Waffle's Roux Tutorial

Kirjava said:
What I do to practise algs is make a text file that contains different groups of algs. I then have a shell script that prints a random line from the file so I use that as a scramble.

But tbh, CMLL isn't enough cases to warrant that, is it? It's been so long since I didn't know it.

It's not as much the number of cases I have trouble with, it's just the similarity between them. I suppose this would be the easiest solution that I'll probably end up going with.

I've used this before, but my problem is that I don't really want to see all the cases. I was thinking something more along the lines of badmephistos PLL trainer, CMLL style where I can disable cases that I don't really have a problem with or haven't yet learned.


anyway, I appreciate the speedy responses. Peace.
 
Hey, Rouxers. Just wanted to let you know that Yoda convinced me to stay with Roux. I've been stuck at the :40 second barrier for a while now and it's been getting frustrating, and I've been thinking about going back to CFOP because of the easier lookahead/recognition/etc. Then, Star Wars came on TV and I realized that CFOP is the dark side, Roux is the way of the Jedi.

The dark side (CFOP) is for those who want power (low times) and want it now. Roux is the light side because it requires patience, discipline, and humility. (AKA, really bad times for a long time, lol)

So, I decided to stick with Roux because "Once you start down the dark path,forever will it dominate your destiny."

Back to working on blocks some more...


Edit: Don't kill me Fridrich users, I love Fridrich too, I just love Roux more :)
 
lolzers. That was epic.

I used to do roux.. But I didn't stop because I wanted fast times quickly. Just that roux is kind of annoying for big cubes and OH.

I guess I'm on... THE DARK SIDE.

Well those are excellent reasons to stop using it for two-handed 3x3x3 solving.

Doing roux for 3x3 speed and something else for OH and big cubes would bother me. for some reason because I'm weird like that.

Sorry for bump. I have a question, can you be fast as others without being partial neutral? Is it harder?

If your lookahead is perfectly neutral then you will always get the advantage of having easier crosses and/or xcrosses.

However, people will argue that, with fixed colour your lookahead could will usually be better as you're always looking for the same thing.

As proved by Feliks, it seems the best result is being colour neutral but Erik and others aren't exactly bad :p
 
Mmmm ok. But does it have a drastically higher move count for the first block? Or is the difference only 2~3 extra moves?
