fast execution and slow memo.

fast execution and slow memo.

faster than some of mine badder executions, yet memo against solve time is not good. 0_0

First multi attempt in a long time, and a success. 2/2 in 13:18.66. I'm going to really try and make it a goal to do a multi everyday until Nats, since I did sign up for it.

That felt good. Not many great solves, but really nice and consistent. There was one really near miss at my PB Ao5 as well.

Got a 11/12 in 51:43 at Italian Open, new PB for me and new French NR

That is nice.
Congratz!

Hand-scrambled 52.25 [18.9x].
One corner solved, but corner memo was very fluent and easy, although cycles weren't.

First sub2 (also sub1:50)
1:47.70
F D2 R2 F' U2 F R2 B L2 D2 U B' F2 D' L R B2 U L F'
Execution: M2/OP
Memo: Letter Pair words (no images)

Spoiler: Scramble info

3 twisted corners and 2 flipped edges

I had been trying to get sub2 for the past three days, with many close sub2 DNFs and barely sup2 successes (best was 2:00.95). Finally got it
Also, I don't time memo, but splits are usually around 50-50.

Finally chose DF as my buffer. Adding comms to M2. Starting today with DF->FU->XY

What was your before before? M2 has DF as a standard buffer, right?

 

[Noahaha]

Yeah but I couldn't decide whether to stick with DF or switch to UF when going to 3-cycles.

 

[Mike Hughey]

DF is what I use for BH edges. It means I can use a lot of M2 or M2-like algs for BH.

That's why I'm sticking with DF.

Mike, you can use m2 like algs with any buffer.

 

[Mike Hughey]

Mike, you can use m2 like algs with any buffer.

Of course you can. But since DF is probably the most common buffer used for M2 (and is the buffer I used for M2), I thought it would be useful to point out that someone who learned that way can switch easily from DF buffer for M2 to DF buffer for BH - that way you are already using a lot of the same algorithms (some pure, some with shortcuts) - there's less to relearn. (Looking back on it, I realize I didn't say that at all. But it's what I had in mind.)

I completely agree.

I was able to learn all the DF->FU cycles in about an hour, and they are all extremely easy. I can sub 2 all of them and sub 1.5 some of them, which is surprising to me since there are very few corner cycles I can even do sub 2.5. Edges are fun.

What you said was fine, the meaning was totally clear to me at least.

Your attitude on ss is really annoying. Don't be that condescending to anyone (like you have been plenty of times after and before your ban), let alone someone like Mike, please.
