Example TPS Solves and a Few Tips (Video)

[evogler]

The value I find in this video, like qqwref's slow-turning sub20 video, is the point that even if your manual dexterity is sub-par, if you really learn what you're doing you can still get decent times. I think of myself as having kind of slow fingers, and watching qqwref's video really got me to stop worrying about my finger speed and just keep learning to solve the cube better. This video is like that too. It's obviously (to me at least) not a guide to solving at these speeds, it's just some inspiration for people who might think they can't turn fast enough to reach their goals.

Thank you very much for your kind sentiments. I had people like you in mind when I was making this video . Let me know if you have any questions about anything I said.

How could you have had people like him in mind when making this video when you were NOT talking about what he was in the first place? -.-

I liked the faster solves, was kinda useful.

Well, I like Your videos. But People who are Sub-60/50/40/30 and so on, don't need to see how fast they should turn. They just have to learn more algorithms (usually), try to make every LL algorithm Sub-3, every F2L algorithm Sub-1, make Cross Sub-2, work on look-ahead... The list is really long. But they can easily see (at least when they're shown) what should they work on. There are already many videos for "beginners" (which theoretically doesn't mean there shouldn't be more) but not too much for people that are Sub-14 or Sub-11. That's just like with the articles "Road to Sub-20" or "Road to Sub-15", but there's none for people who are close to Sub-10 but are stuck.

@jskyler91: The 'group' of people don't hate you or anything, the fact that you are willing to make these videos in the first place and put time and effort into them is a good thing - and you obviously have good intentions - it's just that a few of your assertions are based on elements that you haven't thought through completely. The only reason why people are trying to draw these out is because they don't want people to be misled.

I think the arguments that Joey has raised are fine, but please don't take them as personal attacks.
