25.67, 32.62, 27.42, 31.00, 26.46, 22.97, (DNF), 30.05, 28.08, 36.91, (22.81), 30.07

Bad round, many sup-30s, lockups and bad solves :fp The 36 was a massive cross fail while the DNF was a cube explsion during PLL
Maybe I should tighten my Zhanchi...

Round 166
Average of 12: 20.30

1. 18.56
2. 24.41
3. 17.03
4. 23.16
5. 15.75

8. 20.56
9. 22.87
10. (14.32)
11. 16.53
12. 21.59

This was a pretty inconsistent average as I had some amazing times including a 14.32 PB single, but I had many "meh" times as well. So close to sub 20 though.

HUGE improvement after getting my new cube (F2). Much better without the locking of the storebought I used to use.

Horrible. On the 28 second solve, I inserted one of the cross pieces flipped.

Very nice graduation average, sorry for delayed response. Business trips suck too much trolling time

9. 19.26
10. 21.26
11. 23.38
12. 22.74

Bad average is bad. Though, to be fair, the colors are faded, so it's taking a bit longer to recognize the colors. I'll have to get a new set asap.

 

[Czery]

I had three kinds of solves:
-good f2l
-bad f2l
-fail f2l (like a 10 second pause between recognitions)
