Well, after a lot of debate, I decided to make this 'public,' so to speak.

I realize the great irony, but I believe that a lot of members here may enjoy what I have created.

Recently, as the more frequent visitors of speedsolving have probably realized, there have been an unnecessary quantity of Roux-based threads. I, personally, have been switching from CFOP to Roux, and plan to eventually have it be my main method. Because of this, and the need for attention to the Roux method, as shown by the many recent threads, I decided to take matters into my own hands, and create RouxCentral, a separate forum from this one, where people can gather and learn about Roux.

This is where the irony comes in.
At first, after creating the forum site, I decided that I would only post about it in Roux-based threads that have already been made, but after some consideration, I thought it seemed somewhat appropriate to create this thread, for members who 'got annoyed and gave up' reading the other recent Roux-based threads.

Well, without further ado, Roux Central.

Yes. A lot of construction needs to be done. We're getting there.
Yes. There are only 8ish members currently, but we already have over 100 posts in one day.

If this thread seems unneeded to you, I am sorry. I know how annoying these threads are, but to some extent, they do help some members.
 
Now that you just said the word rickcube, StachuK will probably ban that as well, :p
 
Did you delete the website? I can't access it and the forumotion website says you might have erased it...
 
Can we put a "Why did you start Roux?" thread on there, I wanted to, but I couldn't find something that looked like a proper (sub)forum for it. I would like to see why people started to learn it.
 
BUMP: What happened to RouxCentral?
0.o bump.
Well, it went on for awhile, then when I got bored of the method and gave leadership of the site to someone else, it died rather quickly. :p

Lol so roux is your toy until you get bored of it? If it no longer can serve you then it has no purpose and deserves to die :p
meh RC ended up just being a chat site for me and mini in the end.

At first it was great, then less and less needed to be said, and people realized that there was only so much you could learn, the rest you must figure out yourself.
And so the need for a knowledge base for roux pretty much died, and then so too did the website.

such a sad sad tale.
 
The forum deffo had some useful info on it. Has the content been archived/backed up somewhere? I checked web-archive but no joy..
 
An easy to find warning, or an email warning, would have been nice. There was some great stuff there. I enjoyed checking Roux Central daily, even if people hardly ever posted.
 
bump: what? oh geez...there was so much useful information....well waffle do you still have the sub 20 guide? I found that the times to aim for and stuff were extremely useful...
