In FMC, what exactly is a pre-scramble move?

YAY IT'S WORKING ALREADY

I LOLED SO HARD! Ok heres my Q: whats the 6,889,458,496,134,565,645,594th number in pi?

Tis 3. I really dunno. Can I haz cheezburger?

For a person who averages 17 seconds, is a 10-12 second cross/f2l average, below average better than average?

I have the same F2L but I average 20.

o.0 really? I had like.. 13-14 second F2L at 20 seconds

Time to work on my F2L

Hmm... cincyaviation says I'm better than average... oh well, I'll just work at my F2L anyway.

 

[dunpeal2064]

how much direct work does f2l take to get better in comparison to LL? I know its different for different people, but this sould give me a good idea

 

[Thomas09]

Could someone link me to a Square 1 Template? I'm going to cut some tiles for it once I get my tiles.

yay! ive been linked!
i would think that a 5 second last layer is pretty good TBH (acronyms FTW! (hey, another one...)

I stink, 8 second LL.

I'm curious about this also.

 

[MichaelP.]

has anybody else just read through the comments on the unofficial 3x3 solve last page on http://www.speedcubing.com/ ?

 

[dillonbladez]

i average 30-33 seconds, and my cross+f2l is done at 15-18.

my LL is done in like 8-13 seconds.

is something wrong there?!

Is there anyway to train on center building? I haven't budged at all since I started. The only thing that has dropped my time was edgepairing and 3x3.

 

[~Phoenix Death~]

On a 4x4?
Here's how I do it
1)Look at each 2x2 on each side and see which has the most 2-colors.
2)Pair them up intuitively.
3)I know my color scheme inside out
4)I try to swap around 2x1 blocks.
5)Or try K4.

 

[~Phoenix Death~]

Why does the World Record Book still say the 3x3x3 world record is 9.08 seconds?

 

[dannyz0r]

ony a 5x5 and above. I don't practice 4x4 because i'm sort of color blind when it comes to those QJ tiles.

 

[~Phoenix Death~]

5x5.
I see your problem. Again you CAN try K4. Try to keep track on some of the pieces while forming them. Try to visualize how pieces will form when you turn layer/slices.

can somebody help me, emergency
ok so ahhh I just posted a thread and believe it or not but it posted in 2 what do I do?

Okay, I've spent some time working on your problem and doing some calculations. These are the four solutions that I have developed, to fix your problem. I suggest following all of them.

1. Stop making threads.
2. Stop making posts.
3. Lurk more.
4. Improve your spelling and grammar.

yes, your math is kinda off... and you hav a better F2L than me, and i average better than you.... full PLL...

Maybe you mean that you don't take the cube from the solved state? So there's like a U already made. That's kinda illegal.

In the wiki (and posts about FMC) they are always talking about pre-scramble moves. But there is no explanation of what they are. Of course they can't really be illegal, or else they wouldn't be widely used.
