3x3x3 BLD: Have sub50 more often.

MultiBLD: Solve more than 15 cubes on comp.
Did you mean sub60, or sub50? Either way its still crazily fast!

15 cubes BLD would be great! How long do you think it would take?
 
Goals? Well:

1. Average Sub-16 on the 3x3x3 by the end of the year
2. Average Sub-40 on the 3x3x3 One Handed by the next few months.
3. Be able to solve 3 3x3x3s in a row in under 60 seconds.
4. Be able to average under 1min 50 sec on dual solving(two cubes, one in each hand).
5. Average under 2 minutes on the 4x4x4
6. Try to get pretty good at some other puzzles besides the cube-type stuff.

There's mine.
 
Alright, time to put together a more structured list.
By the end of June
Sub-3 or 3.5 BLD
sub-23 or so 3x3 Avg (I would like sub-20, but it's not going to happen)
sub-2:30 4x4 (I stink at it :\)
Do a 2 cube multi-blindfold (just tried and failed miserably)
Solve 4x4 BLD

By the beginning of September (when school starts up again)
Sub-20 3x3 Avg.
Sub-2 3x3 BLD
Sub-1.4 Magic
Do 4+ cubes in multi-blindfold
Solve 4x4 and 5x5 BLD (in competition would be nice)

Don't have times yet for big cubes blindfolded because I haven't attempted them yet. However, I understand how to solve centers and edges with commutators, after talking last night with dbeyer on IRC. Memo is a whole different problem...I think I *might* be able to memorize 4x4 the same way I do on 3x3 (tapping the pieces in succession), but if not, I'm thinking of letter pairs, where the first letter identifies the layer/center and the second letter identifies which piece in the layer/center (and then having the pairs put to a story).

Anyway, I would also like a few new/better puzzles, pieces and whatnot, but they're not really goals. When I get a minx, spare parts for my 5x5, and a new 2x2, I'll add goals for them to this list.
 
Okay here we go. All of them are longterm goals, I don't want to make myself crazy ;)

3x3
Avg Sub 20 constantly (of 100 would be nice)
Master Advanced-PLL-Recognition
Get the Sub 15 Avg (it has time)
Be able to get Sub-3 BLD times constantly.

4x4
Avg under 90 seconds (and then we'll see)
Solve it Blindfolded


Get solid skills on the following:
2x2 (sub 6), 5x5(sub 3min), Megaminx (Sub 3min), Clock (Sub 15), OH 3x3 (sub 50), Square 1 (at least the ability to solve it), Magic, Solve a 20x20
 
well my goals are not as low as yours but still.
3x3 avg sub 35 (need ten more sec)
best sub 22
be able to solve it bld
4x4 sub 160
5x5 sub 5min
i also wont to learn the rest of the oll and pll algs so that i can do a 2-look ll. and improve my f2l a lot. these goals are for the end of summer.
 
My current goal is to become fluent with Heise f2l. A subgoal is to become color neutral. In general, my goal is to be able to take advantage of lucky/easy cases.
 
Here are my goals for the Worlds:
2x2
Average: sub-6 seconds
3x3
Average: sub-19 seconds
I was targeting sub-17 but I realize I don't have that much time to practice
3x3 OH
Average: sub-50 seconds
3x3 BLD
Single: sub-4 minutes
4x4
Average: sub-1:45 minutes
It's possible if I don't mess up my edges like in San Diego
Pyraminx
Average: sub-9 seconds
But I have to repair my pyraminxes, I ordered 3 from Meffert 2 are already "broken"

At the US Open:
2x2
Average: sub-7 seconds
3x3
Single: sub-17 seconds
Average: sub-21 seconds
 
My only goal right now is to get a sub-20 avg with Roux (so close). I figure I'll get it after this summer. I eventually want to move into non-matching Roux blocks, but I need to get the basics down first. When I get bored with Roux I will move into color neutral Petrus or maybe direct solves on larger cubes.
 
Since I have just found this thread now, and my summer is more than half way over, I'll post my end of the year goals.

3x3x3
Sub-18. Consistently. I'll be happy on new year's day, if I can always average a sub18. (most important goal)
OH - Sub-30
BLD - Sub-3 min solves. And improve my success rate by a lot. Right now, it's like, 15-20%.

4x4x4
Sub-80. We'll see how long that takes.
And, eventually BLD, but I doubt I have time for it this year.

And a goal I've had since I started learning Fridrich:
A solid, consistent sub15 average before I graduate. I graduate in June 2009.
