Awesome! Fastest homeschooled rouxer? I think me, you, and someone else are the only non cfop homeschooled cubers. Also, for your CMLLS, Do most of them work as COLLS? Sorry, just wondering.

What part? I live in SW va.

I am currently slowly working on CMLL and have 3 subsets done (H and PI, and O and other random ones so I can do 2 look) currently 5 work as CMLLs. I currently average 20 with a 15 second pb! And I live in the Richmond area.

Hey @Mastermind2368, do you have any tips for switching to ZZ?

Edit: And what is your opinion on doing a cross after EO?

If you want to learn ZZ for just 3x3, work on EO-Line. I personally find the bad edges in the F face first, B face next, S layer last, then predicting where DB and DF will be after EO. F2L is ,similer to zz, but not exact. Work on new algs that keep EO for each F2L pair, get used to making pairs for the 2x2x1 blocks that have white ontop. LL is exact same thing, except you have EO.


For EO cross, I would strongly recomend trying to use it like cfop solvers use X cross. My rule is I do it if I can find a soultion for EO cross that will not add more then 5/4 moves to my soultion for my EO line. When there is a good solution, I don't pause as much because I don't have to look down at DR and DL.

Hello all,

I just joined the forums yesterday and I would like to introduce myself as a homeschooler as well. If anyone is interested, I would like to get this thread going again.

Congratulations on learning and completing Cll. I have 3 algs left on Cll which I hope to memorize in the next two days. What method(s) are you using for Pyraminx, and what do you average? Also, what competition are you attending?
 
What you average on 2x2? I just use LBL, I don't really care about Pyra, so I forgot like 2 of the 6 algs. I average about 10 seconds. I'm attending BarbeCubing 2018 as My first ever comp.

Edit- Thanks for the congrats! It's something ive been wanting to do for some time. Let me know when you finish CLL.
