber]

sub-1 4x4 (I'll have to learn some funky edge pairing stuff I guess cuz centers are already almost sub-10)

get good at Roux it's be cool to be as fast with roox as with cfop so I can use them both.

get a good official 2x2 and pyra avg (cuz they're the only events I care about.)

get better at BLD cuz I'm bad

maybe learn petrus just so I can say I know 4 methods + BLD and beginners

deadline february 25th (besides the official stuff that can go till like april)

Time to set new goals for end of the year. Not very ambitious as I won't have much time to practise:
3x3: sub-18 Ao50 Changed to sub-20 Full CN - Partially. At least got some Full CN sub-20 Ao12 on the RTS20 thread
4x4: graduate from race to sub-1:20 - Fail, still averaging around 1:23 global
5x5: graduate from race to sub 3:15 [DONE Nov 27th] Reviewed to "graduate from race to sub-3min". - Failed the sub-3min on the 3rd round

Now new goals for summer 2017:
2x2: Keep trying to graduate from RTS 5.00 or at least maintain my current sub-5.5 level. [No progress, probably going a bit over 5.5 already due to lack of practise]
3x3: Globally sub-20 Full CN once and for all, so I'm not going to put any Goals for sub-18 Dual White/Yellow any more. [Ongoing but not quite there yet as of April 11th]
4x4: Graduate from RTS 1:20 [DONE Feb 3rd, RTS 1:15 DONE March 4th], Globally sub or close to 1:15. (current PB Ao100 1:22.xx) [DONE 1:14.61 Ao100 Feb 24th]
5x5: Graduate from RTS 2:45 [Almost done (2/3)], Globally sub or close to 2:40 (current PB Ao100 2:58.xx) [Almost done, 2:41.32 Ao100 March 25th]
6x6: Get closer to equivalent 4x4 and 5x5 times (that would be at least sub-6:00 globally, current PB single 7:20.xx) [Ongoing, PB single 5:28.59 April 1st, not yet sub 6:00 global]
7x7: (Added on April 11th) Sub 10min single. [Not yet practising 7x7]
3BLD: Re-learn M2/OP, get maybe a sub-6min success? (current PB 7:26.xx) [No progress yet, as of April 11th]

 

[G2013]

4x4 official sub42 avg
3BLD some official sub1s
4BLD official success
Being able to attend to a FMC comp!!!! Sometime???
5BLD success anywhere, idc if it's official or not
Improve at pyraminx

These are my goals for this year regarding cubing but I don't think I'll be able to fulfill them all due to lack of ability of going to comps :/

Goals that were for 2016:

BLD goals for the end of the year:
3BLD: Sub-3 single, Sub-4 mean Single, didn't practice enough to get that many successes

4BLD: Learn, Success, Sub-30m Learn, DNFs, attempts have been ~22

5BLD: Learn, Practice lots, Sub-hour attempts Learn, 3 times a week for weekly comp last 4-5 weeks, ~50m attempts + 1 sub-50

6BLD: Consider learning lol Learned, no attempts yet

MBLD: 8 points, Sub-50m still 5/5, no 6/6, largest attempt was 3/7 1:08

Official stuffs too if I can. No more comps in 2016
IDK what my next comp is, or what it would be holding.

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. Not really, I know 50 ZBLLs, though most are COLLs + recognized epll skip
Some basic TTLL and a little TSLE. Maybe LOL ZBLL is the way to go
And be able to do these algs OH and with Feet Yep, got a 44-near-Feet-PB with a ZBLL

super super basic BLD comms No, I wanna learn ZBLL and mega PLL first. OP/M2 is good enough for now. I use some pure flips though

3x3:
Sub-14.5 global average, with Blue/Orange front neutrality 14.3 YB 16.4 YO Though I've had a couple really good singles with YO
Sub-13 Ao12 nope
Sub-12 Ao5 nope
Sub-11 Mo3 nope
sub-9 single nope

OH:
Sub-20 global average eh, at least sub-22
Sub-15 Ao5 still 15.x from forever ago
Sub-12 single was way too ambitious, 13.19

Feet:
Sub-1 global average with Indo sigh, ~1:05, only broken pb was ao100
Sub-40 Mo3 so, no
Sub-35 single and no

Megaminx:
Sub-1:30 global average lol sub-1:25
Sub-1:20 Ao5 1:18.60
Sub-1:15 Mo3 1:17.25
Sub-1:10 single 1:10.69


These are a bit challenging, so hopefully I can practice focused and complete these goals. Not very focused

Fairly happy with this year, much more improvement than I thought I would be able to achieve, even if I hardly made any of these goals.


Goal for the end of the week (saturday jan 7):
Learn S/AS COLL
