    Yay! Just shy of 20k points though... On the other hand, I'm not quite sure why I have 9 points from feet?

    [Help Thread] The "Square-1 Help / Alg Sharing" thread

    Resolving parity during cubeshape is both easier and more efficient. Most people who learn CSP would have a decent knowledge of most cubeshapes and which lead to the other, so learning cubeshape solutions is much easier than learning normal algorithms (like EP or CPP). Furthermore, I don't think...

    Jonatan's fourth solve was a +2.

    The one that most people use is quite fast if you fingertrick it properly. See this video I know some people use the RUD algs too.

    This is a J perm cancelled into a T perm. Good for big cubes, but the standard alg(s) are better for 3x3.

    He knows CSP, so tracing probably takes more than 5 seconds.

    28:08 first 4BLD success! Definitely beatable with a better cube and a better wing method (i.e. r2)

    I believe US Nationals is traditionally around late July and early August. This year was an exception.

    [Help Thread] Megaminx Discussion and Help

    I think it depends very much on how often you solve. Doing 50 solves in 3 days as compared to doing one a week across a whole year can have very different effects. I think my improvement might not be very representative of others because of differing 3x3 speeds to begin with, but the general...

    You don't really need to worry about splits at this speed. Just do ~50 solves and you'll probably be sub-2 already.

    [Help Thread] Yau4 Discussion

    No. As long as you solve centres and edges with the intention of reducing the cube to a 3x3, it is considered reduction, regardless of how you solve the centres or pair the edges. Yau and Hoya can be considered variations of reduction in this respect. However, traditional reduction simply...

    [WR] SeungBeom Cho (조승범) - 4.59 3x3 single

    Mind you, if this were an actual attempt, 1 move cancels in the XXCross and another move can be saved by AUFing once, so it would be 27 moves.

    Random Blindfold Cubing Discussion

    I currently use OP/OP and average around 2:30-3 minutes for 3BLD. In the past, I've tried switching to both TuRBo and M2 for edges. Both times, I learnt the methods, but never got around to using them in solves because I never stuck with them for long enough such that I was able to improve with...
