Your New Years Resolutions

[Mike Hughey]

My big New Years Resolution: To NOT compete so ridiculously in the weekly competitions here. I did every solve I could possibly manage for one year, and that's enough. I'll still occasionally do ridiculous things, but not this particular ridiculous thing.

 

[Derrick Eide17]

To not fail in life

 

[pjk]

-Sub-13 avg on 3x3, or less
-Sub-1:05 consistently on 4x4
-Sub-2:00 consistently on 5x5
-Sub-2:00 3x3 BLD consistently

That is about it for cubing. It is hard to tell how much time I will have to practice.

 

[tim]

Breaking all PBs. That's it.

 

[pcharles93]

Cubing resolutions:

3x3 - Sub-15 avg PB
4x4 - Sub-60 avg
5x5 - Get a V5 and sub-2:30 avgs
6x6 - Fully break it in and maybe mod it
OH - Stop being so damn slow
BLD - Actually learn a memo system

Non-cubing:

Maintain a 4.0+ GPA without putting forth any real effort
Obtain real throwing needles and a few dozen throwing knives
Get taller by at least 2 inches(Least likely to be achieved)
Convince my friends that I can beat most of them up even with my height disadvantage

I agree, sort of. Although, it will break my heart.

BUT, you should add this to your resolution, doing average of 12 for 4x4 BLD, in one sitting. (extend up to 5x5/6x6/7x7 as needed )

 

[Jh543]

4x4, Sub 55 average.
5x5, Sub 1:40 average.
6x6, Sub 4:00 average.
7x7, Sub 6:00 average.

That's a nice idea for an alternative ridiculous thing to do. Yeah.

You mean of course that I need to have a successful average of 12 only once, right? I wonder how many attempts that would require before I finally got one?

I'm also thinking how good I'd probably get with that much practice...
