Rank Name Country Average Individual Times Quotation
           
Jon Morris USA 14.69
14.42, 14.83, 14.19, 14.89, 14.49, (16.06), 15.74, 14.36, 14.47, (13.05), 15.75, 13.72
No 14.xx times last week. This week nearly all 14.xx times.
Darren Kwong USA 15.03 (13.27), 14.41, 14.12, 13.48, 15.58, 14.97, (19.62), 14.60, 16.67, (POP), 13.56, 17.78, 15.12 Too inconsistent.
Mat Moitinho de Almeida Philippines 15.58 14.10, 13.82, 16.64, 18.07, 17.13, 13.28, (9.94), 17.07, 15.63, 14.60, (18.85), 15.48 Back to sub16. The 9.94 was an OLL skip.
4 Leyan Lo USA 16.22 15.51, 14.51, 18.64, 14.47, (19.58), 15.37, 15.37, (13.81), 16.86, 17.90, 16.40, 17.16 Good average, but with a high standard deviation.  I was using Tyson's crappy cube for this average during Brent's 24hr marathon (Brent was using all of my good cubes).
5 Casey Pernsteiner USA 16.80 16.93, 18.71, 17.64, 16.03, 16.87, (13.30), 18.16, 16.65, (19.30), 14.71, 16.70, 15.55 This is becoming a normal average for me. :-)
6 Pedro Santos Brazil18.62 (14.84), 19.42, 19.25, 15.58, 17.17, (22.97), 20.58, 18.58, 19.36, 17.38, 19.97, 18.94 Whoa! I'm surprised, 'cause this was done at sunday night...and I'm a bit tired...But a really good average. If it wasn't for the two 20+ times it would be a great avg. Just the 14.84 was lucky.
7 Michael Fung Netherlands 19.13 19.70, 16.85, 22.29, (13.33*), 17.73, 19.22, 13.69*, 21.51, 20.80, 20.58+, 18.92, (25.50) Timed with "The ultimate Rubik's cube® timer version 2.1". I used Cross, F2L, (C)OLL and PLL. The 13.33 was a PLL skip, the 13.69 was an OLL skip and the 20.58 had a 2 second penalty. The two 13s made me too nervous at the end of the average.
8 Harris Chan 19.21 18.69, 19.87, 21.13, 16.52, 18.06, 21.08, 21.45, (14.46), (21.80), 18.03, 21.67, 15.55 I'm happy that I broke my PB for nonlucky case today (not my average though). It was just crazy! I'm not very happy about the 5 not-sub-20 solves, since if I could get all of it sub20, it would be at 18 seconds or less! Bernett seem so far away...
9 Julien Brelot France 19.25 18.76, 20.08, 17.48, (17.21), (21.21), 19.42, 20.17, 17.43, 20.28, 19.46, 20.59, 18.88 Consistent and good average for me! :-)
10 Pablo Ruiz Campos Mexico 20.69 21.45, 21.38, 20.48, 20.07, 19.29, 19.50, 21.92, (22.98), (19.21), 20.70, 21.40, 19.90 No sub-20  :(  . Necesito otro cubista mexicano para entrenar, esto es muy solitario ...
11 Dave Campbell 20.70 22.74, 19.55, 19.28, (17.41), 23.23, 20.31, 17.52, 20.66, 22.11, 21.7, 19.9, (23.77) It had been a while since i participated in the contest. I heard Matt was going to enter, so i figured i would join in the fun.  A good average for me, but it is so frustrating seeing it so close to the elusive sub 20, but i have yet to reach it.   No lucky solves.
12 Anthony Hsu 21.61 24.84, 20.76, 21.49, 22.89, 19.17, 26.81, 18.25, (17.72), 20.89, 23.08, (29.21), 17.89 I have not cubed seriously for a while, and my times reflect that (my PB average from a while ago is 17.65). This is my 1st ever submission to the Sunday Contest.  I use Petrus F2L, OLL, and PLL.
13 Craig Bouchard 23.5726.92), 24.35, 23.91, 23.86, (18.20), 25.34, 23.46, 20.43, (POP), 21.52, 23.62, 25.30, 23.92 The pop was a cube crumble...some of these solves were really easy...Shout outs to everyone...Sub-20 time in SC :) and Sub-25 average...This was a very good average...my times are normally around 25 or so...
14 Giulio Chiminelli Italy 23.87 25.65, 24.57, 24.74, 21.37, 21.55, 25.14, 23.84, 24.50, (29.43), 26.06, (17.20), (POP), 21.31 My new contest PB.
15 Dan Dzoan 25.38 (20.31), 26.72, 24.12, 24.64, (31.64), 23.75, 25.61, 24.92, 22.66, 26.80, 26.70, 27.92

lost my good cube, had to use an old one that gets stuck a lot

16 Jarrod Todd 25.60 28.25, 24.85, 27.55, (22.30), (28.61), 28.44, 23.77, 22.96, 25.37, 25.63, 24.60, 24.55 This felt pretty good...not as good as last week, but good.
17 Ambie Valdés 25.63 (30.78), 24.38, 26.88, 20.92, 26.41, 22.14, 26.67, 28.61, (19.31), 24.45, 27.38, 28.45
18 Tomas Kristiansson Sweden 25.75 26.49, (21.90), 25.69, 26.04, 23.61, 26.18, 23.40, 29.42, 22.52, 28.04, 26.12, (29.70) Sub-26, I'm happy :)
19 Christophe Thiriot France 26.42 (34.59), 26.56, 23.47, (21.70), 25.20, 29.45, 22.03, 27.09, 29.02, 27.16, 25.47, 28.72 Without a warm-up. You can see it in the beginning. Bad SD(2.42) again.
20 Teemu Tiinanen Finland 26.52 27.13, 25.07, 30.06, 26.19, 26.35, 25.31, (23.31), 26.88, (31.53), 27.26, 26.98, 23.93 A good average this week.. 
21 Brandon Blankenship USA 27.24 (29.63), 23.89, 29.47, 24.78, 28.82, 29.47, 25.29, 28.76, 27.31, 27.70, (23.45), 26.86 I suck. Not a great day for cubing.
22 Tim Reynolds USA 27.60 (34.08), 27.26, 27.45, (21.09), 27.37, 29.96, 26.63, 27.42, 31.35, 23.07, 27.34, 28.10

23.07 was a PLL skip; not bad overall

23 Sven Gowal Switzerland 28.90 31.24, 25.09, 23.59, (22.52), 27.42, 30.12, 27.56, 30.11, 28.86, 30.48, (34.89), 34.55 :-) I have never been so happy since I started cubing. The 23.59 was a lucky time (got an x-cross without having worked for it), but the 22.52 was *not* lucky (it was actually the first time I was able to plan my first F2L pair ahead). I was so happy after the 10th solve that I lost my concentration for the last 2 solves.
24 Antoine Simon-Chautemps France 29.23 POP, 32.98, (36.18), 29.41, 26.81, 29.97, 25.62, 31.56, (25.52), 29.69, 28.71, 31.66, 25.93
25 Marek Kurcyus Poland 30.61 (39.65), 32.14, 36.91, 27.13, 33.23, 28.79, 27.91, 32.41, 25.65, 30.98, 30.98, (25.16) Dajcie spokój... Psychika... Zw³aszcza w pierwszych trzech u³o¿eniach kaleczy³em tak bardzo, ¿e to jest po prostu nieporozumienie jakieœ...
26 Cristiano Alba Italy31.01 33.83, 29.65, 29.22, 29.98, 28.73, 31.20, 30.98, 32.84, (POP), (26.74), 32.90, (36.19), 30.81 I use:  The Lars Petrus system but with of the various algorithms in order finishing to thelast layer and "The ultimate Rubik's cube® timer version 2.1" of Jesse Bonde.  http://it.groups.yahoo.com/group/italianrubikscube
27 Grzegorz Łuczyna Poland33.10 33.11, 44.28, 27.34, 27.66, 34.03, (54.73), 34.74, (26.52), 37.69, 31.17, 31.00, 30.00 I'm (I was) drunk... I'm sorry...
28 Emanuele Scibilia Italy34.68 35.92, (24.89), 31.69, 37.34, 30.86, 39.44, 33.61, 31.69, 31.85, (40.20), 38.17, 36.25 The times are normal. Nothing to say except for the same fingers mistakes that bore me so much. I'm happy that the 24.89 wasn't a lucky solve, but a smooth one. It should have been even less, but my fingers get always stuck!
29Jeff Soesbe USA37.83 36.20, (58.73), 37.90, 41.79, 33.55, 32.99, 35.43, 30.91, 32.68, 49.24, 46.82, 37.67 The new mental approach of "be happy for sub-35, not mad at over-40" seems to help, but a few really bad runs kept me from a good average.
30 Alex Moon USA 39.47

41.60, 40.98, (27.13), 34.69, 41.46, 36.49, (50.33), 44.17, 36.50, 40.21, 37.89, 40.75

Standard Deviation of 2.95. Weird average.
31 Taroh Yamagishi Japan 42.55 43.96, 48.00, 42.96, (34.18), 43.95, 37.14, 47.03, 36.73, 44.29, 45.35, (50.12), 36.10 Practice it
32 Carlo D'Innocente Italy 43.96 49.65, 46.36, (51.30), 46.86, 35.70, 43.01, 39.99, 40.97, 48.33, (34.60), 38.89, 50.09 very good this week!
33 David Bergling Sweden 46.62 42.94, 55.06, (56.47), (27.60), 54.43, 43.48, 47.85, 46.87, 41.25, 45.56, 41.78, 47.02

Will my fingers ever stop hurting? :/

34 Mattias Claesson Sweden48.65 50.70, 52.53, (56.99), 48.94, 48.68, 45.60, 46.27, 42.93, 51.25, 46.84, (38.58), 52.74 I now i can do better! but it was quiet well times anyway, i got to get rid of those terrible 5x.xx times! =) keep up the good work lads!
35 Maciej Sokolowski Poland51.50 54.00, 51.00, 54.00, (58.00), 54.00, 48.00, 50.00, 58.00, 50.00, 48.00, 48.00, (48.00) Hm... I think I need to learn some new algorithms (;
