1.71 2x2 average of 5

Well with 2x2 this guy just EXECUTED an alg each solve! So why would it be wrong for him to use his wrist to start?

-_-

With 2x2, when the cuber in question can 1-look solves, I understand how and why you can call it executing a single alg. But that doesn't change the fact that it is an entire solve. Proper start/stop procedure is used for 2x2 even if it IS just doing a single alg (that he just made up on the spot) because that is how it would be done in a competition. How would PLL (or OLL, CxLL, etc.) be done in a competition? You would already be IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SOLVE, and therefore you would already have the cube in your hands.

Thanks that makes more sense to why people do it that way
