Good job! I'm going to stay this week with yellow cross only for sub 30.

 

[muchacho]

Nice! I'll stay here for long, I will try to be sub-25 using just 1 out of my 8 possible first blocks (for each of them), or maybe instead start by not using blue-white for first block, then neither that nor blue-yellow, then also no black-white... that will take me most likely more than half a year... but being sub-20 may take me longer, so I prefer staying in this thread and avoid the boredom and frustration that racing to sub-20 would get me. You improve faster, so you're safe.

This wasn't too bad, I wish I could do that well with full CN, but it really throws me.

Stupid DNF messing up an H-perm!!! Still too many pauses and panic due to forgetting what the cross color was. I will keep participating here until I feel ready for sub-20 full CN, that is, until I can at least get high 20 and low 21 averages.

Scared myself getting that 42+ sec solve after no particularly good times, but looks like I've achieved what I thought was nigh impossible for myself and got a sub-30 Ao12 3 weeks in a row! I had less than 10 sub-30 solves when I started this, so to have 1700+ a few months later puts a big on my face.

Once again, thanks for running this Brian. It's been a great motivator for me. My aim is now to graduate sub-25 by the end of the year.

Average of 12: 29.957 (last week: 29.108)

Congrats! So close and with the 10th solve being bad and then the last two the best of all, it must feel good

Thanks. Yes, feels good for sure. I'd just got a 28.52 Ao25 before this, so I'd have been disappointed if I'd missed this.

Thanks. Yes, feels good for sure. I'd just got a 28.52 Ao25 before this, so I'd have been disappointed if I'd missed this.

Yeah nice job. I had one dramatic week like that in sub 25 where I had three sub 20 in a row for the first time ever to get through. Of course that was 2 of 3 for me, and the next week I failed with a 25.02. [emoji15]

That's OK I graduated 4 weeks later and still nowhere near the sub 20 mark yet.
