Time to grind Pyraminx I guess. If I lose not the end of the world but I wanna have that cushioning and an advantage in round 5. Btw, @Clock_Enthusiast, since there will be 6 people left after round 4, who gets the advantages for round 5? 4 of the 6 will have won their first match.

I've thought about that given how things have been divided thus far. I will simply have to give the advantage to four out of the six remaining competitors. However, it would need to be reasonable and not exist as a dead end for the two other qualifiers. Thus far the pool of competitors with an advantage has changed every round, so I know it hasn't been a guarantee to keep one in the highest places eternally. When I design round 5, I will account for that.
 
Update for all:

All scrambles for all selected events are up. For groups with the same event (1 and 3), you DO have a different scramble set.

Please DM me your times individually.

If everyone submits relatively soon (early), I MAY be able to compile the results and at least get the qualifiers for round 5 out. Perhaps round 5 could even be posted by then, but no promises until the previously specified date.

Brief reminder for how elimination works this round:

The four winners from pairs are safe from elimination and will recieve a slight advantage next round. The defeated four will fight for two remaining tickets to round 5. Two pairs will be randomly generated from the "L" category, and an event will also be generated (which both competitors of said pair are capable of completing). Unlike the first part of this round, there is no opportunity for either competitor in a pair to select the event--what you get is what you get. My best advice is to simply not mess up. If you just solve the puzzle faster, you might win!

“Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end up really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.”
