1x1 wr holder's Progression thread | sleepy college guy

[1x1 wr holder!]

have grinded bld for about 10 hours with little progress. time to take a break.

4x4 oh times (just some hand scrams):

2:57:09
2:59:02
2:46:29
3:01:55
2:49:34

I'm really liking this for some reason.

just realized that my hands are big enough for 6x6 oh. might try a solve. unfortunately I haven't solved a 6x6 in about 3 months, and I averaged like 8 minutes 2 handed lol. Am i getting too ambitious?

anyway, almost sub 1 on 4x4 (2 handed; i have to clarify that now) I getting around 1:12.00 now. need to practice influencing centers, and I need to stop pausing so much. If I can get those two out of the way, I think I can get some sub 1 times.

I think I'm making progress on 4x4. I'm slowing down about twenty seconds. I'm not kidding. I think my brain is slowly learning how to apply the new concepts. may have a breakthrough soon.

do you love OP?

do you love OP?

I'm srry, I don't know what that stands for. Oll parily???

yes

blind attempt writing down the letters...
I don't know what I did wrong. I oriented all the edges correctly (I check in between edges and corners so i don't waste time) I had an even number of edge pieces to solve, and I oriented corners correctly. I'm also quite certain that I only moved the L/Lw and D/W layers. hmmm

 

[1x1 wr holder!]

yes

ahhh, i do find it quite satisfying to excute perfectly, but I am not a fan of the time suck lol. it's a great way to warm up the fingers tho, so I love and hate it.

OP is the best thing ever and most of pbs have it, also did u know that OP alg on 3x3 is a ZBLL.

wait a minute... OP is a bad thing. OP slows down your solve because it adds 20+ moves to your layer orientation. I doubt that the majority of pb's have parity haha. That would be funny tho. btw, no I did not no that it was a ZBLL alg, but that is very cooooll

People who like Oll Parity are psychopaths. Lol

I mean its a great warm up but talk about bad timing during pb scrams lol

I warm up with the adjacent edge swap alg

Nah man DP and TP rules

Nah man DP and TP rules

I'm starting to get worried for you. Lol

Okay, guys don't ruin my progression thread lol.

1:07:31 pb single on 4x4 I'm almost sub 1! unfortunately, I'm still inconsistent. if it is a bad solve, it's like 1:30.00 so i have to work on that haha. 4x4 is fun oh and two handed

edit: per JDAW6's comment: I mean to say almost a sub 1 single.

Wait? Ur pb is 1:07:31 but u are nearly averaging sub1.. somethings isn’t adding up

good point, I mis worded my post. I meant to say that I'm almost at a sub 1 single. I'm almost sub 1:20.00 rn. hopefully this clarified.

Thanks? Also good job on the pb single
