Also proud of this one because of the counting 13-

A few more Sub-17 averages of 5 and also this:

Many more sub 17 Averages of 12 including a 17.24.

Anyone have a good advanced cross tutorial? My one look isn't that good and I need to figure out better X-Crosses.

You will probably get that ao5 officially if you joined last few days.

The scrambles were easy? Then again I probably would've popped a lot if I participated lol

They are ridiculously easy, I'm not even close to sub 20 globally yet. And I locked up a good 3 seconds on the first solve. And I skipped CP on the first two solves. And Nathan is supposed to get 13 on the last solve if not for a penalty.

Can confirm. I'm super rusty with sq1 and got a 15.14 avg on them.

Damn it, got a 17.81 avg5 and a 11.68 single with lock ups

Where are you getting the scrambles from?

Easy scrambles + not much parity + in the zone

I've done 300+ square-1 solves today, I need a break

3x3 PB Ao5: 19.60 seconds. Veeery close to consistently being sub-20. I'm averaging around 21-22 seconds now.

 

[IRNjuggle28]

A solve with 1:33 centers is sub3-able
Practice edges

I don't know a way to get scrambles with centers solved, to practice edges alone, or any particular things to practice in terms of edges. I sometimes practice centers alone, but haven't found a good way to do that with edges--any tips?

 

[Iggy]

Decided to film some megaminx solves, tried to get a sub 1 on cam and I ended up getting a 54.43 single, wat. PB and first sub 55

 

[TDM]

Actually learned all Ortega algs, and can do the Sune from 3 different angles. I hope to learn all or most of the algs from as many angles as possible. The 2x2 is pure fun.

You can do 4 angles quite easily:
R U R' U R U2 R'
y L' U2 L U L' U L (or R' F2 R U R' F R; same thing, executed slightly differently)
y2 L U L' U L U2 L'
y' R' U2 R U R' U R

You can do a similar thing for antisune from all four angles.
