How fast are you at 3x3?

I am basically Sub-12. It just varies on some days. I know full 2LLL, Full COLL, almost Full ELL (All but about 6 cases), some ZBLL, some OLLCP, some WV and VLS, etc. The 3 year anniversary of when I finally finished learning how to solve the cube was about a week ago (week ago [lol I know the meme is dead]). The 4 year anniversary of when I got my first cube was this past Wednesday.
 
Does anyone know if there is a difference between sub-x and having an average? Say if I said I was sub 10 seconds, which im not, would that mean my average is below 10 seconds? or above and around 10 seconds?

Also, why has their a difference between stackmat times and computer times?

It's a minimal difference that probably won't affect someone above 15 seconds or so, but the simple answer is that it takes a bit longer to reach the cube from a stackmat than when you do keyboard. With keyboard, you can have one hand on the spacebar and one hand on the cube when you start. I just use stackmat because it simulates competition, but either way is technically fine :D

My stackmat times are always significantly faster than keyboard, and this is because in the heat of max TPS I can never hit the space bar correctly to stop the solve. Every 2nd solve I miss the space bar and have to hit it again, losing lots of time.

If u use CStimer, you can stop the solve with any key

Also, does anyone know if you need to supply your own statckmat when you go to a comp?

Thing is, I've never been to a comp so I don't have an ID. I'll probably add my PB records sometime soonish
