Edit: Cfop Is the most used so it has been explored the most and everyone who has a Wr uses it so every nub sees that they are fast and learns it. I think it is a good method, but if every method had the same population of people who used it I think it would be a lot better for the community. I forget who this was, but someone said their avg was like 40 with CFOP, they learned Roux and the next day they were sub 37.

I like saying CFOP is the best, but some methods are better for certain people.

My Mains:

2x2 - Chuwen
3x3 - Valk 3 DIY M
4x4 - Wuque
Pyra - Moyu M, soon to be X-man bell.
OH: GTS2M
Skewb: Moyu M.

I agree, and I use CFOP myself! Though I have been thinking about learning a different method...

And like I said earlier, I tried ZZ and Roux but they weren't for me, like what CornerCutter said here. V

Yeah, at least you gave them a try. It is only 1/3 chance that CFOP is the best method for you, so 1 third of the people using it are doing the right thing.


Ok for my mains. I do all the Wca Puzzles (All the events -Multi, 4x4, 5x5 Bld) , but don't give half a crap about some of them.
2x2: Guanpo
3x3: Cubicle Valk, soon will probably be a thunderclap M
4x4: One of those Kungfu ones
5x5: bochuang
6x6: Weshi
7x7: WuJi
Clock: Rubiks
Skewb: Qiyi normal
Sq1: Qiyi
Mega: SS aurora
Pyra: Moyu mag
Blind: I don't care
OH: Valk, might change to Thunderclap M
Feet: Thunderclap M with N52's (The thunderclap M I was talking about will have weaker magnets.)
FMC: What ever.

Now lets do times:

2x2: 5,4 secs
3x3: Sub 17
4x4: 1:20
5x5: 2:30
6x6: 5:50
7x7: 8 mins
Clock (best event ever): Sub 12
Skewb: Sub 15
Sq1: 45, 30 secs
Mega 3.5 mins
Pyra: 12 secs
Blind: 5 mins lol
OH: Sub 27
Feet: 2:30
FMC: Sub 40 moves


So other then Raymond, am I the only one who does clock?

I think I can beat him in comp some day soon :).

How many competitions have you guys been to?

I just had my ninth today. My next one is worlds, double digits!
I told you what my mains are, heres what I average:
2x2: 3 secs, ortega
3x3, 11 secs, CFOP
4x4, 1:05 min, Yau
5x5: ~2:35 min, reduction
OH: 36 - 37 secs, CFOP
Skewb: 6 - 7 secs, Sarahs intermediate
Pyra: 5 secs, LBL, but I'm planning on switching to intuitive L4E over the next couple of weeks.
squan: Cubicle Qiyi square-one (want to get a cubicle volt though), and I just use whatever everyone else uses. I think it might be vandenberg.

And does anyone know a good tutorial for 6x6 last two centers? I just got a Weishi for $10 at my comp today, and I can literally do everything but last two centers. I had someone else do them for me, and I was able to do everything else, including last 4 edges.

You do realize that argument with the average dropping 3 seconds is so flawed... when you are that slow just by doing like 20 solves your average drops by a second. I went from 45 to 35 in like 4 days just from like an ao100. I do agree that it would be nice to see more variation in the community though :)
 
I love how nothing in this thread is about school lol. But yeah, been homeschooled since kindergarten so about 10 years now. Pretty cool and pretty scary.
