    I must say i agree with the cries for "sticky this tread". It felt usefull for me at my current level, and i'm sure it can be of even greater use for someone that's "recently" gotten into speedcubing!

    This thread is simply put valuable reading material for people that want to minimize time spent struggeling with time barriers!

    I'd forgotten about that!
    I haven't got a chunk of free time for a while so I'll piece together some bits over the next few days, should have something up by early next week

    @others, thanks for the nice comments

    Awesome - I'm looking forward to it. (I've basically taken a break from 3x3x3 practice, other than the races and weekly comps, until I get to read your next post for this.)

    Indeed great post, read the lot at work at lunch, and again this evening. It is certainly going to shape the way I practice in future.

    This thread is the best contribution since I registered.
    Thank you.

    Thank you. Time to Cube, but this time thoughtfully.

    Thanks so much for this thread, I've been stuck at 20-ish seconds for like 3 months, now I know what I was doing wrong, just mindlessly solving instead of constantly paying attention to what I was doing
