Aha, anti-improvement , I just got a hand injury so I bet mine will go sky high too :S, although I suck at OH, can I give it a bash as well as roux please?

I guess I'm hesitant to allow OH too, since that would mean you use the same scrambles twice. I know you'd be using a different method so it wouldn't make much difference, but still.

No problem, I can do it when I pass Roux (If I ever do xD)

So pessimistic. I thought you said you "suck" at Roux. Already sub-20 average. Who are you kidding here? I think I will enter with OH though because I need a motivator thread for me to practice OH.

Round 275

Average = 21.35
23.26, 22.47, 19.81, 17.50, (26.15), 21.75, 21.36, 17.98, (15.95), 20.34, 24.57, 24.42

Not very happy with this one, recently i have been getting constant sub-20's but today was not my day.

Trust me, my averages are usually at 24-5 with Roux.

Hehe, I decided against OH, my hands are too injury prone Plus I suck... badly. Well done on that average though.

 

[Schmidt]

Schmidt : Round 275 : 23.18 (σ = 1.33)

I did the first 3 yesterday, and today I'm sick *cough*cough* %(

 

[Clarkeeyyy]

33.73 Ao12. That was the most awkward average I have ever taken. I was so nervous I screwed up almost every solve :fp.
30.71 36.50 30.84 35.82 38.46 22.87 (PLL skip) 28.99 35.18 34.26 28.26 38.32 39.71
My average is usually around 28 seconds. Hopefully Ill be less nervous in the next few weeks .

if you're new to race to sub 20, it is quite scary (as you could say), I've done it once before ages ago though
