On qqtimer, whats the difference between session avg and session mean? Also is the best avg of 5 the avg of the five best solves, or the best avg of 5 consecutive solves?

Sub-60 on average if you're using CFOP

On qqtimer, whats the difference between session avg and session mean? Also is the best avg of 5 the avg of the five best solves, or the best avg of 5 consecutive solves?

session avg drops the best and worst time and then averages the rest. Session mean does not drop any solves.
Best avg of 5 is the best 5 consecutive solves.

Heres a question from me.

Is it possible to get under 20 secs using CFOP in three months?

I'm cubing for one and a half month now, and sub-50.
I use 4LL.
Let's just say I practice 6 days a week + one day rest. If I'm going on the right track,is it possible?

Does anyone knows where to get a Xcube center piece?

 

[Rpotts]

YrMrKnight, yes it is possible, start learning PLL now here's a post on how to learn Y, T and J perms easily

Yes its possible. I got sub-20 in 2 months iirc.
I recommend you practice F2L efficiency (like sub-35 movecount is good for CFOP users I have heard), and slowly learn 2 look OLL and 1 look PLL. Slowly.

I just ordered a guhong with lube service . But theres a slight flaw with my address, if there's a problem you can contact me.
The correct address is 549,Jalan Burung Lilin 3 1/2 Mile, Jalan Penrissen 93250 Kuching,Sarawak.

I made a mistake by adding the 93250 twice. Hope nothing goes wrong ><

So, I have a cube in front of me. I Don't know how to solve it using the Roux method I'm using. (I could do it with the Friedrich, but I really want to know how to solve this case with Roux) I posted a message in the Roux thread, and I'm waiting for an answer. In the meantime, I'd like to play with my cube... Is there any way script that would write a scramble that would lead to a specific position? (I feel like this was sooo unclear.) Thanks!

Check your previous post!

Is anyone going to fully break in a ss 6x6?

What my real question is is does the ss 6x6 get better with more solves?

Yes because you are working in the impurities the cube had and basically grinding the pieces against each other to allow more space in the cube. It speeds it up compared to a new one

 

[Michael Womack]

is this me or what ex: do 100 solves on a not fully broken in rubik's brand 3x3 and then switch to a dayan cube the dayan cube feels way faster if so explain why it is so?

 

[Ickenicke]

I feel me like a noob

When I am doing f2l, should I first choose which slot to do the f2l pair in, or find two pieces and then put them to the right place?

Hope somone can give me a good answer at my stupid question

 

[stricgoogle]

@ Michael Womack
It's because you are used to turning the Rubik's brand.
@ Ickenicke
You should first find the pieces, and while you are making a pair, see where they should go.

ok

What do you mean?

 

[Michael Womack]

What do you mean?

that after awhile playing with a crappy cube and the switching to a good cube the good cube feels way faster then it should

Thank you!

I understand, I also felt that when I got my Zhanchi!

 

[Cuberty]

I was going to test the Zhanchi without torpedoes, but separating the two edge pieces is hard. How can you separate the edge pieces?
