Round 125 Results​

AvGalen 19.46

Congratulations to tozies24, AvGalen, and Keban (color neutral), who all graduate this round! (AvGalen, I graduated you because I'm not counting the round 124 results that were submitted too late. It's just my standard policy - I hope you're okay with it.)

No, not minding that at all Mike. I used the round 124 as a warmup just before the 125 because I didn't have time to do it later. I was really doing the 125 to try to graduate....and I did. Next goal: 5x5x5 sub 2

This is probably the most "representative" entry I've posted in this thread. :27 is probably closer to my true average...

Definitely an improvement from the averages I submitted here last March.
By the way this was done outside in 103F heat. Heat index was 120F... The sweat/humidity made it kind of hard to control the cube. O_< It was too cold in my house

Decent avg for me, even though I was shaking during the entire thing for some odd reason.

ROUND 127

Average = 28.18

28.34
( 21.18 )
( 36.08 ) (messed up F2L Karma after that nice 21s time)
29.91 (Damn lost 5 sec in OLL, it was one I didn't know well, I recently learned them)
23.08
33.00 (Again messed up F2L 3 times !)
26.15
25.71
27.78
29.84
31.41 (Messed up F2L and bad OLL)
26.62

Very inconsisted times because I recently (less then 4 weeks ago) started learning OLL's and finished them about 2 weeks ago. So I have to think a lot at some OLL's. I also just started using a lot of d moves during f2l to reduce rotations, wich leads to messed up f2l at times.
I'm happy tough because end June I was 29-30 sec average and now I'm 28.18 with a lot room to improve because I just have to practice my d turns and OLL's, I get around 23 if everything goes well on a solve and it's an OLL wich I recognize fast.

I'm starting to gain turn speed without sacrificing look-ahead.
