Not consistent and I felt tired after halfway through. Had a couple of nice solves though. The last DNF was because my mother-in-law decided to walk in on me and start chatting.

I have had a sub :20 average in this thread, have a sub :20 competition average, warmed up pretty extensively, yet I manage to have no sub :20 solves in this round... frustrating.

Round 225
21.32
23.47, (16.24), 20.08, 16.84, 22.04, 22.80, (24.83), 23.11, 21.15, 22.60, 18.93, 22.21

Wow, some lucky solves! But I really messed up a few of them too, which ruined it. It was still nice to have a counting sub-17 solve, though - that's very rare for me.

 

[PokemonEggs]

Round 225
Avg: 19.78! My first sub-20 ao12!!!

(21.71), 18.00, 21.38, 21.38, 16.43, 21.19, 20.95, 21.13, 19.43, 20.06, 19.97, 19.29, (15.75)

Lucky solves, last one was pll skip. But overall they were smoother than butter.

 

[Carson]

Round 225
Average: 19.52

Times:
18.87, 22.26, 22.77, 18.06, 18.74, 21.67, 16.71, 25.10, 18.46, 14.99, 18.51, 19.13

Not that I'm complaining about getting a sub :20 average, but I still can't comprehend the variability of my averages. When I did the average for the previous round last night, I could even get a sub :20 solve... in this round I get eight of them. Go figure...

Edit: One of the first solves was a PLL skip... the fourth one I think. The 14.99 should have been faster, but I ended up with an N perm.

 

[uvafan]

Round 225
Average: 18.86

17.63, 15.13, 17.63, 18.44, 22.61, 16.24, 17.61, (27.46), 20.23, 22.45, (14.63), 20.59

Really good average for me; started cooling off near the end with 3 out of 4 sup20s. On the 27.46 I screwed up EOLine and G perm :fp

It would be hilarious if I graduated from this thread before the sub30 thread; that's what will happen if I get sub20 next round.

 

[Sillas]

Round 225 - OH
28.21

(30.83), 25.92, 29.22, (23.71), 29.83, 27.58, 30.44, 30.37, 25.51, 29.57, 25.98, 27.69

 

[Guti]

24.95, 21.58, , 22.99, 27.96, 22.71, 22.20, 18.12, 23.71, 16.69, 19.66, 19.07, 21.30
21.63
pb in best average of 5, single, and average of 12

 

[TeddyKGB]

The 14.99 should have been faster

Sound kinda arrogant

 

[Carson]

Sound kinda arrogant

It was a super easy scramble. When I say it "should" have been faster, I mean that my N's are pretty slow and that if I would practice them like I should... it would have been faster.

 

[sneaklyfox]

Round 225
Average: 19.69

18.48, 16.36, 20.14, (15.88), 21.24, 18.10, 19.73, 20.70, (22.82), 21.95, 20.74, 19.42

Sub-20 for the first time ever and new PB! But these were really lucky. Most of these crosses were easier than normal. And actually even while I was getting a lot of sub-20 times I was really disappointed and annoyed with myself because I executed horribly! A lot of those solves probably would have been at least a second or two faster! Anyway, still glad I got the sub-20... wasn't sure I'd make it near the end. Just knew it could have been a lot better.

Round 225 - Alumini

15.38, 18.13, 17.15, 16.26, 17.43, (18.81), 17.58, 15.81, 16.12, 18.59, (13.99), 16.48

Average: 16.89

Unbelievable average, so happy

Second solve I put 3 pairs in their wrong slots.

No sup 19's and sub 17 average.
