You use beginner's method right? If so, what algorithms do you use?

 

[AJT17]

Don't feel as though you can't show any great accomplishments of yours just because there are a lot of faster people, we celebrate all milestones and goals, so feel free to show any other achievements you get throughout your cubing journey. Congrats on a sub one minute time.

Yea beginners method for the most part, I am starting to use f2l a bit more and use the sexy move and sledge hammer and trying to pick up on oll and pll a little bit.

Thank you for your words of encouragement,means a lot

Your welcome. We were all at your speed at one point or another, sometimes encouragement is one way to become faster and enjoy cubing more.

F2L is mainly intuitive, so you wouldn't need to memorize most of the algs. Once you understand the concept its really easy. Just try to do simple moves to pair the F2L pair up or into a three mover. I personally didn't memorize any F2L, once I understood the concept I caught on the idea.

You should learn PLL first as it only has 21 algs, taking on OLL can be quite a challenge.
Don't get discourage by other people who are faster than you, just try to beat your own records and improve over time

Thanks for the info I will definitely follow those suggestions

35:53.98 for my first solve on my 11x11! Sub 30 should be easy.

Nice, I am nearly sub 30 minutes for 10x10, good luck on your sub 30.

I just did my 4,000 solve, and these are my averages.

3rd solve on 11x11 is 29:28.05! my PB on 10x10 is 25:xx, shows how better the Meilongs are compared to the old Shengshous.

 

[porkynator]

Official 8.58 3x3 average (Roux)!

Spoiler: Video

I also got a 8.96 average in the previous round at the same comp.

After on/off cubing for 20+ years I finally decided to become colour neutral. And after just over a month I now am
I honestly cant believe it, I never thought it would be something I could do.
(now I can finally follow along with youtube walkthroughs by all the top cubers

After 3 months of putting it off, I finally learnt the final H COLL.
Yes, it took me 3 months to learn one alg.
I put it off because I didnt want to learn full COLL yet, so i decided to learn H cases since there's only four, but i still couldnt learn the last one for some reason, this one F (R U' R' U) (R U2 R' U') (R U R' U') F.
But i finally did.

I cleaned out my cube last night, then I just magically became sub 20 seconds, after being around 20 seconds. It was only a couple of months since I cleaned out my cube last, so it wasn't that bad.

 

[AJT17]

I just got 12.067 seconds with this scramble and it is a new pb, but my execution was bad.

fast
i got 15.63+ first try, normal solve for me

reconstruction of your solve:

y' z2 // inspection
L F U R2 y F R' F' D2 // cross
U' R U2 R' U R' U R // p1
U' L' U L U2 L' U' R U' R' L // p2
y' R U R' U' R U R' L' U' L // p3
y U2 L' U' L U2 L' U' L // p4
U' L' U' L U' L' U2 L // oll
// pll skip

try using alg.cubing.net for your future reconstructions, is not that hard

Ok, I didn't have the website before, so I would have to do it by hand, thanks for the website.

Doing a recon in the proper format just need to group the moves into:
inspection, F2L (one for each pair), OLL, and PLL.
