If you will indicate your primary method (one that will "count"), then post your other times as well, I will track the alternate methods separately.

I'm not entirely sure if I know what you mean... As in, I just do both?

P.S. I think I might just stick to OH, seeing as I'm getting mostly "negative advice" in regard to CN Roux...

Edit: So, I did my OH ao12, but then was stupid enough to edit LAST WEEK'S post instead of this one with it by accident. ._.

My first time here! My PB Single is 19.01, so these times were okay in comparison. I'm deciding to be honest with myself here : I used to cheat on my solves and prepare my cross and one F2L before so I could beat my friends, but recently I've decided to go the honest way and solve legitly (lol made-up word). The 19.01 Single is actually a legit solve! So anyway, I just joined here and this caught my eye, I hope to graduate soon!

#4 was with a G-perm
#9 was a pathetic X-Cross attempt.
#10 was PB (was so excited that I forgot to save it on my stackmat )
Is it just me (as a Star Wars fan), or is 4 R2 D2's standard in 12 scrambles??

This is my first post here.
I use F2L without look ahead, 2-Look OLL, and 4 G perms away from Full PLL.
My pb is 28.62 so No. 7 and 12 are good for me. And i started speed cubing approximately 3 months ago. no. 4 was really bad for me as my usual bad extreme is around 44 sec and i had not had a 50+ in a while.

It took me about 4 and 1/2 months, and I was 12 when I got the cube T_T (am 13 now) But I finally subbed 20 for the first time ever 3 days ago, even got it on youtube! I've only been cubing for 6 months now.
