new 4X4 PB woohoo Hoya just gets better and better
global avg is sub 1:10 now BTW
53.609

 

[OLLiver]

OMMMMMGGGGG!!!!!! SORRY FOR THE DOUBLE POST BUT WHAT JUST HAPPENED!!!!
1:03.737, (53.609), (1:14.123), 54.305, 54.129 =57.390 AVG OF 5!! I wasn't expecting a sub 1 avg for weeks yet!
Lol 1 week ago I was avg 1:35 seconds.....like I can't even I need to learn a OLL parity alg that takes less than 8 seconds lol

Mega PBs after one day:
2:41 single
2:59 ao5
3:05 ao12

Must get sub-2 by next Saturday

Oh, come on! You all make me wanna stop cubing altogether...! No, not really but almost. GJ by the way. From 6 to sub-3 in a day!!!!

I'm at around 5.30 Ao50 with Ortega and thinking about learning CLL but not sure if it's worth it yet. I think there's still room for improvement to sub-5 with some added PBLs and improved OLL prediction.

How easy are you finding recog? Also can you one look most of the cases or do CLL case recog mid-solve? I'm afraid that would make me even slower than Ortega because of CLL recog.

I already knew COLL for 3x3 so recognition wasn't a problem, I was just sick of having a solved top but unsolved layer. I'm an all rounder so I think CLL is a great method, sub 3 when practiced.

Yeah, I know where you come from, I also hate when I purposely chose a side where I can make a face with diag swap, instead on an easier layer or face with bar, just hoping for a diag swap on top to go R2 B2 R2 and done... only to get a solved top layer and have to turn the cube upside down and do a horrible Y-perm. I have to check alternative algs for T and Y perm and specifically for down permutation, to avoid the z2 rotation but I haven't found anything I can perform faster than the already tried and tested T and Y perms.

My problem is, as I said, with recog, as I don't have experience yet with any similar sets like COLL, CMLL etc. and to avoid that the only way to go is one looking the solve during inspection but to force a layer, except in trivial cases, it takes some 4-5 moves and on those conditions I cannot predict both CO and CP for the top layer to be able to one look. I just don't have the spatial vision to do it. Which takes me to the need to follow CLL with EG-1 and EG-2 and those are too many algs for somebody that is gonna be slow anyway due to TPS limitations. Imagine I learn all those 126 algs to just keep getting 4 and 5 second solves like I do now with Ortega

 

[JackJ]

GJ man! It must be great to see improvement after what I could guess has been a long time at a plateau

Thank you, it really does. I was stuck around 13-14 for years!! Now I'm finally starting to get over it.

I think I can improve really fast at first because I'm sub-12 on 3x3, so I'm just learning to apply the skills I already have to a different puzzle. My PBs are now 2:00 single, 2:19 ao5 and 2:28 ao12.

 

[YouCubing]

awwwww yea
12.86 3x3 single, 4th best. Not all my top 5 singles are 12s
