80 shaves haven't been enough for me. It's not so much a matter of time as it is a matter of studious practice (I'm not qualified to make that statement since I haven't achieved bbs, but it consoles me nonetheless)

Well then you'll all hate me. I did it the first time and haven't cut myself since. That was a month of daily shavings ago.
It probably helped that I've been shaving with a DE for the last 35 years and doing it by braille because I'm too near-sighted to use a mirror. I recognized what felt and sounded right when I got the correct angle. That being said, there is a spot to the right of my adams apple where the beard grows in a whorl and every direction is ATG so it only gets nice and smooth instead of BBS.
Too bad I'm not as lucky with lottery tickets.
