Another round of "new cube, new PBs":

444 (Wuque M (DIY) → Meilong 4 M)
ao12: 43.x → 42.745
ao50: 45.203 → 45.170
ao100: 46.018 → 45.526

Slowly defecting from the Qiyi cult—now my only Qiyi mains are 555 (Valk 5) and 777 (Wuji M). Also 222 (Wuxia), skewb (Wingy), pyraminx (Bell v1), megaminx (Galaxy v2 M) if you count events I don't actively practise. I would have gotten the Qiyi clock, but they were out of stock.
 
I am too! If you want to solve it in a more intuitive way with less algs, you might want to take a look at the Lin method.

I'm practicing cube shape and the first two blocks (which to me is the most important part), so then all I need to do is learn like 8 algs (and parity :(). It's a challenging, but interesting puzzle!

Square1 is one puzzle I just cannot solve, I can it get into cube shape with difficulty, but then all this (-1,3) etc business confuses the heck out of me. :(

I did get my first sub 7m Megaminx solve this morning though : 6:54.16. :)

quick guide on square one notation

/ = basically an R2 on 3x3

(x, y) = X is how many 30 degree turn you do on the U face. Y the same for the D face


moving over by one edge = 30 degree turn

moving over by one corner = 60 degree turn

Right. And " - " means " prime"
You can also think of it as 1 edge is 1. Since the corner takes up 2 edges, one corner is 2.

lol the cults are long gone.
