guys, there's no need meh or ? him.
I keep this pfp because 1. pjk gave it to me, right? 2. It is a symbol of resistance to the SFR. 3. I don't know why, but I like this line with a little squiggle on top.
Today is Pyraminx practice day. I'm competing in it at the comp I'm going to so I need to make sure I still remember my lbl algs. I probably average sub 15 , so hopefully I can get that down a little. other news is that the qiyi ms isn't too hot lol. I mean what company takes the liberty to not glue in any of the magnets?

fr... I did the whole MS puzzle combo deal when they first came out
... but I don't do triangle ...
so I gave the pyraminx to my girl
... and within a week some of the magnets had come loose inside... then there was a drop and some pieces popped and also came apart ... and magnets went flying ...
ya gotta love consistency
... but I don't do triangle ...
Okay, I'm off school and have been practicing pyra a bit, and I remember all my algs still. hard part is finger tricking and holding the puzzle, but I'm getting a lot of sub 10 solves. It's not too hard to look-ahead. I dnf a lot tho. I always lose track of the pieces and I spend like 10 sec finding it lol. my best solve so far is a 7
You have a WCA account now, right?
You can use CubePB to track your PBs( idk about previous ones though, I guess you could cycle back through your old ones in CSTimer )

So uh, quick life update...don't worry, it's nothing personal or weird.
It's a schedule change, and actually it's pretty cool ngl.
So, I've sorta gone full time college. Meaning I don't take anymore normal HS classes. I just take college classes, and because of something called dual-enrollment, I get credit for HS and college. The best part is that I've made a foolproof schedule so that.......

okay guys, I came up with my own method (99% sure it's original, I flipped through the wiki) and right now, I'm averaging 30 seconds on it. it's not a fullstep method; it's just for f2l.
Here's how it works (excuse not too very good explanatory methodology)
First of all, there is some lookahead involved, but not much really and it's only hard because it is different.
Okay, the first step is to make a line in the e slice (the following colors are specific to this scram) using the red, blue, and orange centers and by connecting them with red/blue and orange/blue edges. this step is simple and only took two moves i think.
the next step is to make 3/4's of the cross on the side that doesn't have the line made. in this case, I made it with blue/white, red/white, and orange/white edges.
next is to insert the white/red/blue and white/orange/blue corners into the right spots in the white layer.
insert with D2 forming a 2x3 block.
that was the hard part, but notice how there are zero rotations and the lookahead isn't that bad. then make the final 2 f2l pairs and just do oll and pll.
Why I think I'm not an idiot:
This solve ended being 54 moves long which is average. I should also note that I solemnly swear that this was a random scram I took and I did not down solve it or fmc it whatsoever. I just went "bla bla bla this is what I'd do and whatever," and yeah, it averaged out to a normal cfop solve. Someone mentioned to me that this is a lesser efficient x-cross, and if that is true, then guess what? I just taught myself to make an x-cross every single solve without rotations. the only rotations in this solve are the two in the beginning which are lookover and one during the my last two pairs because I didn't know that advanced case. Feel free to rip me up in the replies and tell how many people I copied and ripped off lol and how stupid my solution is.
, so hopefully I can get that down a little. other news is that the qiyi ms isn't too hot lol. I mean what company takes the liberty to not glue in any of the magnets?
