Race to Sub-30 and Race to Sub 25

[DeeDubb]

Method: CFOP with 2-look OLL and full PLL, and color neutral

CFOP with Intuitive F2L (No Algs) 2 Look OLL and 4/5 PLL

If you are using your fastest method for this competition, you don't need to list the method, just say "speed" or nothing.

I list "OH CFOP" because I'm a Roux solver, so it's both OH and CFOP, though now my OH CFOP is faster than my OH Roux, so I should probably just switch and say "OH"

Thanks for letting me know. What do you mean by "Roux CFOP"?

Sorry, meant Roux OH, haha

3x3 Speed (CFOP, 3LLL)

Ao12: 26.45

25.16 (23.33) 26.56 25.63 25.56 27.81 24.18 23.68 27.01 (31.04) 28.14 30.73

The rolling Ao12 from before I started this round to #8 is my PB by half a second (25.60), so that's progress (I think)...

Round 77
Race to sub-30 OH
Average: 31.88

(40.75), 33.11, 25.32, 30.36, 30.92, 33.72, 33.74, 37.84, 31.56, 33.73, 28.49, (21.03)

A far cry from last week, unfortunately. Very nice single at the end though, albeit with a joke last layer (F R U R' U' F' + AUF)

 

[Tekeur]

Tekeur, it's nice to find someone who is around my speed online. Usually someone is either faster, or MUCH faster. Do you use intuitive F2L?

Well I started doing it intuitively but I'm trying to use more and more algs to solve it more efficiently (some I came up with, some I learned). (But even if I hadn't learned any algs, it all becomes muscle memory after a while so I don't think you could call that intuitive).

Round 77:

Race to sub 30
Average of 12: 00:27.35

12: (22.68)
11: 26.30
10: 28.87
9: 25.88
8: 26.66
7: 27.25
6: 26.95
5: 30.19
4: (43.54)
3: 26.48
2: 28.89
1: 26.04

As for the 43.54... Well when I got to the last pair I couldn't find the last edge of my pair, and then I realized it was on the bottom layer because I got my cross completely wrong, so yeah I lost a lot of time on that :/ .

Round 77:

Race to sub 30

Average of 12: 27.66

12: 31.96
11: 25.64
10: 30.32
9: 27.01
8: (20.13)
7: 30.31
6: 22.34
5: 30.06
4: 21.19
3: 31.01
2: 20.55
1: (35.05)

I was really upset with this average of 12. Granted it was right around my average times, but as you can see I went constantly back and forth between 20's and 30's. I was freaking out why couldn't I just get the 20's??? Then I realized that it was all the crosses and spotting pairs. It's still really frustrating to have that happen :/.

Hi. I just realised this thread existed. Will try to do a quick ao12 now.

Will probably be very slow as I just got back from the pub.

EDIT: I just did the first couple of solves and they were embarrassingly bad.

I think I'll come back to this when I'm sober.

Race to sub-30. Method: CFOP.

1 00:41.62
2 00:46.62
3 00:42.22
4 00:41.92
5 00:42.44

7 00:48.18
8 00:52.88
9 00:43.11
10 00:47.14
11 00:34.40
12 00:41.82

Straight average: 43.80 Average 10/12: 43.84

I guess I should be in the 'race to sub-40'.. if one existed.

I was getting averages quite a bit faster than that a couple of weeks ago, but since I learned all the main F2L cases my times have dropped quite a bit.

I guess they'll go back up eventually...
