accomplishment: made my 2x2 good!

so I have a 50 mm NP Dayan(main) and an OP 46 mm Dayan so I took the corners of the NP and put them in the OP core, and wow, what a difference!! basically like having an old plastic now

Highly jealous I will forever be salty at the person who stole my OP Dayan

Highly jealous I will forever be salty at the person who stole my OP Dayan

Oh yeah I remember that, that's really awful. But now I have motivation to do 2x2 again

I know that feel

Are OPs really that much better? I've tried 2 or 3 OPs at comps, and sure, they're a bit smoother than my NP. However, none of their performances really blew me away. My dayan is still the best 2x2 I've tried.

It wasn't that it was a perfect cube or anything, and it definitely had some flaws, but it was just personally my favorite because of the softer feel than the other cubes I had, though I never got a new plastic, and I've felt some really good ones. With my weipo and Yuxin white I can get around the same times so it's mainly down to the feel

I don't think yuehuns are really that great, and most of my friends have felt the same. My friend got a .85 official plus 2 because the cube didn't let him auf

 

[OLLiver]

Started learning ZBLL again! Take three! Decided to focus on 3X3 and OH for my cubing career primarily. Maybe a bit of Clock and BLD in there as well.
Going to try Jays suggestion of learning it slowly. Going for T and U in one month.
As my F2L sucks. my only choice is learning Algs!

Sub-10 is coming soon, I can feel it.

when they're set up properly, the internal locking issue pretty much goes away.

Nice to see you start up again, it was sad to see you leave ZBLL last time. I should really pick up the pace now as I actually have a chance of beating you. And I am at least going slowly, I started in April and I'm just at almost 200 ZBLLs. My plan is to get done by the end of the year, starting to get unsure about whether or not I'll make it though.

Just managed to get into another argument over basically nothing on the Speedsolving Forums! I'm an expert!

when people's WF times are almost as good as your OH times...

GPC is officially faster at feet than OH. They're not really related like big cubes for example.

I made it to 320. The key is not to rush but im hopefull theyll come back pretty fast for me . Also learning them for OH as well

you could make a similar connection to... say... megaminx and squan. Juan is a bit faster than my squan times with megaminx, which means I'm bad at squan and he's good at megaminx, but they aren't related events.

 

[FastCubeMaster]

Picked up Pyraminx and did a random quick 100 solves.
Ao100: 4.88

I'm pretty sure I'm sub 5 now

But your Mega times could be faster than his Sq1 times (right now they are because Juan hasn't done Sq1 in comp). With bigcubes, it's very unlikely that if someone's 7x7 is faster than your 6x6, that their 6x6 is slower than your 7x7.
