Round 505
Cube: Gans 356
Method: CFOP
AO12: 19.37
18.90, (24.47), 20.08, 18.07, (16.04), 19.98, 17.36, 21.60, 17.18, 17.26, 19.90, 23.40
Did this average at the office with my old Gans 356. Couple really bad solves in there, but a couple really good ones too balanced it out. One of those 17's was a lucky PLL skip. I feel a little better now after graduating last week that it wasn't just a lucky streak getting 3 sub 20's in a row.

Yowzers! Keep that up and you won't be here much longer
Welcome to the sub 20 thread. From the sounds of things you're progressing quickly. I'm sure you're not far off sub 20.
Booyah! Keep it up man!
I would say just take a little extra time if you need to pick the right cross colour. Then as you get more comfortable with it, enforce the 15 second inspection limit.

I missed the last round since I hardly had any time for cubing this week. Quite unfortunate since I have a competition tomorrow. Anyway, does this still count as 2/3?
Edit: I should have taken a few more solves to warm up. My next 6 solves rolled the average to 18.32.

@AlphaSheep you can miss a week and it still counts, just has to be consecutive attempts. I think if you miss three in a row they drop it? Maybe that's another race.

Ackkkk... I missed the cutoff! Now I'll have to keep doing cfop solves for another couple weeks... oh well. so close.
After last weeks stunning performance, I thought it would be easy. I did 20-30 warm up solves and got a decent 19.xx average and then failed my solves. If only the last solve had been a second faster, I would have made it.
But ZZ still has a chance. And when I do graduate (soon hopefully), I'll stay until I can come here with OH, and then after OH, with roux 2H and OH.
Roux not for awhile.

Didn't practice last week at all.
@earth2dan Thank you! I actually stopped cubing at 27seconds a couple of years ago; I started again in mid-May. I was disappointed too see that I'd fallen to low 40s, forgetting lots of PLLs
Since then, I've practiced with what feels right - 12 PLLs, mostly 2-Look OLL, around 25 F2L cases (intuitive+alg; I bring the others down to a state I can solve, takes time though), and a cross on top. So I know I can get sub 20, as I feel I've approached my limits with these. I've been practising with the cross on top as of late; it's added 1-2 seconds to my average, but it'll go down soon as I get comfortable with it ^-^

Sorry folks, Friday was a holiday here and I was busy working on a landscaping project all weekend. I'll get the next round up later today. So you've still got a few hours to squeeze in an average if you haven't yet.

I was a little worried after those first few solves, but I didn't really warm up so once I got the jitters out things started to come together.
