Whoah Raymond I didn't know you got so fast! Do you think you can get NR or maybe NAR soon?

That's awesome! I wish you the best of luck! Just don't get too nervous and don't be too hard on yourself. No matter how you do, know that there's always a next time.

Hi guys.
I'm thinking about starting a thread like this but with blindfolded solving. What are your thoughts?
Thanks.

Only 2 sup-1s; I'm okay with that.

Yay! I'm really happy with this. It's not a PB, but it's an "in comp PB." I think this is my first pure sub 50 ao12 but idk. I'm happy that I got 2 sub 40s in a row. They were my first "in comp" sub 40s. Btw Raymond I'm slowly switching to U-style. :)
Hopefully I can get sub 43 by next week. That's a pretty big stretch since I average 45 and this was a good average for me but you never know.

Bleergehhhhh
Bad first solve, good next couple; I knew the ZBLL 3/4 which is cool. Then more bleergehhhhh.
Still, a counting sub-50 is nice. Multiple 1:05+ solves are not.

Round 3,849 will end on Tuesday, March 7th.
Round: IDEK At This Point
We're on round 3,849 right now.
When I revived the thread, I thought it would be funny to start with an obscenely high round number.
Anyway, Entire TV did 6 rounds before he stopped running the thread, due to lack of interest. I picked up on round 7, which I labeled as 3,841. As stated before, we have made it to 3,849, which also happens to be the 15th round in this thread.

Average of 12: 2:19.74

Yay! Someone is back! A few days ago I got back into feet and was thinking about continuing this! Thanks for joining this. I guess I'll continue it with the same rules and a new round will start every Tuesday. I now average barely sub 1 because I haven't been doing feet lately and I've been switching to U-style (Watch out, Raymond!) I guess I'll do my average now.

Round: 3850
Race To Sub 1:00
Cube: QiYi Big Sail
Method: CFOP
Average Of 12: 53.20
I'm really surprised about this average. I had a 34 single but it had a LL skip smh.

I have a guide for achieving sub 1 so if you want to know some tips to get faster, I recommend checking it out!

This thread has been on and off and I think a fresh start would be good. I will do a new round every Friday and the rules are the same. You can change your goal if you want. Make sure to PM me if I don't start a round. Here's an example of a format of what your posts for your averages should be like:

Round: 19
Cube: MoYu TangLong
Race To Sub 2:00
Method: CFOP

Just put your average and scramble in the same post right after that. I hope that I can keep this going and if I'm forgetting something about this, please tell me because if there's anyway this thread can improve, that would be great!

Ok, so here are the scrambles for round 1:

Round: 1
Ends: April 28, 2017

1. R2 L B R U2 R2 F' D B L B2 D2 B2 R2 F2 L B2 R2 U2 R'

12. 36.79 L B2 L B2 U2 L F2 L B2 L' B2 F' D L2 D' B R U' F' L F'

I'm pretty happy about this. I globally average 42 and my PB average of 12 is 36.46. I still have a while to go before I can get sub 35 but I feel it coming. I'm pretty happy that this had a counting 32 but the counting 44 and 45 were terrible.

Good luck to everyone else with their averages!

P.S. Watch out, Raymond!

OK, I'm thinking of going for Sub 1:45 (WC qualification time). Here are my times for Round 1:

1:53.52, 2:28.90, 1:55.50, 2:37.19, 1:49.50, 2:01.74, 2:03.96, (1:30.49), 2:01.49, (2:22.73), 1:39.35, 1:34.45 = 1:59.09

CFOP with a magnetic cube; I forget exactly which kind it is. I use white and yellow cross, and for feet I use full PLL apart from G-Perms and a random smattering of OLLs.
