yay i found my missing 3x3 so ima do COLL instead of CLL for 2x2. It wont be until later today i rename my OLL quest to COLL

 

[Username: Username:]

o na i meant don't learn FULL 1LLL. ZBLL, TripodLL and OLLCP are definately worth it

OLLCP isn't worth it, many cases have trash algs.

OLLCP isn't worth it, many cases have trash algs.

OLLCP is worth learning first if you eventually learn 1llll(and only use those OLLCPs in there respective 1LLL cases)

i got my first timed solve on the master kilominx today a few hours after i got it in the mail today. 19:37.220. I hope to get a sub-19 minute solve soon.

Edit: the second solve was a sub-17:30 at 17:28.513

Another Edit: The third solve was a DNF because an accidental timer stoppage at 12:07.784 for a DNF Mo3. Not a good start for my first master kilominx Mo3.

Yet another Edit: I just finished my first ever Ao5 on the master kilominx and here are the times:
1. 19:37.220
2. 17.28.513
3. DNF (timer stop in middle of solve)
4. 17:35.969
5. 14:24.842
Ao5: 18:13.901
tomorrow will probably finish my first ever Ao12

More editing: I got my first sub-14 of 13:35.774 topping off my PB Ao5 of 16:29.775. Thats my first sub-16:30 Ao5.

Even More Editing: I got my first ever sub-12:30 of 12:26.117 to top off my PB Ao5 (first sub-15:30) of 15:12.195

A little more editing: PB A5 14:07.796 (will probably be beaten soon)

Got a 31.75 seconds on the 3x3, using the Gan 354. That’s down from 35.49 seconds. Almost broke the 30-second mark!

You’ll be sub-30 and beyond in no time! I was looking back at my old PB sheet, and in February 2019, my PB single was a 26, and I’ve already gotten 2 sub-11s in just a little over 1.5 years!

 

[vidcapper]

Took another chunk off my 8x8 PB, now down to 42m18s, despite double edge & pll parities.

At last, broke the 8m barrier for 5x5.

7m48.9s

Also, just broke 40m on 8x8! : 39m38.9s! (edge parity only)

Got my first ever sub-10 on clock!
single: 9.30

Time List:
1. 9.30 UR2+ DR3+ DL3- UL1- U1- R6+ D3- L6+ ALL0+ y2 U1- R6+ D0+ L2- ALL4- UR DR DL UL

Very easy scramble, the "cross groups" (not sure what they are called but it's like cross clocks that are similar) were very good on this one.

Finally broke the 20m barrier for 7x7!
19m35s

Not an accomplishment as such, but I've just ordered a 10x10 & 11x11, so watch this space.

They've arrived (both MFJS Meilongs), and are surpringly smooth-turning. No idea how long they'll take to solve though, possibly 1.5 hours for the 10, and 2h for the 11?

 

[Nir1213]

i lowered my f2l down after some time and plan to do it at least 30 seconds
also planning to get sub 40
at 3x3

 

[Scollier]

I just got my first sub 30 on 3x3 (29.36) after about 2 months of interrupted cubing. I know full intuitive F2L, beginner OLL, and beginner PLL. Are there any other techniques that you would recommend to improve my times even more? It would be great if I could hear from you

 

[MJS Cubing]

Congrats. Now it's time to learn Full OLL and PLL (Probably PLL first, but thats just the order I'm doing it in. There's a whole thread dedicated to this stuff and it's linked here
