Nice are you close to BH on big cubes?

What do you mean? I use speed-optimal algs for edges and wings for some time, and just a week ago I've learnt BH for corners

I was wondering if most of the 3-cycles you use for wings/midges/centers are speed/move optimal?

I was wondering if it's worth revising all my algs to find a move-optimal case for each and whether it'd actually give me more of an advantage.

For corners, almost all algs (except cycle shifts) are move optimal. For edges and wings, all algs are "speed-optimal" (in my opinion). For centers, I just use commutators, not very optimal in moves and speed. Maybe I'll revisit centers in the future.

3x3x3 BLD execution PB

total time - 59.77 seconds

memorization - 31 seconds

execution - 28 seconds

(My 5th successful sub 1 BLD solve)

Really great execution time for me. I use advanced M2, but only for FU, BD and BU pieces at the moment. I will get used to use it for UR, UL, RB and LB soon. Corners with TuRBo. I am really used to that at least :tu

I am working on getting faster in memorization. I get more and more sub 30 seconds memos at the moment but when i memorize a bit more safety, it takes me about 30-40 seconds.
I think its better to memorize a bit more safety and get faster in memorizing safety than trying to go as fast as you can, have a 10% successrate and try to get better in that. Because a safety memo gives you faster executions because of many reasons in my opinion.
What do YOU guys think?

WHAAAAAAAAAAAT?!

I just tried to memorize fast and not safety and 90% of my memo times were sub 30 seconds. Even some sub 25 seconds. But my execution wasnt that fast afterwards, like i thought (delays and forgetting stuff).
But on one solve i remembered everything, got a fluent solve and...
BAM!!! NEW PB!!!

51.61 seconds!!!

Maybe i was wrong?! Maybe i should practice really fast memorization?!

I think both safe and pushing solves are important. You should do this and that sometimes.

Dennis, I always wonder what/where do you work? you always post at 3 in the morning (german time)^^

Really? I never thought about that. What do you mean exactly? Starting the session with some safety solves (and memos) and then do some pushing solves later, or alternately or one day this and one day that or what?

Hahahaha

EDIT: Yeah. I shat my pants. This shows that even a crappy method can yield fast times.

Wow what? You're way better than I thought you were.

 

[Ranzha]

Wow what? You're way better than I thought you were.

For single cube, I'm getting 1:40s consistently. The EPs for both cubes were easy to memo =)
But yeah, best I did before was a 4:55. I'd gotten multiple mid-5s, but nothing quite like this O_o
I'll probably not get anything near this again until I switch methods.
