So, I think I can now shamelessly claim that I'm sub-17 :p

And I broke my PB in the process:
Average: 15.61
Standard Deviation: 0.94
Best Time: 13.68
Worst Time: 17.71
Individual times: 15.72, 16.22, 17.28, (13.68), (17.71), 15.96, 14.96, 14.21, 16.02, 16.18, 15.52, 14.00

If it doesn't appear stupid to you, I hope it inspires you. What doesn't kill you improves your times ;)

I smell RSI. And it doesn't smell good. (Wonder how Andrew Kang did his 24 hour cube marathon thingy...)

Congratulations. I don't have that kind of endurance. 100 solves at once is already pushing it for me. How long did this take?
 
100 used to be normal for me, before exams :p Now it's exam season so I rarely get the time to do even 30 :( Exams sorta ended yesterday (more papers coming after a week long break), so I decided to reward(?) myself :)

I'm not sure how long it took, but I'd say slightly more than 4 hours? I just multiplied the average with the number of solves, then added (20 seconds of scramble + inspection time)*400. I took a 10 minute snack break at 202 though, don't ask why it's 202, I just had a strong urge to eat something after that solve :p

The most I've ever done before this was 200, and I've only done it once.
 
Isn't it just a British/American English thingy? (e.g. defence/defense?)
 
I did an average of 200 yesterday... on 2x2 :P
I broke my average of 12 by 0.12
Average: 3.59
1.03 (5.75) 3.46 4.58 3.64 (0.94) 3.56 5.48 5.08 3.74 3.37 1.93
:D

Well done on doing such a big average!
 
Whoa.... that inspires me to do like a 500 average as soon as a I finish my summer work T.T... but for now ill do like a 50 or sumtin But yeah really great job!

your worst time is 17.71? Really? In 600 solves you didnt once apply the wrong OLL/PLL, or screwed up something on the F2L?
Click to expand...

hmm.. I think he meant that is one of the 10 solves average's worst time in the process of that 400 solves?

I wish I could solve 400 solves a day... I only solve around 30~100 times per day(holiday/weekends)...weekdays maybe 0 times~30 times.. sad =( don't have so much free time to cube.. big exam is coming in few months time..

Someone should set aside a couple of days for nonstop cubing, and do an average of about 5000

(If anyone wants to try that, make sure you do it in front of a video camera so everyone can see it, even though it would have to be like 100 videos.
