3x3x3 MBLD: 19/29, 60:00 [~35:30]
Terrible time, terrible accuracy. I lost the power. My memo was so weak... Like in my last competition ;) (the same score!)
I have only one logical explanation of this fact. Fever + pills :fp (it overcame me a day after the competition)

Why am I DNF? One of the solves is just a DNF, isn't that fine?
Click to expand...

Sorry it's "mean of five best". That means no top and bottom time thrown out.

If you would like to do another solve or two for last week and add it in, I'd be happy to update the results to give you credit for a non-DNF average!
 
2x2x2 BLD: 20.92
Accuracy: 18/20
Best single: 19.60
28.49, 19.82, 22.63, 26.69, 27.82, 28.16, 21.91, 25.80, DNF [17.12, 5C], DNF [16.36, 2C], 28.32, 19.60, 24.85, 23.62, 24.76, 29.48, 20.66, 27.80, 24.48, 28.96
Comment: Really bad. If the two DNFs had been right, it would have been a good bit better, though.

3x3x3 BLD: 1:08.76
Accuracy: 16/20
Best single: 1:03.65
1:03.65, 1:26.34, DNF [2:01.76, 3E], DNF [1:07.86, 3E], 1:56.40, 1:50.14, 1:07.24, 1:47.36, DNF [56.19, 3E], 1:45.94, 1:10.26, 1:36.62, 1:31.36, 1:17.28, 1:17.17, 1:18.29, DNF [1:32.29, 3C], 1:24.39, 1:22.65, 1:05.47
Comment: Wow - I beat my result from last week! (By just .06 seconds.) I've gotten faster. I'm finding that trying to rush memo just a tiny bit works. I can't afford to rush it a lot, but a little bit makes a big difference.

* generic key for mistakes - C: corners, E: edges or central edges, W: wings, X: X centers, +: + centers, i: inner, m: middle, o: outer, O: obliques
