Hey,

I'm taking over this thread. There are general rules about race to sub-x threads:

Spoiler: General rules

1. You must use the provided scrambles, and you must put your results in the format stated below.

Spoiler: Results format

Use CStimer by clicking "Input" in the dropdown menu at the top, copy and paste the provided scrambles, do the average, then copy and paste the results into your entry.

Round XX

2. If you reach your goal 3 rounds in a row, you graduate from that time.
3a. If you miss your goal for a round, then your goal goes from X/3 to 0/3. The 3 rounds you complete your goal must be consecutive.
3b. If you skip a week (don't participate), then your goal's completions does not reset (e.g. if you were 2/3, skipped a week, then beat your goal next week, then you are at 3/3).
4. Organizers must have new scrambles posted sometime between Sunday and Tuesday (depending on what part of the world you live in).

And some information from me:

Spoiler: Race to Sub-X - Pyraminx Rules

1. First round will take place from today (Wednesday) to Sunday.
2. Every other round will take place from Monday to Sunday.
3. You can submit your times until I post results of round.
4. I will post results and new scrambles on Monday CEST/CET. I will try to post them right after midnight, but I sometimes I will do it later on Monday (only when I'm busy/tired).
5. I will post scrambles normally, and also include PDF file with scrambles from TNoodle (WCA official scrambler).
6. I'll restart this from Round 1 (it will be more convenient for me to keep track of this race).
7. Race is in ao12 format.

So, here are scrambles for week 1:

Still trying to get used to the L4E algs, still want to do keyhole sometimes. I can see the benefit of L4E, I think it's just a matter of quick recognition and application of the cases. Might end up switching my goal to sub-6, we'll see.

Comments:
Just all around bad solving. I was not setting up my V very well at all - several solves where I did not get it from inspection :rolleyes:.One positive thing tho is that I recognized almost all L4E cases without having to think for a while. So some progress there.
