    Not a bad video, although you could have focussed more on where you spotted/tracked pieces and perhaps cut out some of the different solve angles. Also, if you managed to make it a lot more concise, you could have included more than one scramble and covered some more stuff. If you really wanted to put in a lot of effort, you could maybe have filtered out 2 or 3 scrambles which are good for demonstration purposes, to show various lookahead tricks you might have.
    That's some good observations right there. I noticed the x'Ur, when I was solving fast, I tended to do it, when solving slow ... well. I showed the angles because I though it would be nice to see the fingers during solves, and it could help people track pieces. I'll definitely think about that next time.

    Nice; I didn't see that, 'cause I don't use those colours ... nice.

    Felix Zemdegs, showed us all how neutrality can be the best, but big green showed us how good limitations can be.
    Did you mind the joke at the end Alex, I can take it off if you want?
    @second paragraph: Hmmmmmmmm

    Also, sorry, haven't watched the video at all sorry to say. Been away. Will watch sune.
    (a^b)^c = a^(b c) e^(2 i pi c floor(1/2-(Im(b log(a)))/(2 pi)))
    I've been cubing for only just over 2 years and I feel old already

    Just watched it... solve was cool, though second block was rather long. Just saying, my name is Alex Lau but nvm. A lot of stuff about it that I had wanted to say has already been said really in this thread... Nice solve though, will be very helpful to others.

    Also, please talk next time. Twu'd be g'ud.

    Oh! Q: What would you like to hear, was it not obvious what was going on?

    Could you post how you would solve the second block and orient LSE? And I'm sorry I got your name wrong, it was an honest mistake. And another request for talking ... what would you say?

    1) sure thing, gimme a moment...
    2) give additional tips. Twas obvious what was going on but theres more than just the solve to talk about
    (a^b)^c = a^(b c) e^(2 i pi c floor(1/2-(Im(b log(a)))/(2 pi)))

    Yeah, Talking would be good...
    I didn't know you didn't use other colours.

    Very well made video though!

    Yes, however, you should at least be able to watch and understand examples of other CSs.
    I think it can help to have a fixed CS so you can just look out for the right colours in certain situations. so if you wanna know which cubies belong L/R you can just look for you L/R yolours. Then of course you should pick the best signal colours which work for you as L/R colours... those are white/yellow for me
