Auto advance 7.68 sec...
Thought I may have had it. It's tough to keep track of locations at that speed.
Should I train for the numbers WR? 🤔
It seems like it may be the next one to fall. There are more than a handful of athletes that can do it.
Current official record is still 11.45 seconds by Alex Mullen
Nearly got the GOAT in numbers... Maybe next time 😃
That's the difference between being the best and not!
PAO qualifying match vs Yunno. W 4 - 1
A little sloppy performance. Got very lucky with Inter and numbers. Yunno was definitely not at her best, she is much better than that!
But, happy to be moving on to the main tournament.
I believe I play the GOAT... Alex Mullen next 😳
Season 26 is done. I managed to finish first in division 2 with some luck not having to play Matteo and Yunno.
Looking forward to going back to Div 1 where I belong😁!
Have you ever had someone’s name on the tip of your tongue… but couldn’t remember it to save your life?
Great!

In Memory League, the "image" simply acts as a trigger for the information. I saw the word, name, or number just minutes ago, so all I need is something to trigger it. Successful recall depends on the strength of my initial focus on the source information. If I confuse similar names (ex. Keith vs. Jessie), it is a failure of focus on the original data during encoding. (3/4)
I’m not sure if this is the best way, but it is the way I have developed. I would like to say having more unique "images" instead of "duplicates" is probably better for times when you may not have focused enough on the source information. but as I said, it's not so much about the "image" it's about the feeling of "knowing what you were thinking". (4/4)
Another number Auto Advance PR. I still feel I can go a lot faster.
PR's coming every week now (at least with auto)

Auto Advance (AA) PR!
I've been experimenting a lot more AA, but not for speed but for technique.
I set the AA at a comfortable pace (or even slower) and focus on a specific technical element.
Once I am consistently near perfect and have a feel for the technique, I go down.
Right now I set the AA at 15.4 seconds and that feels comfortable, but after this I will go down to 15.1.
The problem I found with focusing on technique manually, is that I end up going to slow. With AA, I can maintain a good pace and focus on technique.
The technical element I'm focusing on now, is adding more feel and personality.
