I think I finished T set for ZBLL?
The reason that I'm unsure is because I know that I know all of the ZBLLs for the normal COLL case, but I'm not sure if I learned good algs for the mirror COLL or if I am just mirroring them.

Also, since I learned the second to last set of Pi, I also technically finished Pi because I can jut mirror the algs. I do only have about 7 algs left for the set.

Yay, now onto finishing U.

L is going to be so bad.
S/As are going to be fine.

oh wait i still have H too urhgg

this is taking soo long

...I was able to recognize and use one of the very few ZBLLs I know...

Oh dear, I've literally been doing this for over two years...

At Long Island Winter 2019,I plus two'd twice out of an official 2.84 pyraminx average, and my 3.07 still stands.
Although I'm really disappointed, I'm going to try to do the tips more carefully in my future official pyraminx solves. I podiumed, so I'm a little happier.
I hope that I will finally achieve a sub 3 average at my next comp because I have failed a lot officially.

just had a really good ao12 for me :)

52.27.51.62,1:09.47,56.96,1:03.19,(1:17.25),58.30,1:15.53,46.21,(44.32),1:08.46,49.57=59.15

also got a pb ao3 of 52.99 and a pb ao5 of 54.74 in there (last 5 solves),don't know where the ao3 is

consistency isn't that great,but that's due to me still using sucky beginner's method for LL,this has given me motivation to keep learning 2-look PLL

My middle daughter, Rebecca, solved the 3x3x3 for the first time this morning. Her first timed solve was 3:18. She is 6 years old. (She turns 7 later this month.)

We'll see whether or not I can persuade her to do the competition solves this weekend.

THAT'S REALLY COOL! I intend to do the same if I ever have children I hope to see her turn into a great cuber someday!

Wow, that's reviving an ancient post! It has been 12 years - she is now 18, and graduates from high school this year. Unfortunately she mostly lost interest in speedsolving, although she can still solve a cube fairly consistently in less than a minute.

But she did participate in the speedsolving community for a while. She and her older sister both were judges at the 2013 World Championships.

learnt 2 step pll :)
now i have to relearn 2 oll algs (bowtie and headlights) because the 2x2 version ruins the cross and isn't 2 gen

For bowtie I suggest:

F' r U R' U' r' F R
or
x' R U' R' D R U R' D' x

For headlights:

R2 D' R U2 R' D R U2 R
or
R U R' U R U2 R2 U' R U' R' U2 R

I actually use one or another depending of angle
