Round 110
Race to sub 30 - Roux

I got so close

avg of 12: 32.07

1. 29.66
2. 31.81
3. (53.28)
4. 33.50
5. (23.66)
6. 44.00

8. 30.91
9. 45.75
10. 27.14
11. 24.87
12. 24.32

I failed so hard on the 3rd solve, I had to redo my blocks like 3 times. But I got a new PB on both single and avg5, so im pretty happy with this

Average = 50.00

Individual Times
1. 49.76
2. 42.79

11. (38.26) PB
12. 52.11

Figured I would join in. I have been playing around with it for fun and never seriously attempted to improve my times. I got so nervous and I hope I will be steadier the next time round. Still got a PB (non-lucky) and the first time I ever got a sub-40, so :tu.

 

[un5poiled]

Glad you joined, I think the races are helping me!

Cheers - looks like you're almost there! Looks like I didn't get added to the graph first time ... maybe next time?

Strange maybe he overlooked you. I showed up the first week.

You're persistent to finish the 1 min. Did you mess up a perm or something and have to redo a lot? When that happens to me I DNF. Good job!

 

[muchacho]

A CMLL that went terribly wrong, I had to redo almost everything, I usually don't DNF (not anymore), but if that was the last solve instead of the first I would probably have not finished it

Bad night. Nervous start, tried too hard to bring it back, failed
Solve 10 my eyes lit up with easy xcross on green, then messed up LL. I gotta relax.

Hope I will be added this week Can my first attempt last week please be added as well - it was missed?

Round One Hundred Ten​

Jason Green graduates this week in the race to sub 30 and CubePro graduates in the race to sub-25. Congratulations to everyone who participated!

Hope I will be added this week Can my first attempt last week please be added as well - it was missed?

Looks like I accidentally gave your time to JanW last week. oops.

also...

I made some beginner level videos on the first step in CFOP:

• One: The Basics - This video explains the basics of building a cross.
• Two: Swapping Opposite Edges - This video shows a simple way to swap opposite edges on the cross.
• Three: Flipping an Edge - This video shows a quick and easy way to flip an edge on the cross.
• Four: Combination Moves - This video is an introduction to some basic combination moves you will run into often when solving the cross.
• Five: Chain Reactions - This video shows a pattern of combination moves where multiple edge pieces are solved in a row, like a chain reaction.
• Six: Opposite Colors - When solving the first layer cross, sometimes it’s easier to solve the cross 180 degrees off.
• Seven: Off by 90 Degrees - Sometimes it’s easier to work toward an intermediate solution where the cross is 90 degrees away from being solved.
• Eight: Extended Cross - Pick an F2L pair and predict where it will go as you solve the first layer cross.

Hope these help. Let me know if you have other cross techniques I could add.

WAT why didn't I qualify?!?! BTW you have put the same graphs in race...sub-25 and sub-30 ._.

Not bad. Not sub 25 though

PS: And yeah the graph for sub 25 is the one you used for sub 30

 

[CubePro]

And I should be graduating this week . Look the the previous graph MoyuFTW

 

[MoyuFTW]

You mean round 109. That sub 25 is crazy... what did you do wrong? You've gotten pretty fast now Cubepro.
