When can one call oneself a "sub 20 cuber"?

If more than 50% of your solves are sub 20, i'm quite certain the average will be low 19 or maybe lower.

In an Average of 5, you could get

19.99, 19.82, (18.30), 21.73, (DNF POP)

Which would get you an average of 20.51 and yet 60% of the solves are sub-20.

If I hadn't got sub-20 yet and this was as close as I'd come... I would probably end up hitting something out of anger. lol.

Haha yea.
 
Hehe, i was thinking average of 100 :) And if you are that consistent sub 20, it's a good bet that the sup 20 times will be just above 20, but the sub 20 times might have some fun 15 and 16's in it.....

Edit: I've checked my averages, and it seems my statement is flat out wrong. It's quite possible to have 50% sub 21 solves in an average of 100, and still average 20.971.

I just now had my first sub 20 avg of 100. (19.934)

Number of solves sub 20 second: 57

Number of solves sup 20 second: 43

So there is definitive proof that my statement was inaccurate :(

I feel this eliminates the factor "50% solves below 20 sec" as a measurement if you are a sub 20 solver or not. An (relatively recent) Avg of 100 should do, in my opinion.
