What does being sub-15 mean to you?

lol Ive been cubing since January and average 18-19. Makes me feel slow haha. But I am better at other cubes than most people my speed (mainly just bigger cubes) since I focused on that relatively early in my cubing career.

I hate myself because I can't look ahead.

Neither can I.

If you can please rephrase that/. Sub 15 is averaging less than 15 seconds that is 14.99 and below. I average 15.8x solving just white so that is what I meant my almost sub 15. I am CN and I average high 17s with it so in that case I am not almost sub 15.

You are not CN if you have a difference in solve times with other colours.

??? Only my white is fastest, other 5 colours have similar times. In timed solves, I do all colours except white.

Then you are not CN. You should get similar times using all six colors. Even cyoubx is sub 15 CN but averages 11-12 with white. That doesn't make him CN.
