Oh my goodness, do this every time I love it (and I subbed because of it.) You're the best, Brian. Best race thread.

Edit: Actually, more precisely it's best race host.

Round 72, Race to sub-25
3x3 Speed (CFOP, 3LLL)

Ao12: 27.77

24.85 29.01 28.09 26.17 27.47 27.72 (38.57) 31.49 25.35 28.82 28.73 (24.66)

A rather uneventful Ao12 other than misidentifying PLL for #7. This seems to be happening pretty often.

Wow, two days with a Guhong v2 and I've beaten my PB Ao12 by 1.5 secs (28.63 to 27.19)! Even the solves that I thought weren't so good were still 28.xx or 29.xx.

(@Brian: Yes, your last pronunciation is correct - (chronon)-(decay). A chronon is a hypothesised particle of time, which sounded quite cool to me 5 years ago, haha.)

Race to Sub-30 OH
Average: 31.25
34.30, 32.32, 27.08, (25.79), 33.14, 35.67, 31.44, (1:08.77), 31.25, 27.36, 28.25, 31.65

I suck at OH. The worst solve was going to be like 28-31.

That's the second time in a row that I've beaten my PB average of 12 in this. It feels like I've suddenly broken through a brick wall.

Alright, my first entry =) :

Round 74:

Race to sub 30
Method: CFOP with 2-look OLL and full PLL, also color neutral
Average of 12: 00:29.95

12: 00:28.90
11: 00:27.53
10: 00:30.82
9: 00:32.04
8: 00:28.64
7: 00:35.54
6: 00:30.84
5: 00:32.38
4: 00:27.89
3: 00:30.90
2: 00:29.26
1: 00:27.79

I'm satisfied with this average, although I messed up the cross quite badly on the 7th scramble (had to swap two edges) so this explains the 35 seconds...

Race to sub-25, round 74

Average: 24.14

Times: 23.97, (17.10), 23.47, 27.22, 24.61, 18.02, 23.62, 23.20, (28.48), 27.56, 23.02, 26.75

The Ao12 isn't a PB this week, but solves 2-6 make up my PB average of 5 (thanks to that counting 18). Almost there...

Race to sub-25, Round 74
3x3 Speed (CFOP, 3LLL)

Ao12: 27.74

27.77 27.73 29.40 26.63 29.14 27.75 24.89 (36.30) 29.57 27.02 (24.41) 27.51

Back from one week break to recover my wrists, though I'm not too sure it did much good... Anyway, I'm surprised my times didn't get worse!

All my screwups happened on one solve, so I guess that's good news for my average, heh. None of my times (except the worst one) was over 30, but none of my times (except the best one) was sub-25 either...

Edit: Okay, one of them was sub-25, but not by very much anyway...

 

[Lasse]

First Entry:
Race to sub-30:
3x3 Speed, CFOP, 3LLL
Average: 27.00 (σ = 2.57)

Time List:
31.46 28.62 29.33 28.02 23.83 (38.30) 24.89 (23.04) 25.72 23.74 25.85 28.56

The solves were okay, but not the best. I really need to improve my efficiency, recognition and look-ahead during F2L.
