Suddenly, after 6 weeks of practicing, I'm starting to be able track the cubes during F2L! The change is almost magical. It's like suddenly you can trust your guess as to where things are. I've dropped from averages around 1:03 to 0:53 in the space of one day.

Now the fact that I've only learned half the 2LOLL and 2LPLL algorithms is starting to hurt my times so I've got motivation to memorize some more.

It's not much help to learn new algorithms at this point. I think with good F2L you can even get sub-35 times with 4LLL :)

I think there are 2 PLL skips and 1 OLL skip somewhere in the ao25.
Of course I failed to roll it to an average of 100, but who cares?:)

I agree, that's why I'm going to learn the remainder of the 4LLL algorithms. Right now I'm stitching stuff together which wastes moves and increases the look count to maybe 5.5 on average. Stupidly, I've started on learning the 2LOLL algorithms while it seems that not knowing the 2LPLL algorithms slow me down more.

So I got a Shengshou 7x7 and my qqtimer.net was suddenly working, so I decided to do an avg100. Previous 7x7 PBs: single - 4:44.xx, avg5 - 5:09.xx, avg12 - 5:20.xx

All these were done within about 4 days, so that's a lot of strain on the hands and mind. I could probably have done better though. I didn't adjust the tensions or lube my cube at all.
