Uber props to you, Mike, for the Stargate reference!​

Round 197
Alumni
15.19, 16.28, 15.90, 17.80, 19.90, 18.22, 20.66, 16.81, 15.77, 23.21, (14.68), (26.00)

Pretty good average, but there were some bad solves that pulled it up. 12 second difference between the last two solves :(
 
Round 197

Average - 19.55

Times
21.84+, 27.04, 18.26, 20.13, 19.01, 18.45, 21.15, 18.77, 21.63, 19.40, 15.16, 16.89

I felt the pressure. :)

The +2 was just because I turned a layer by accident as I put the cube down. Second solve was a messed up F2L. It feels like this should have been better.
 
Round 197
Average: 30.24 (σ = 2.50)

27.35, 29.40, 30.76, 34.32, 25.96, 32.54, 29.12, 31.59, 32.04, 26.05, 34.52, 29.18

Ya, I am still not sub 30, but I am rapidly approaching it, so figured I would jump in this thread now :)

Round 198
Average: 22.17


Times:
14.94, 18.91, 22.24, 19.97, 19.52, 23.57, 25.60, 20.99, DNF(0.00), 24.28, 22.35, 24.25

And here, folks, we have a prime example of how to take a potentially good average and crap all over it. For the DNF, I forgot to tab back to the timer, so I was in the middle of OLL before I realized the screen was still on the forum page... 24.28 was an incorrect PLL. The other 23+ second solves were just me sporadically forgetting how to cube. Yup... I can make a sup :20 average out of almost anything; I guess its just a talent.

Edit: Oh, and funny (not really) story. I didn't participate last round because my laptop BSOD'd part of the way through the average and I lost it. I have been having a lot of lappy troubles lately (Bad HD sectors, random reboots, BSOD's, etc.), and this event was the straw that broke the camel's back. New laptop is on the way.
