Sub-35 ZZ-OH Ao5 and 35secs ZZ-OH Ao12.
I only need to improve my EOLine or should I say get better at solving 10 bad edges case.

I don't know if this is an accomplishment but I solved my first 4x4 on my own.
No tutorials I resisted any tuts and I also had the basic idea on how to solve it eg: solve the centers,edges then do normal 3x3,that's it and damn was I lucky no PARITY!!!!! >W< .I did it on a Sim/virtual cube lol cause I don't have a real 4x4.I guess if you don't have the real thing go virtual then lol.

I just had the weirdest skip...
I did the cross, 3 F2L pairs, then I thought I was finished with F2L, but I had another pair that needed to be inserted which I didn't see. Because of that I did 2-Look OLL before I inserted the last pair, but quickly realized after 1-look (LL edge orientation) that I had a missing pair. I inserted the pair and the cube was solved! (just needed a U2 AUF).
Still a really bad time because the cross and the first 3 pairs were kinda slow, but it was really cool.

Heres a new Ao5, Ao10, Ao12,... 1 day almost exactly since my last post here:

Average: 01:23.06 Best: 01:09.85
Avg. 5: 01:22.34 3 of 5: 01:18.76
Avg. 10: 01:25.21 10 of 12: 01:22.15

YAY, Im getting better.

I use an augmented beginners method. Cross, F2L, then LL is all beginner method.

im working on getting sub minute before i work on OLL & PLL.

Did a really neat excercise last night with a friend and my 2 Dayan Zhanchi's, Got him to scramble them both, and after i solved one he would pass me the other scrambled, did this about 20-30 times in a row. and got quite fast near the end, now i need to get and keep that speed. and improve it.

also note, i have only been cubing for a month now.

I did about 50 solves this month so far, still getting sub 9 avgs of 12 :) Thought I'd be way slower after ~6 months zero practise besides one comp.
