That was a little better than I've been doing lately! Recently I've been trying to learn 6 new PLLs to take the place of some bad ones I have now. I didn't actually use any of the new ones - it takes me far too long to learn new ones for that. But I think that just the process of trying to learn new algorithms, even if they're not used in a timed solve, makes you faster. So I think it really has helped me.

Wow, the first half of the solves were outrageously lucky, but then it settled down a bit. Still, a very nice average for me, including a 19.26 avg 3/5!

Nicely done Mike. Maybe learning those PLLs last week paid off in more ways than having new PLLs! Its strange how plateaus can be broken by anything that gets you out of sub conscious solving. Great to see you with a 20.x
