I can confidently say I can recognize and execute 49/57 of the OLLS; Only the dots left to learn this weekend! Still lots of improvement to be had on execution but I’m feeling good about my last few weeks of effort!

My first 10-ish squan solves were anywhere between 3 and 10 minutes, depending on if I got parity (since I hadn’t learned the alg yet). So I just rescrambled the whole thing and prayed that I wouldn’t get it again.Memorized the squan parity alg. I can completely solve one by memory now.

Use better scrambles. 21 moves QTM isn't nearly enough.I used the old style scramble for this but instead of 70, I set it to 21 moves
Scramble: DR DBR D DL U DBR DBL F U BR F L DL DR BL F DBL DBR DR DL U
its still scrambled isnt it?Use better scrambles. 21 moves QTM isn't nearly enough.

Is there such a thing as kilo oll and pll?www.speedsolving.com
"Not solved" is conventionally different than "Scrambled". A single turn makes a cube "not solved", but most people would not consider it "scrambled", per say.its still scrambled isnt it?
nice with the ZBLLs but there isnt any 1 move scrambles its 21. I just asked in the kilominx discusion what is a good amount of moves for the old style scrambles so i ill hopefully find that out today"Not solved" is conventionally different than "Scrambled". A single turn makes a cube "not solved", but most people would not consider it "scrambled", per say.
Imagine doing 10 moves to a 3x3. It would look relatively scrambled and it would certainly be "not solved", but there aren't enough moves to reach enough states for it to be fully scrambled for speedsolving purposes. The same thing applies to kilo. I don't know what the exact numbers are, but 21 definitely isn't enough.
Other news: I'm done with L, so now I'm at 402 ZBLLs, with only Anti / Sunes remaining
nice solves! trying to become CN?Generated By csTimer on 2020-11-27

Managed a sub-15 ao50 without using white/yellow F2L at all.
Not full CN per se, but neutral enough that I can better make use of easy xcrosses. I keep stats on when I deviate from the norm and go for non-white/yellow F2L, and so far the times I get on non-white/yellow (even with easy xcrosses!) are somewhat worse than my global average (14-ish versus 13-ish).nice solves! trying to become CN?
Me too! I'm slightly worse on green/blue compared to white/yellow but not by muchI'm also sort of quad CN on 6×6×6 (white/yellow/red/orange) because I do the combined OLL parity thing, so this CN practice helps with that too.
Haven't mentioned 8x8 for a while.
Tantalisingly close to 30m today, 30m7.3s, that damn pll parity spoiled it...
