Racing to sub-20

[koreancuber]

Mike : I'm fine with that. Since school started (and I'm asian.. you know what happens when asians start school), I can't do the weekly thingy anymore (plus, I'm almost sub-17 now). For this point on, Mike Hughey will take over this thread. Thank you everyone, and good bye!!

LOLOL!

I believe I will jump in starting whenever the next round of scrambles is posted. I will continue to run/participate in the sub-30 thread, but I am pretty much coming in under :30 on most of my averages, so it is probably time to starting looking ahead.

nice play on words

i would like to join... agian, before it seemed to be too time consuming and i would put it off but now i think that i will be able to do this with more ease and that it will hopefully be the extra push i need to get 100% sub 20

Can I do this too? I average sub 30 consistantly, but since the oylmpics, I was only able to enter one sub 30 record on there.

 

[Mike Hughey]

Okay, so I will start this back up again next Monday, August 23, with 2 rounds per week. I'm not sure what to do with the Olympics results; there were only 5 of us who did it; I don't know if maybe Carson might like to include them in his results or if it would be better to put them here.

I really like some of the things Carson did with the sub-30 thread, so I may try to do some changes to mirror a lot of that here before next Monday. It gives me a little time to try to get some of that cleaned up before we go forward.

And dabmasta, of course you can join - anyone can.

And koreancuber: thanks for all your effort on this so far - it was much appreciated! Maybe I'll be sub-17 someday (probably years from now). If I ever am, I'll have a good chance of being the fastest old cuber in the world (unless Ton starts improving again), so I would love to have that happen!

I am fine with this if it is preferred by those in this thread that participated. I can just do something to denote which thread participants are members of.

Thanks Mike!

I'm averaging roughly 23 seconds, so this should be just the thing I need to push sub 20.

I'll join in on the next set.

Results for the Sub-30 Thread Olympics are posted!

 

[Mike Hughey]

Okay, lets get things started again. I didn't get around to cleaning this thread up yet, but I'll try to get it done over the next couple of weeks. The new scrambles are in the second post on this thread, which is where the future scrambles and results will always be.

Nice average of 12 for me. I wish I had more than one sub-20, but it's still a good result for me. I was really trying to turn as fast as possible, and it seems like it helped.
