Racing to sub-20

Round 138

Average of 12 : 19.92

CFOP with 40/57 OLLs

22.03
22.13
16.62
(14.77) - Lol, PLL skip.
22.41
19.08
20.00 - WTF exactly 20. -__-
(22.41) - I got this exact same time on solve # 5 O.o
20.75
18.11 - Got this one with an OLL I just learned yesterday!
21.07
17.01 - Another PLL skip.

Had some pretty LOL crosses here. I'm giving credit for the Ao12 to my new Dayan Zhanchi and the PLL skips. This thing turns insanely fast! Definitely the luckiest Ao12 I've ever done. My PB, by the way!

After the 11th solve my average was 20.24 IIRC, and I thought, "No way I'm going to make it to sub-20 now. But that's okay, I probably won't next week either!" and then BAM! PLL skip.

Absolutely terrible. I should have warmed up. I considered not even posting for this week... I average around 23 now, not 25...

Round 138 (no warmup, I probably should have done one...)...

Average: 25.13

Absolutely terrible. I should have warmed up.

I almost didn't warm up this week, and look how I just barely subbed-20 for the first time! Moral of the story : ALWAYS warm up for a forum average. Not to mention I got a 15.07 while warming up that I was able to reconstruct and put in the easy/funny/hard/weird scrambles thread! I've posted there a lot today >.>

Lol, i think these scrambles were waay too easy compared to normal Prisma Puzzle Timer scrambles that I use. Just 5 minutes earlier i was averaging 25 seconds on PPT, and now all of a sudden I am averaging 22 seconds. On a good day I would have probably been able to sub 20 this, but I wasn't doing my best today. Nice average Jaycee, and finally you got a better cube :P (im using a zhanchi too).

I knew this was going to be a rough round before I even started... I started warming up and my times were pretty bad. After 70+ solves, I figured I was as warmed up as I was going to get.

I DID IT !!!!! The last times I tried this race were quite depressing for me as I was back to the 22-23s... and this time, I just did it... Well a lot of easy cross here. Even a 2-move cross (that I completely failed because somehow I couldn't find my third edge...).

One time destroyed my entire average...

This could easily have been sub-20 if it wasn't for those 3x.yz times :@

The first terrible time was because I dropped the cube into my lap in the middle of OLL and didn't know where in the algorithm I were. The second terrible time just was a terrible solve over all.....
 
I mastered f2l. I still practice it a lot, but I know all cases (found them by myself). I know full PLL since I'm avg 50 lololol. I know like 15 OLL algs.

In my solve, it's the OLL part that sucks balls. I need to practice it.

Just because you know all the cases doesn't mean you've mastered it, not yet at least. Just work on lookahead and smooth transition between the pairs.
