The Solve Critique Thread

[Noahaha]

I made this thread for two reasons:

1. I don't want to make a whole new thread when all I want are a few tips.
2. It's annoying to see all the threads where people are just asking for critique.

Recommendation: If you post solves, you should also critique someone else if you have something good to say (proposed by Czery).

Anyway, post your solves in a video and enjoy.

I'll upload a Roux average video later, but my internet is being choppy right now.

Youtube isn't letting me upload right now, so I'm making this so I can still have my scrambles tomorrow (or whenever it's back up) on my PB Single and Ao5 (but I still wan't critique )

If a mod could delete that other thread or move it hear, that'd be great.
Thanks in advance!

@Cubingawsumness, I stand by what I said yesterday. Turn faster.

Here are my solves:



Pretty good for me, but definitely room for improvement.

(20.062), 23.462, 22.495, (27.753), 20.873 = 22.277

Lost the scrambles sorry.

I sort of went into Fridrich on the 27. Didn't work out well.

EDIT: the first, second and fifth solves were all clockwise A-perm. weird.

Isn't there already the sub 11 thread?
I guess this is good for non sub 11 people...

lol noahaha. that works.

Learn full PLL. Work on F2L look-ahead. Do lots of PLL time attacks ( or something of the equivalent ).
Learn F2L. Learn double trigger. For U2 use the left index finger, followed with the left middle finger. (alternatively use right index then right middle)
Use it. Practice often.
Sorry for the generic advice.

New Rule Proposal.

To have someone else critique you you must first critique someones else.

This way, there's a balance between demand and supply.

What if someone doesn't have anything good to say about other people's solves? I think it would be fine to leave this the way it is, for now anyway.
