That means they're lousy parents.

I second this.

As a parent myself (yes I'm a cuber so I may be biased..) I will encourage my son in any hobby he takes up no matter what it is. I will be proud of every ability he develops.

Parents who think that their kids hobbies are pointless are just ignorant IMHO.

This.

Except when their hobbies are drugs or alcohol but then you did something wrong anyway.

Somethimes I wonder what those parents would consider as a good hobby.

What if the hobbie was MLP or they were an active member of Furry Fandom? Would you still encourage it?

I think we are not getting the full side of his story, if cubing is getting in the way of his work/life then they are right to limit it, I doubt they told him he can only do 20mins a day, just because they think its pointless.

I obviously meant within reason.. lol

I don't know about OLL, but it's possible with PLL. I just googled it and there are several videos of people doing it.

But some people have bad timing. Occasionally people start the timer too late or stop the timer too early. It sometimes hard to see when they're turning so fast so I have to check the videos frame by frame to measure the time myself. Nevertheless, I'm quite sure I'm seen every PLL executed under a second (but not all from the same person). And trust me, OLL can be done, it's much easier IMO.

However, this is all useless unless you can consistently execute your algorithms this fast in a solve. Sometimes you might be able to do an algorithm very fast but requires awkward moves, and your success rate of performing that particular might be very low so it might not be worth using during solves.

I think I'll start doing a similar type of thing with Roux tomorrow.

 

[wizH]

I think I will do these 'steps' in weeks instead of months, mainly just to get some variety.

 

[slinky773]

@OP,

Do you think a shortened course could also be somewhat effective? For example instead of spending one month per step spend one or two weeks. I think If I was gonna do this I would do it that way, I also think it will help keep the solve balanced IMO.

As long as you still think it'll be worth your time.

 

[Cubetastic]

I will attempt this while tanning in the backyard

They think it's a waste of time. It doesn't get in the way of my life. It has improved my piano (fingertricks FTW), and makes me happy.

Being perfect.

If faz always had sub 1 cross and sub 3 F2L he would be averaging 6 pretty easily.

I suppose..

Well then you'll be better than Feliks

"Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his Ao5 times?"
"It's LESS THAN FELIKS'!!!!"
"WHAT? LESS THAN FELIKS'? THERE'S NOWAY THAT CAN BE RIGHT!"

Why don't you ask them if you can spend all your time on video games. If they say no, ask what you're supposed to do with your time besides piano.....

 

[speedcuber115]

I can already do some of those things so I am going to try merging some of those things because I am learning full oll but some of my plls are sub 1 already.

still very helpful.

I don't really play piano, but they want me to (I don't play tons, but some). No TV FTW. They think cubing is an "Unhealthy obsession" I don't even practice that much. FML.

So what DO your parents let you do? Minimal cubing, TV, and video games? Good luck with that.

Related: I am so doing this. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! (Starting next month...)

I know. I don't like video games or TV anyway. We don't have one. I'm homeschooled, and have plenty of time.

 

[MaikeruKonare]

How is cubing an unhealthy hobby? Not everyone has to be the football team quarterback,
