Hey All,
Yet another personal progress thread, mostly for my sake, but if I'm going to be keeping track, I might as well keep y'all updated as well!
After taking a 3-1/2 year break from cubing, I'm back at it, and sadly not as fast as I used to be
So, I have decided to come up with some goals for myself to help foster consistent practice and track improvement, but I will not really be focusing on time.
Instead, I would like to expand my knowledge of cubing and understanding of all my favorite puzzles; through learning new methods and algorithms, understanding how different moves and algorithms affect a cube, and how to incorporate all of that into my solves (hopefully resulting in better times). I also want to start contributing more to the cubing community, which a few of my goals will hopefully help me accomplish.
I'll try to post weekly updates, but since I'm living that college life it might not always happen.
Anyway, here's my current goals!
Methods/Puzzle Theory:
- Learn all advanced Pyraminx methods (For now I'm just going to focus on L4E, Oka, and 1-flip)
- Learn 4-look last layer for mega (Eventually I'd like to learn 2-look, but It'll probably be a while before that happens)
- Learn last layer algs for OH
- Learn how to do BLD
- Get consistent at cross+1 from inspection
Cubing Community:
- Attend a competition again
- Assist in organizing a competition
- Lead the organization of a competition
- Become a WCA delegate
Personal Progress/Time:
Again, I'm not really going to be focusing most of my attention on improving my times (for now), these are just benchmarks I'd like to eventually reach - no rush for me to get there.
- Create a spreadsheet that can track personal progress (time-wise)
- Sub-5 Pyra
- Sub-60 mega
- Sub-45 4x4
- Sub-20 OH
