Det går da i den rigtige retning!

Jeg har købt mig en ny cube (GAN 12 UI). Det allerførste timede solve jeg lavede på den gav 18.5s - og det tager jeg som et rigtig godt tegn.

Jeg er skiftet til at bruge cstimer som min timer software, i stedet for cubestation. Det er åben sovs, og har faktisk de indstillinger jeg vil have. Det er også en kæmpe bonus at jeg kan bruge en rigtig computer, i stedet for min telefon.
