By finished do you mean you just know the algs, or do you actually implement them in your solves? I feel like a lot of people confuse them when learning mass amounts of algs.

Both. The recog is slow initially but It improves a heap over time. I don't count an alg as learnt unless you can use it in solves

Also Thanks Praetorian!
 
im just gonna put it here instead of starting a thread. the new home page should have the recent threads visible.... its a lot smoother that way IMO.
not hating, just a suggestion

I agree. Meanwhile I'm sure you've figured out but for anybody having trouble from the new homepage, go to Forums -> Home and you'll get the old style recent threads bar at this url: https://www.speedsolving.com/old/index.php
 
Nothing too special about the average, but 2 sub-2's in the average :)

Average: 2.46

EDIT: Another one. Not PB Ao5, but I rarely get low-2ish averages, so this is quite nice

PB Ao5 and tied my PB Ao12. Could have been better if I didn't have 2 counting 11's. I had a breakthrough about lookahead a few days ago (basically, I wasn't looking ahead at all, and now I am). That's why my times have dropped a bit recently. :p

Now to get rid of cross on top :p Honestly, if you did that, you'd be sub 10 already.
