I'm gonna try switch to the jap colour scheme.

[*LukeMayn*]

I was just wondering if anyone else has done this before.
I'm gonna be opp color neutral due to my idol YU NAKAJIMA
Has anyone else done this and if so how long did it take to FULLY adjust?

 

[Faz]

theres no point switching.

 

[*LukeMayn*]

But I like the Jap scheme

 

[fcwy1]

i switched. but never got used to it.
The colour scheme looks cool though, but blue cross is just so confusing.

 

[ThePizzaGuy92]

so then... white cross? blue on top?

 

[fcwy1]

No. it's supposed to be blue cross. White as the last layer

 

[ccchips296]

lol its not SUPPOSED to be anything.....syuhei omura uses white cross blue LL and hes fast.

 

[fcwy1]

Colour scheme does not make one faster actually. As long you are used to the colour scheme, you can be fast.

 

[*LukeMayn*]

I already know that >_> I just like the jap colour scheme....

 

[DAE_JA_VOO]

I don't think anyone said colour scheme can make you faster. There's absolutely no reason why colour scheme would make you faster.

Anyway, i really like the look of the jap colour scheme too, but not enough to switch.

 

[fcwy1]

Sorry. Misinterpretation.
You can just changed one of your lousier DIY cubes to japanese colour scheme.

 

[Henxu]

I can say that the FIRST colour scheme that you touch, will be the colour scheme which you will do the best times.
(sry about my bad English.)

 

[Pedro]

I did this once...not that hard

if I remember correctly, I got 17.xx or 16.xx averages (my normal averages are high-13/low-14)

with white cross, btw

I've always felt like I should switch back to the normal color scheme, since my color scheme means I'm terrible with anyone else's cube that I pick up. But now that I have so many cubes stickered this way (mirrored Japanese color scheme) (including 2 7x7x7's and 6 5x5x5's!), I can't see restickering them all. Besides, I really like a blue LL. I think blue on top looks nicer than yellow on top. It's an aesthetics thing. For me, the prettiest cube is blue on top, red in the front, and I like a white cross.

 

[Dene]

Is there any point to this thread? At all?

 

[shelley]

Switching is pretty pointless. You spend time getting used to something new for no reason when you could have spent it improving other skills. Unless you plan on being "fluent" in both color schemes, but color scheme neutrality's got to have some drawbacks.

Then again, I've invested a lot in BLD cubing, in which familiarity with the chosen color scheme is pretty important.

Yes, there is a point in this tread, and yes, the colour sheme does make diffrence!!

If you start from white, then you will have a faster F2L but slower LL and if you end in white you will have a slower F2L and a faster LL. (that is if you are used to the colour, not if you just try it out a few times).

Because the whites are the stickers that are the easiest ones to spot.

If you use a normal colour sheme, then you will have yellow opposite to white and yellow is easier to spot than blue I think... but yellow you can confuse for orange, aspecially if the light is bad, you have to look twice... so maybe blue is better opposite to white... but again, blue you can confuse for green a.s.o.

But there is no doubt white is the fastest colour

I'm pretty sure it is possible to measure this if you compare F2L times and LL times from 100 cubers that start from yellow with 100 cubers that starts from white.

But ALL of that can be changed with some bright stickers.

So explain why people DON'T use white as their cross color.

Cool thing that both the 3x3 WR's are on non-white
