[Unofficial] My absolutely terrible first 7x7x7 sim solve.

[JonnyWhoopes]

The whole thing was fail. Specific fails include, but are not limited to: first center and the first of the last four edges.

Thats not bad. It is hard for me to get that on 6x6 sim. (Although I have only done a few sim 6x6 solves)

That's actually not too bad for your first 7x7sim solve. You'll get a lot faster in successive solves. Apart from the last two centers, the only thing I suggest changing is to get used to making edges one orbit at a time - I use handshifts of 1,3/3,1 for the inner orbit, and then 1,2/2,1 for the outer orbit. So that way I can do all of the edges with only x rotations.

How do you set separate handshifts for wide turns? The only way I know how to handshift makes it 2,3|3,2.

That's pretty good for a simulator. I tried once and failed miserably, way more than you did (I didn't finish the solve XD).

It's sad I can't even get that time on a real 7x7. :fp

Sims don't have physical cube problems such as lockups, or just plain crappy turning. It's easier to get these times on here than IRL.

Yes but there is no getting use to a real cube(Unless you started with sim's).

Shift+4 and Shift+7

PS: This only works on qCube, not on jfly or higames.

That is awesome, thanks. Wish I knew about this a long time ago for 6x6x6.

I tried a simulator and couldn't solve a 2x2.
