Racing to sub-20

[ThomasJE]

If you had the time to find this information your self, which of the 7226 posts would you look at first​?

The answer is Yes.

I was unsure; 6 and 12 didn't mention this. I would have assumed so; but I double checked incase.

 

[Schmidt]

Schmidt : 24.14 (σ = 2.70)
20.61, 27.06, 21.86, 21.28, 25.22, 29.52, 26.47, 20.41, 28.68, 24.56, 22.44, 23.19
I don't like any of my cubes anymore

Round: 339
Event: ZZ
Times: 35.71, 30.21, 28.41, 19.13, 18.43, 25.77, 34.66, 21.74, 26.92, 25.64, 23.06, 23.00
Average of 12: 25.85

Last time I did ZZ 2H I was sub-25, but as you can tell by how bad the first few times were, and how my times were constantly decreasing for the first 5 solves, I haven't practised for a long time. If I do some more ZZ 2H in the next week, my next average will probably be sub-25.

Round 339
24.34
20.53, 27.53, 26.78, 27.17, (18.23), 20.00, 23.37, 24.29, 23.89, (34.20), 26.06, 23.79
This is my first race entry on this forum, so I was a bit nervous during my first solves as you can see on the times. I hope for some fun here on the racing/competition part of forum, and I hope I can improve my times a lot. I am happy for at least that one sub20, but there is obviously still quite a long journey to sub20 avg though.

Round: 340
Event: ZZ
Times: 24.98, 19.41, 24.51, 26.28, 26.10, 25.47, 22.46, 20.76, 27.85, 19.50, 23.98, 21.36

I forgot to practise. Still an improvement though.

Round 340
20.61
22.66, 19.58, (23.32), 22.82, 19.29, (13.86), 18.35, 20.48, 22.07, 20.31, 22.15, 18.40

At this point, I'm quite sure all I need is a lucky day at some competition to finally get my first sub-20 average in competition. Maybe tomorrow?
13.86 was a 7-move OLL, PLL skip. It felt amazing.

 

[tx789]

Round 40

19.788, 17.284, 19.097, 20.490, 19.048, 18.686, 22.312, 24.092, 13.807, 20.070, 19.880, 19.232 = 19.589

 

[Aceno20]

A good first few solves. I tried to rush the next few to get a better average, but that just messed my lookahead up.

Sub-20 to graduate... and I fluffed it up. I did the same in the sub-30 thread about 18 months ago.

On video, and I hope to upload it soon.

Round 341 (Roux)
Average: 28.87

Pretty good for not having practiced Roux really for awhile.

Round 341
Average: 19.33

19.32, 16.85, 18.14, 20.87, (23.78), 23.18, 20.50, (14.76), 18.37, 18.43, 18.69, 18.91

those sub-25s in the middle made it higher, but overall good. Does this count as my graduation? I couldn't participate in the last round because I let a friend borrow the cube for the weekend and I couldn't do anything.
