Round 534
Method: CFOP
Cube: MoJue M3
Ao12: 20.83

22.27, (23.10), (17.19), 20.14, 21.71, 22.62, 19.65, 20.41, 17.32, 20.81, 21.67, 21.68

Wow! PB Ao12 by about .1 seconds! I'm really surprised to see this result. The past week has not been very good, at times I've been struggling to even get sub-25 Ao12s. Today I switched back to the MoJue M3 from the Valk. Also, since I feel I'm being negatively affected by seeing bad results, and get nervous if I notice I'm doing very well and might break a pb, I set up csTimer in such a way that I could not see the times of my solves. I didn't look at any times before I was done with the Ao12 and instead tried to stay as focused as possible on the solves. The result is quite stunning! I must start using this method more often.

This is an unrealistically good CN average for me. The whole idea of CN is to choose your best cross right? Well most of these scrambles were good Yellow/White crosses so... meh.

Round 535
Method: CFOP
Cube: Aolong V2
Ao12: 19.38

17.71, 18.90, (26.33), 21.74, 18.17, 18.24, 15.68, 21.39, 22.27, 20.16, 19.48, (15.27)

Some slow solves, but my solves below 20s were fast enough to balance things out. I forgot when the deadline was and missed last week's round. That's ok. 2/3 now!

Cube: Guoguan Yuexiao
Method: CFOP (Not Full OLL)
Average: 20.47

Times:

Comments:

Very Nice Average, I do consider myself sub 20, but not consistent, at least, not as consistent as I want.

Round 535
Method: CFOP
Cube: MoJue M3
Ao12: 21.95

21.33, (18.37), 22.57, 24.35, 21.75, 19.73, 23.87, 20.65, 22.99, 20.47, (25.85), 21.69

Not much practice lately. I know I won't be able to break the sub-20 barrier without consistent practice, so I will see how this situation develops. Unless I can find more time for cubing soon, I might have to temporarily drop the race until I do have more time to focus on cubing.

Nearly sub-20, really happy with this average. The 4th and 6th solve definitely ruined it, but they weren't that bad anyway. Hopefully next week I can hit sub-20 :)
