Welcome aboard! If you have a smartphone you can download a free speed cube timer app. That's all I've ever used and it works just fine for me

 

[earth2dan]

I did again 2 DNFs in the first 5 solves so I didn't even care to finish the Ao12 this week.

This isn't exactly an official competition. If you mess up you can just wait a day and try the average over again. I don't think anybody here would fault you for it

Better luck next round!

Thanks! Right on... Should have been more clear... I was tired, tipsy, on the couch watching Monday night football after putting the wife and kids to bed and decided to jump in on this. I had poor lighting and a QJ timer on my lap. Multitasking speedsolves does not make for a consistent average . I have to put myself in comp settings to get the appropriate nervous jitters going!

EDIT: list realized there are > 850 pages. You guys must be quite dedicated to keep this thing going!

I don't know what happens with the Racing to sub-20 Ao12s. In the weekly competition Ao5s I am getting 18s and here I cannot even sub-20, for 3 weeks in a row.

19.22, 16.03, (15.53), 23.78, 21.00, 21.71, 21.31, (DNF(27.35)), 19.53, 20.11, 23.37, 20.94 = 20.70

I started with very nice solves and, all of a sudden I could not sub-20 any more.
