Bingus's progression thread: cubing in the works

I got the RS skewb and now it’s a main event. I global like 9-10, with beginners method, @CubeLite help me get better plz
I am still learning L4E, but I haven’t bcuz I’ve been really busy lately

Side event main!💪🔥🔥
🥰
Now learn polish sledge and hedge If you didn't already, and then learn Sarah intermediate, Say If You want me to send some videos for those, maybe you could try to use my short with polish sledge and hedge
I will try to help you more once my fingers recover

I basically use Sarah's intermediate. I went to her site, and the intermediate is basically what I do. I don't really want to learn NS until I am actually competent with Sarahs intermediate, what should I do?

Bro calm down, you don't need to learn NS at this moment, keep doing Sarah intermediate until like sub 8, sub 7, then learn Sarah advanced, now make your sledges and hedges faster, like sub 0.5 seconds, and your layers to be at least sub 9 moves, or sub 2 seconds
 
Got a PB ao5 and ao12 in skewb, 6.65 and 7.14. I feel like I global sub 8 now lol. I also got a 6x6, and that is fun. I have 2 upcoming comps with it, one with a cutoff of 3:30, and one with 4:00. I average around 5:00 with the few solves I've done. I got an FTO, and I am learning how to solve it. I got a kilominx, since when is kilominx fun?!? I will probably have fun with megaminx when I order a YuHu. There is an upcoming comp with mega, cutoff is 2:00.

3x3 PB2 and PB3 singles, 11.74 and 11.90. PB ao5 and ao12 because those two solves were right next to each other.

so happy for sub 14 ao12, have been grinding for that.
 
Guys I might have just gotten tied WB 1x1 single!!

single: 0.01

Time List:
0.01

It was actually 0.017, plz let me know if anyone has a faster time. @1x1 wr holder! I'm coming for you!!!
I have 0.001, but it was technically a timer malfunction as it was under 0.06. So then I got 0.060 to make sure I had the world record.
 
Goals for upcoming comp:
Make Pyra finals
This is a big one, but top 16 make it. I have a 8.75 average, Which is really bad and that places me 19th on the psych sheet. 16th is 8.26. That will be relatively easy, as I global low 7, just hoping I don't choke. Also, 7.62 average is goal.
3x3: PR's, my current PRs are really bad, I global like 14 on a good, day, and comps are usually good days for me. 12.93 single is goal
2x2: Pr average, 4.64 goal
5x5: get a decent average, don't care about this one as much though.
6x6: A long shot, but make cutoff. I need help on this, @Garf , @NebraskanSpeedsolver , please help me get better. I average like 4:30, cutoff is 3:30.
Also, with my friend I plan to do a 2 man mini guildford and possibly team blind, but those will be just for fun and not "official"

Find what you’re bad at and fix it asap.
Learn better efficiency for edge and centers, improve lookahead by being comfortable with what you’re doing and Lot looking at it, grinding parity algs, etc.
Also doing a bunch of solves help.
 
Now this is was a week and a half ago
This is a plea for help to all blinder, how to do setup moves!?!
OK so I don't really understand if you're having trouble with the concept of setup moves or the actual setup moves, I'll assume the latter since I had trouble with those for OP.

Edges-

U, V, W, X(so all the stickers on the bottom face) you can do a D move to move the piece to X, then do L2.

Example for U- D' L2 (T-perm) L2 D

For targets on the middle layer, you can move them to either L or R using wide moves and do an L' or L to setup. You can also use slice moves instead of wide moves if you prefer.

Example for P- d' L' (T-perm) L d

Example for J- d2 L (T-perm) L' d2

For targets on the bottom layer but not on the bottom face(so the targets are G, K, O and S) you can do a D move to setup to G and then do the setup for G which I will put below.

G- L d L' (T-perm) L d' L'

Example for K- D' (Do everything in G) D

I'll list the others as algs, but you can figure out how they work intuitively.

E- L' d L' (T-perm) L d' L

I- l D' L2 (T-perm) L2 D l'

Q- l' D L2 (T-perm) L2 D' l

A- l2 D' L2 (T-perm) L2 d l2

D- T-perm as it is already set up

C- l2 D L2 (T-perm) L2 D' l2

Corners-

For everything on the bottom face(U, V, W, X) it is just one D move to get it to V.

Example for X- D2 (Swapping alg) D2

For G, K, O and S you can do one D move to G then do G.

G- F' (Swap) F

Example for S- D (Do G) D'

For L, P, T and H you can do one D move to T then do T.

T- R (Swap) R'

Example for L- D2 (do T) D2

I'll list the rest as algs.

I- F R' (Swap) R F'

J- R' (Swap) R

N- R' F (Swap) F' R

B- R2 (Swap) R2

C- F2 D (Swap) D' F2

D- F2 (Swap) F2


I can't guarantee these are perfect, as I don't have a cube on me at the moment. A lot of the algs aren't the best, but work and should be fine for OP.

Tell me if you have any more problems, sorry for the wait but hope this helps!
