MY SKEWB IS SO NOISEY
I did fine lol.The scrambles at Norwich were absolutely awful. I've never seen a worse set of official scrambles before.
I have 2 questions about Skewb. I wanna get faster and right now I average about 8 seconds with Sarah's intermediate method.
I am in the process of learning meep (I have CLL/EG down and am 2/6 done with L5C but recognition is very rusty) and hopefully I can get better at meep. But at the moment meep seems a bit hard to finger trick and most meep solves I have seen online are about 10 second averages. So would it benefit me to learn meep and integrate it into my solves along with Sarah's intermediate or should I just practice Sarah's intermediate? (regardless, I will practice and improve my first layer building)
Pros I see with meep (correct me if im wrong):
first layer doesn't have to be oriented correctly
Cons:
finger tricking meep seems hard
recognition for L5C
Also how fast can someone get with Sarah's intermediate?
tldr: Is it worth it to learn Meep to get faster if I average 8 seconds with Sarah's intermediate already?
You have to memorize like 130 ags for Sarah's advanced though right? ugh thats a lot of workStick with Sarah's intermediate, ditch Meep, then learn Sarah's advanced when you average around 5-6. I'm pretty sure that none of the fast people use Meep now, likely because it is 3-look, as opposed to Sarah's advanced, which is 2-look or sometimes 1-look.
If you want to get really fast, learning L5C eventually will help, but use the NS 2.0 algs instead of the one on the website.

And with sarah's intermediate you can get 5/6 seconds? aight thanks
Pure advanced (i.e. with no algs) is intuitive, just a combination of sledges, hedges and y rotations.

I usually called it "the six-mover". L R L R' L' R' was "the other six-mover".Do R L R L' R' L' and its associated mirrors/inverses have a name? I use it almost as often as sledge/hedge in Ranzha's method and I'd like to have a better way to talk about it than "y'know, that alg".
Superglue.hey there, the corner caps on my qiyi skewb keep popping off. does anyone else have this problem and s there anyway to fix it?
