Thank you Mark, you are doing a great job. I am a little confused right now. I looked for a progres, but I think there's a regres in my times. I stuck after the cross for few seconds till I find a first pair. And I think I have to practice F2L - it looks so slow beacause I do a lot of regrips. Sometimes my look ahead is fine, but next day it's very poor. I've started solving with metronome...

I would like to try myself in this race and see how my stats look like for each step.
I think it wouldn't be a problem If I join in round 9 ?
If it would be then ignore me, if not then I'd be happy to join.

Cross + 1: 8.57
11.33, 9.04+, 7.97, 7.31, 8.80, 11.87, 6.70, (3.35), 11.27, DNF(8.73), 5.01, 6.37 That 3.35 was good, but the average was bad.

Pairs: 12.97
11.37, 13.89, 10.66, (21.01+), 10.94, 13.94, 14.17, 13.10, 14.91, (10.58), 13.41, 13.34

LS + LL: 10.03 so close to sub 10 :(
(15.11), 8.52, 9.92, 8.47, 9.41, 9.53, 13.05, 11.68, 9.67, 10.37, (7.92), 9.72

All of these were horrible except for the LL portion, so at least there is a good part. My solve times haven't been getting much better lately, they have just stayed the same.
 
17 second average with 12 second F2L and 5 second LL? That's... nothing like me :p My splits are usually 9/6 or 8/6. That just shows how badly I did on the F2L part.

Round: 10
Cross+1: 3.45, 4.14, 3.59, 3.93, 4.17, 3.25, 5.73, 5.47, 3.63, 6.63, 3.79, 7.84 = 4.45
Pairs: 5.79, 6.10, 5.40, 6.08, 5.13, 5.89, 6.73, 5.41, 5.65, 6.57, 5.15, 7.76 = 5.88
LSLL: 8.37, 6.57, 6.81, 4.26, 4.49, 6.14, 5.12, 6.25, 6.83, 5.36, 5.27, 7.23 = 6.01

Round 10

Cross + 1: 5.17
4.50, 4.86, 6.08, 5.32, (3.37), 4.44, 5.71, 6.31, 4.43, 3.80, 6.27, (6.36) - save the worst for last! :p

Pairs: 8.31
7.86, 9.28, (7.27), 7.51, 7.89, (9.81), 8.08, 7.89, 8.81, 8.05, 9.24, 8.41

LL+LS: 7.53
6.20, 7.50, 7.65, (5.73), 7.50, 8.88, 7.11, 9.34, 6.94, 7.20, 6.93, (9.81)

LS+LL slower than last week, pairs about the same, cross a little faster. I think this is as much down to session-to-session variance as it is down to any improvement!

Mark - would it be possible to have some kind of progress graph, as per the Marcel's Bar comp, with individual lines to show each person's progress for each area (i.e. up to 8 separate graphs - a tall order but I'd be interested to be able to gauge my progress in all 8 columns of the results!).

:D

Yeah I considered that and definitely want to include something to show progress over time. The only reasons I didn't are lack of time and lack of meaning with only two samples. Expect something with next results, or the week after.

I would say, your pairs are just fine. Concentrate on your last layer :)

I meant they were awful compared to my usual times. :) I'm used to the fact that my last layer is really bad compared to my F2L, haha. But, you're right. And the main reason I'm at this thread is to work on last layer.
