Timer Sessions

[Unorthodox Cuber]

Hi all,

I've been using 3 3x3 ultimate timer sessions and I switch between them often. Now my question is, is this reliable to know what I average? I've done 1000 solves from Thursday to today (Saturday) and I've gotten a sub 21 average. Would I consider my self sub 21 or would I consider my self my ao100?

Definitely use the biggest average you have, unless you notice a big difference between your recent smaller averages and your earlier small averages. For example, I have a 2.99 average of 100 on Pyraminx, but I don't consider myself even close to sub-3 globally; it was just a good day for me. Although, like I said, if you see that your first 500 solves (for example) are pulling down your average a lot and that you've improved a lot since then, I'd use your more recent averages of 100.

When I started cubing I based it off of most recent ao100 since I didn't cube that much but now I do 200-300 solves a day I do it based off of my ao1000

I do the average of my previous 10 ao50s. Really though, you can probably say you're sub 21 if your most recent ao100 is sub 21, at least at that level.

That's what I've been doing, but the problem is that cs timer would count averages of ( ) like this. for example, an ao12
Solves: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Second Average Solves: 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
Do I count every average or just every amount of solves the average is like 100 200 300 etc
