This could get confusing in text, so let's do this as a bulleted list to make it clear.

- Build an "outer" bar of any color, put it on the left, and do a 5r to put the bar on B. Let's say that you build a red bar first; I'll use this color as a reference point (with a white cross) for the rest of this as an example
- Build a green outer bar (while preserving the red bar's position on B), put it on the left, and do a 5r.
- Build an orange outer bar, put it on the left, and do a 5r. (So red bar is now on F, green on D, and orange on B)
- Build an red 'inner' bar, put it on the left, do a 4r. Do the same with green and then orange. Now you have a 2x4 block on the left of F, D, and B.
- This time skip red. Build another inner bar of green and orange, and line them up in place (on D and B, respectively).
- Build the final (outer) bar of green and orange and complete those centers.
- Finish the two bars of red.

This is definitely much easier for me, due mainly to the fact that the necessary moveset gets smaller as you complete more bars. The need for the 5R slice is quickly eliminated, followed shortly after by the 4R slice.

Thanks, sounds interesting, I'll try it out

That OBLBL influence :)
 
Got my first sub 18 average of 5 for the 3x3x3 today!
I watched a tutorial on blindfold solving twice two days ago, today I did 8 successful blindfold solves in a row, but I messed up on the ninth. (One cube at a time, not multiple blind) Also today I set my blindfold PR at a nice 5 minutes and 42 seconds. Yay!
 
After taking another break during cubing just slow intuitive solves with no timer I hit my first sub 15 average!
And I spiked in a 10.75 FULL solve. Look ahead is starting to work for me!

I don't even track the pieces. I just stare wide at the cube and they pop out to me!

I'm definitely going to try this system out to see how it goes :) Looks very promising.
 
Best average of 5: 3.99 PB

I'm getting better at 1-looking. But most of my times are still around 6-6.5 seconds. I just need to practice more.
