Yep nothing to lose by a few days on blue. Thanks. And yes I'm a fan of jskyler's vids too, but where has he got to recently? Did the haters put him off? Hey jskyler - can we have a G-perm vid, please?

Right - for your merry amusement, here is my first ever CN average. I did 16 solves alternating the four non-W/Y colours.
1:13, 1:26, 1:26, 1:30, 1:09; 1:15, 1:02, 1:18, 1:05, 1:13, 1:20, 1:24, 1:03, 1:17, 1:06, 1:12 - mean 1:15.42
Compared to white cross average of 45.09. So when you said my times would get worse at first, no kidding! I was going to keep going until my first sub-1:00, but ran out of patience. Strangely, 1:15 was what I got when I first ever took a 3x3 average back in October, so, switching cross colour is like going right back to square one! (although I know I'd improve faster of course).

LOL.. merry amusement.. Well, you have established a null point measurement.. I will be very curious to see what happens if you dedicate to CN for a few days.

I have to add, the first couple of solves back on white crosses were weirdly disorienting. It was like I'd forgotten my colour filter.

I have no idea how they do it. Even I took breaks when I did that 50 today.. 50 is a BIG exception for me to do, today was the first time ever as I didn't feel like stopping at 12 solves..
I don't have kids, so that helps!

Awww Marcel, your kid is sooo cute!
And about the Ao100s... it's a lot easier when you're faster because it takes a lot less time.
