[Skullush]

I won't be competing for now because I no longer have a decent pyraminx. I just wanted to let you know that it has nothing to do with the formatting of the race. I'm back in as soon as I get another puzzle

[Mike Hughey]

I'm sick of being so bad at pyraminx, so I've been practicing a little; I figured I'd compete this week. I'm not sure if I'll make it every week, but since I had time, here it is this week. I figure I'll go for sub-12 since my best average in competition was just over 12, and that was with incredibly lucky scrambles.

Race to sub-12

14.59, (10.93), 11.77, 16.77, 12.11, 13.83, 14.80, 11.36, 14.46, 15.30, 16.36, (18.90) = 14.14
9.78, 13.43, 16.31, 14.66, 10.50, 10.75, 12.65, (34.53), 12.25, 10.80, 12.09, (7.19) = 12.32
16.90, 8.53, 13.27, 9.96, 11.56, (17.81), 11.91, 11.52, (9.72), 10.83, 15.06, 11.21 = 12.19

Mean of 3: 12.88

That's actually quite a major improvement for me! I've finally gotten where I'm able to use keyhole or Oka interchangeably depending on which looks best. I still mess up Oka sometimes because I don't do well enough looking ahead to avoid the bad case.

I know, you'd figure I would be half this time with a nice method like that, but that's typical of me with all puzzles, not just pyraminx.
