Trying to work on my F2L which is pretty poor as it's not intuitive enough - basically 41 algs with way too many rotations and U-moves. Also tracking empty slots.

to be honest, it's not as impressive as it looks. The 166 was done on my old standard storebought cube, which turned as if it was lined with sandpaper and glue. Honestly, each turn would require the force normally needed to get a nut off a bolt that's been stuck there and rusting for 30 years. When I got my new cube, my times dropped by about 50 seconds straight away.

GuHong. Got it for my birthday from a friend who lubed it for me and did some mods on it. That makes my jump even less impressive.

I wanna ask this here and not on the other thread..My name was on the 71 sub 30 list. Does that mean i graduated and i can move on to another sub x thread?

I think you graduate when you have 3 sub-30 AO12s within a reasonable time span of each other.

um...whats AO12's?

Average of 12 solves. Basically, if you have achieved sub-30 in 3 different weeks you graduate.

and I think they have to be within 3 weeks of each other or something - at least that was part of the "original" rules... that may have been laxed tho...

If you haven't understood anything that others have said to this so far :

a) Reread the original post.
b) If you still don't get it, lrn2read.
c) Just ignore everything and know that you'll have graduated when
- Brian Kremer says so.
- Your times are red in the picture list.

This week I have been working on the algs for the 'hard' F2L's which initially slowed my times but now I'm back down to where I was last week, and hopefully should improve by next week. My slowest time was again, just freezing up on F2L. Also I ordered a new Dayan cube, I don't even know what cube I am using now, it has no logo anywhere and didn't say on the package and I have had it for a few years. It keeps catching just barely on the corners, so hopefully a new cube will help a bit.
EDIT:I also timed my cross for the first time this week, anywhere from 7-10 seconds unless its a really easy one. I didn't have a clue it was that bad, not sure on how to get better at it...

No prob.

curtishousley · Sep 14, 2011

@Jaycee, what are you Umm.. what?ing about? I put the round(72) and the event(speed), as in I'm not doing OH, or Roux. If you look at the results table it lists the event that each person is trying to get sub-30 in, so I just put my event along with the round.
