I forgot to post yesterday so I just combined my times from yesterday and today.

2000 previous + 69 keyhole + 231 oka = 2300 total
 
I've decided that I can't do this, because it's going to take up too much time. I know I'm giving up early, but if it takes me 15 seconds to scramble, 10 seconds to inspect and then 25 seconds to solve, then it's going to take me ((50/3600)*4219.5)/30=1.95 hours a day to complete this. I don't have this much time. I may try again either in August, when I have more time, or when I can get sub-20 (or faster).

Starting tomorrow I'm going to try a different strategy for my oka solves. No limit on inspection... predict where the last edge will be after orienting the centers.

2300 previous + 21 keyhole + 93 oka = 2414 total
 
Do the one you care most to get better at. You don't *have* to do it in 30 days. Some people complete this marathon in more than a month but it still counts. Judging from your WCA profile, I say 3x3 or pyraminx is quite doable in a month.

Thanks for the advice!

I think I'm gonna choose pyraminx, since I want the NR in it
 
Whoops, been practising mega, pyra and 4x4x4 over the past few days instead of doing this...

Ok, tried a few times predicting the last edge. Failed miserably. Instead tried to track the last piece. Maybe it worked better. Not sure. I'm also going to stop separating my keyhole and oka times because it was getting annoying switching from session to session. It'll be easier to post too.

Only did 20 solves yesterday but 380 today. I'm pretty happy. Got a sub-6 Ao12 even with most of them being oka solves. And my best time of the day 2.53 was an oka solve too.

2600 previous + 20 yesterday + 380 today = 3000 total

I was pretty busy today; I will make it up tomorrow. I would do more solves, but I just got a new game, so that will take up my night. All PBs :D

I'm going to try and do 300 solves per day until say a week before the world competition in Las Vegas. I want to start getting sub 30 ao12s when my hands are hot.

First eight days: 2266 solves, means: 40.90, Best: 21.54, Ao12: 34.52, Ao100: 38.81

Wrists started hurting so I cut back substantially. Taking it easy, I got a new best Ao12 that is close to my PB ao12.

Mean Progress by day:
39.97, 40.30, (39.75), 42.61, [42.34], 41.07, 40.60, 40.37

Ao12 progress by day:
35.17, 35.10, 35.22, 32.80, [36.40], 36.31, 34.93, (34.52)



1230 solves so far:

On day 5, my fingers are beginning to bleed slightly. I've learned to cube while ignoring the pain, at least most of the time. Thankfully, I'm not seeing joint or muscle pain. I'm hoping to see the finger tips toughen up over the next few days.

I'm finished with day 5 at 1PM. This is good. I'll get a decent night's sleep. Maybe the hallucinations I've been seeing during the last 50 or 75 solves these last few days will decrease.

I'm starting to see things in the cube I hadn't realized were there. It seems like my brain is starting to track cubies during F2L. Maybe at the end of this I'll have to start learning better OLL and PLL.

6/23 #6047-6346
300 solves Mean: 41.07, Best: 25.18, ao12: 36.31, ao100: 40.22

On day 6, I bought some "liquid bandage" so my right middle finger is no longer bleeding on my cube. Times are starting to improve a little. I can see progress, definitely better look ahead and cross. Times lousy because of fatigue. Still no serious muscle or joint pain.

6/24 #6347-6646
300 solves Mean: 40.60, Best: 25.05, ao12: 34.93, ao100: 39.64

On day 7, I applied liquid bandage to my fingers in the morning and didn't need it the rest of the day. I think my fingers are getting used to this. Cross continues to improve. And I started thinking about F2L at night which I think is a good sign.

6/25 #6647-6782
136 solves Mean: 40.37, Best: 25.37, ao12: 38.46 a0100: 39.31

Quite close to beating my PBs. Pretty happy about that. My oka times are still not on par with my keyhole times, but it's getting closer and sometimes I find some pretty good oka solves too. I think I need to work a bit harder to finish all the solves before the end of 30 days which is my goal.

3000 previous + 167 last two days = 3167 total
