Round 346
20.84
21.14, 20.94, 18.44, 22.77,24.42, 22.31, 21.48, 20.95,19.94, 21.42, 16.30, 18.98

Though I really don't feel like I'm improving, apparently I am. I was thinking how terrible this average was the whole time until the last two solves. I was shocked when I saw the average...

Edit: Seriously? That's eight consecutive 20.xx rounds.
 
Round 346

19.89

19.60, 19.67, 18.07, 21.39, 19.94, 23.25, 21.68, (17.11), 17.73, 20.18, 17.38, (26.58)

Good average for me, I seem to be doing pretty well today.
 
Round 346
session avg: 19.53 (σ = 1.27)


21.52, 19.88, 18.40, 19.91, 18.04, (16.67), 20.86, 18.59, 20.26, (23.99), 17.72, 20.10

Decent, I'm feeling much more confident after pulling a sub 20 average at my first competetition. Still not exclusively sub 20 though, thats where my current goal is now.

Just looked at your results.
In every round you did 5x5 you were 10th.
In every round you did 4x4 you were 8th.
In every round you did 3x3 you were 12th.
Interesting.

EDIT:

Round: 346
Event: ZZ
Times: 20.23, 21.35, 26.26, 26.05, 18.91, 25.49, 19.77, 20.05, 21.59, 20.21, 27.13, 21.08
Average of 12: 22.21

11th solve had a fail WV recog. I should probably start learning more WVs, but my recog isn't great atm so I'll practise a bit more so I don't overload myself with unfamiliar algs/cases.

I'll edit this post when I've finished my average.

Cant remember why its like that with 4x4 or 5x5, but on 3x3 I barely made the cut to the finals that took in the 12 fastest cubers, and then ended last as there was a 2-3 sec gap between me and the 11th cuber.

EDIT: on 5x5 there was only one round and on 4x4 it was pure coincidence :D, same as getting 12th position at the 3x3 semi-finals :D

Round 347
20.67
21.74, 19.80, 20.05, 19.57, 21.42, 18.09, 23.68, 22.49, 19.81, 20.04, (17.54), (30.16)

The last solve was ridiculously bad. The rest were nice times, but a number of them were really bad solves too; amazingly, some of those were still decent times. There were several here that really should have been sub-15, but I messed up and wound up around 20 instead.
 
Round 347

20.52

(32.70), 19.60, 20.11, 20.06, (18.24), 22.01, 21.25, 19.77, 19.58, 20.62, 19.09, 23.13

On solve 9 the timer didn't start, so I performed the scramble twice and then solved that. If that counts as DNF then the average is 21.83.
