Thanks, but I found the razer blade method actually works ok. I might be putting too little, but it's fine.

Is color neutrality worth it to learn

Hey

I am a 14 second avg and I can solve on yellow and white. Would it make a difference if I become color neutral??

One answer question thread.

And yes, I find it helps a lot.

These threads would have been a better location to post this. There are also other numerous color neutrality threads out there.

My opinion is : No, it will not make a huge difference. Opposite colors neutral (yellow + white in your case) is perfectly fine.

EDIT : Ninja'd by Collin, but I linked.

EDIT2 : This has been moved.

how does one develop a lighter touch when solving to reduce the roughness of their turn style?

I've started to do this as well and i've founded that if I loosen my cube it forces me to use a lighter tough. Also i'd imagine that turning slow and making sure each of yout turns it spot on would be rather helpful. With Roux it has to make it tough cause it's so difficult to time the M Slice cuts just right.

The one in the picture is a version two. Whether or not those are the versions he's actually selling, I'm not sure.

Actually, that's a version 2, it has the save button on it which the version 1 doesn't have.

Whoops, that's what I meant (honestly, I knew it was a version 2, but I must have not been thinking and put version 1).

When people talk about the version 2 Stackmat Timer, do they mean the Version 3?

Wtf link?

I was giving a friend a link to the PLL page, and I forgot that I copied the URL, so I thought the Speed Stacks link was still copied.

No, we mean the version two. What makes you think we'd be talking about the version three?

Having a lot of stress overtime can effect your ability to solve right?

I could see that having an influence, it could potentially cause your hands to be tense and screw up your fingertricks, etc.

I pulled up qCube sim for the first time, and it's on 5x5. How do I change it to a 3x3 sim?

Is there an easy tutorial to learn roux ?
Roughly how many algorithms do I need to learn to master roux?

I actually just learned roux today, it took me about 30 minutes. Now I average about 50 seconds with it and I average 30 with CFOP.

I used this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_am61vCc_o it helped me a lot. You only need to memorize 9 algorithms to be sub 15 according to him.

Me and pandacuber are making one but it's not quite done yet (read signature).
Watch waffle's if you like if you want easiness, but IMO it's much faster to read a written one. Like his.

The site I used was Gilles Roux's, which is still my favourite because it's concise.

Also 42 algs is to know full CMLL, but most experts use multiple algs for each case.
