What's your time? (Average, if possible)

Apoapsis

My scores

  • 2x2: under 45 seconds, no exact timings
  • 3x3: Best solve 57 seconds, average 1:42 seconds
  • 4x4: Average 6:29 without parity, add 30 seconds if parity
ELBEASTO

57 is pretty good

My average is just over 1 minute, at 1:02, and my best ever was 43 secs.
