Speedsolving Monthly Competition - 2009 05

Ugh, disgusting.

Avg = 15.10 (11.00, 20.27)

Using my new purple C4U cube, i had a good avg of 5 in there (13.31), but the cube takes a lot of getting used to, and i suppose i haven't practiced 3x3 at all since the last monthly comp.
 
David Woner:

15.33 (12.73, 17.64)

First 12 solves avged 14.84, second 12 solves avged 15.83, so I kind of fell apart as it went on. Best RA5 was 14.13

In general I am improving at 3x3, practice and learning full OLL is paying off nicely.
 
I'll get in touch with Jude at some point soon, and get him to update the results and post the new comp. I just redid all of the solves and got a 13.63 average with a 10.43 best single and 15.30 worst, so I'm really annoyed. Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait til the end of June to post a good average; 4 weeks of exams, revision and cubing should help me improve quite a bit ;)
 
Uhhhh, I'm so annoyed. Last month I wrote;
I'm now very confident I could easily be sub 20 with a usable DIY.

Well, I got a good DIY and this competition was the first average I did with it. The 3/5 of the first 5 solves was 18.38, and the rolling averages of 10/12 continued to be 18-19 until solve 19. In the last 5 solves, I got 3 pops.. The first I counted as a DNF, the 2nd was 28, and the 3rd was 32. So, here is my submission for this months competition:

Jude: 20.21 (14.97, DNF)

Damn you sub 20, you continue to elude me! (P.S. I think the 14.97 is my first ever sub 15 non lucky - it even had an F perm!)
