Racing to sub-20

[Ickenicke]

Ao12 20.25

Me and my cube aren't best friends right now One big pop(DNF) and one big lockup(23.88). Without them it would have been easy to sub-20!

[pi.cubed]

Round 172
First round for pi.cubed
I think I scrambled the third one wrong.

Average 10 of 12: 20.42

1. 21.87
2. 18.71
3. 14.75 [PLL skip]
4. 21.12
5. 20.32
6. 16.84
7. 15.00
8. 23.42
9. 22.80
10. DNF(21.22) I stopped the timer and PLL had not been solved yet. Somehow I did the wrong PLL alg.
11. 22.62
12. 21.48 [PLL skip]

I'm a bit disappointed with this average as the last 5 solves were a horrible fail and were a 22.95 average of 5. Would have certainly been sub-20 if those solves were consistent with the others.
But I don't really mind as it was still one of my top averages and the first 9 solves rolled a 19.72 average of 12 with the 3 solves before I began this average. This was my first sub-20 average of 12 and I'm especially happy as I only got my first sub-21 average of 12 a few days ago.
It also included my first sub 18 average of 5, 17.39 (solves 3-7)! I was surprised by this as I only got my first sub-19 average of 5 this morning.
This has been a very successful few days of 3x3ing.
So, even though the average itself was a little disappointing I am still happy with the session as a whole.

What does Sub-(Numbers) means?

 

[pi.cubed]

What does Sub-(Numbers) means?

Do you mean sub-20 and things like that?
Sub in this case means below.
So if I said it was my first sub-14 it would mean it was my first solve below 14 (would usually mean a 13 solve).
