    How Long Did It Take You To Average Sub 20?

    I used CFOP for about a year and a half and got down to 21ish. Then I learned Roux and it took me ~4 months with Roux to get sub-20.

    Did you know: I faeld at roux, and didn't get any PBs for 3x3? Nevins didn't turn up so we couldn't attach keychain cubes to his earrings? I had no parity in ANY of the sq1 scrambles in the first round? Ollie's 5BLD success wasn't even NR? Dan hit Martin Berger in the head with the 3x3...

    After step 4a, is it viable to solve the D face edges and then use EPLL if there is an easy solution or D face is already solved?

    Roux Help (2nd Block) So a couple weeks ago I wanted to try out roux and after 18 days, my times have plummeted from around a minute down to 21-30 seconds, which is great. But here's the thing. My second block SUCKS. It takes me 8 or 9 seconds to do and I rarely get under 16 STM. I've done...

    Sebastian Auroux's site gives this OLL for the T case: ( U Rw ) f ( U' R' Dw' L' ) I can't get it to work, i've tried interpreting f as a slice and as a cube rotation but it just leaves the cube in a mess. Can someone rewrite it so it actually works?

    LL Help [CFOP] I'm just about sub-20 on CFOP but after doing some times today I noticed that my last layer sucks- it can take as long as 10 seconds. I think this is a big issue since my f2l is usually 12-15 seconds and If I could cut down on LL, sub-20 would be much easier. Can you give me any...
