Racing to sub-20

21.28, 26.92, 23.52, 22.31, 22.69, 26.70, 22.30, 20.72, 26.34, 23.58, 28.27, 26.27 = 24.19
over 2 seconds better than last week, i consider anything 23-24 a decent avg 5 and anything under 23 a good one, i improved like 3 seconds after reading ZB_FTW's post
 
Lol I joined the sub-15 race and then I picked the cube up and did a couple. Got a 25 second average sheesh! Guess a couple weeks off hurt a lot. I'll join this one lol.

Yeah already there.

Those 27's killed me... No improvement..
 
Scramble set #2:
25.19, 24.77, (30.89), 28.43, 24.84, 29.13, 27.77, 25.14, 26.08, (24.44), 27.11, 26.41 = 26.49 :(

One of my worst averages 10/12 in ages. My fastest solve was a 24.44!?!?! I had 2 pops; the first one was that 30.89, which would have been around 20 without the pop. (My Japanese speedcube is starting to wear out - it never popped before, but now it does.) I couldn't get a single decent solve. I think I had 4 E perms.

Oh well, maybe the next one will make up for it.

Average of 12 - 28.99
10 of 12 - 28.65

Improvement from last week - 2 sec. (your advice helped a bit)

Hopefully I won't get last.

tl/dr: My average was 22.96.

The 26s in my time brought my average up a little, but altogether better than last week. Was still a little nervous for some reason. Just wait, I'll get a "normal" average soon and it'll be like 20.3. :P
 
Here are my results for the second week:

21.58 (19.46) 21.24 26.72 26.03 (DNF) 21.83 24.32 22.16 25.44 19.89 23.25

The DNF was a messed up OLL

2 sub 20s but the 26 second solves where I totally lost look-ahead messed up this average. :( Need to practice more.

Avg of 12: 23.24

Comments: I'm actually proud of some of my solves here, especially the 25.30 (i had to do CMLL twice....) but this is a disappointing average not enough sub-20s...
 
Wow, that's a lot of people missing. Guys, it's due today. By MIDNIGHT. I've been thinking about actually doing the scrambles once a week. What do you guys think?
I got my times:
24.12, (25.31), 21.42, 20.83, 21.55, 19.70, 22.81, 22.34, (19.50), 22.31, 21.34, 22.66 = 21.91
Those 19's saved my average. I got more consistent times. Yay! (?)
 
noooo, i would actually rather have you do it more than twice a week, definitely don't reduce it, i need the practice

Ok. And also, I've seen some newcomers that posted their sub-20 averages. (???) If you get a sub-20 average (for cubers that submit their times for their first time (that sounds weird, but anyway)), go to the sub-15 race thread. Thanks.

P.S. I think the second scrambles were harder than the first. Did anyone notice that?
