Yes; as it's BLD; but the only difference is that only the execution time is measured.
And going back to the 1-look argument; many people who use EG on 2x2 '1-look' solves and we consider them as 1-look; so the same should apply for all other puzzles.

How do people recognize PLL's from different angles when the up face is not alighted right? like they do the alg then they AUF???

Search up a guide on youtube for 2 sided PLL recog. I think Sarah Strong has a good one.

Is sub 4 on 5x5 "good"?
I just did an avg5 for the first time and the avg was 3:54. Is this beginner, intermediate, advanced..?
For details:
number of times: 5/5
best time: 3:25.39
worst time: 4:04.37
current avg5: 3:54.82 (σ = 6.95)
best avg5: 3:54.82 (σ = 6.95)
session avg: 3:54.82 (σ = 6.95)
session mean: 3:50.84

Nope, still beginner, I'd say anything to sub-2 is beginner.

This was his first average. I disagree. Sub 2 is advanced, and sub 1:30 is expert.

Maybe with the 4x4. Sub-2 is equivalent to sub 20 on 3x3 afaik. I'm nearly sub 1 on 4x4, sub 20 on 3x3 and around 2:30 on 5x5. I'd say I'm a little better with 3x3/4x4 in comparison but by no means so much that I could be described as a beginner on 5x5.

The fact that it was his first average probably isn't the best argument in support of calling it intermediate level.
And sorry, but I would by no means consider 2 minutes advanced.

sub-2 is most definitely not advanced...and to consider me an expert at 5x5 is a stupid

Sub-2 is very good. OK, fine, sub 1:10 is expert.

Lolno sub 1 is expert...

Eh, sub 3 takes some effort. I'd call sub 3 intermediate.
scottishcuber
Veteran
Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.
Does it really matter? The use of words such as 'beginner', 'intermediate' and 'expert' are arbitrary when compared to quantitative information. Nilsibert is sub-4...he has a lot of room for improvement.
CheesecakeCuber

Hm, yes I see. Words of truth right here.

Well put.
But IMO sup-2 is beginner
Sub-2 is intermediate
Sub-1:30 advanced
Sub-1 expert (gogogo WR)
