[CrossPetrus]

Wow 9 sub-20s !

Yeah I literally got 2 dnfs off of a perms (I got a dnf from messing up e perm after the ao12), and then went on a run, and I was just watching this play out, being like, come one, give me an ao12 before this stops, come on.
Edit: I got a 21.10 ao100

I didn't cube for a week but I still think I am (barely) the fastest in this comp. I don't think I'm going to win though ya'll are improving so fast lol (I haven't gotten a new ao12 PB in a month).
