Discomantis's progression thread | On the bigBLD grind

[Discomantis]

Ok, so I have a two day comp starting tomorrow. I am really excited for this comp as it has 4 rounds of 2x2! anyway, here are my goals:

2x2: Podium, Perhaps a PR average and sub-1 single if scrambles are good enough

3x3: Decent averages

5x5: PR average, hopefully sub-1:50

6x6: PR single, make cutoff

3BLD: Get a success

Skewb: PR average

Pyra: PR average

Squan: Make cutoff

Megaminx: Make cutoff




Also for clock I absolutely have not practiced despite telling myself I would so I will use flip in this comp for clock

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

Ok all, so I just learned 7 simul!
However, it takes me like forever to do memo, and I am entirely relying on my notes

What I will try to do is I will try memorizing the first few letters over and over, and try to get that in my head. From there, I can add more steps as I go so I can get the method in my head.

I hope to get good at clock with this method!

Yay, another convert! Just keep doing full memo with your notes until you think you can do it without. You're going to DNF like 80% at first, but if you check what went wrong for each DNF that percentace will go down really quickly. Also don't care about inspection time, your inspection will be consistently sub 15 soon enough. Good luck with this method and with your comp!

Just so you know I am going to be using flip because I absolutely suck with 7simul

Also FYI I didn’t say this earlier but I am deciding to go with 7simul flip for now

@Discomantis i've been so tired today and I'm really nervous for the comp, but I'll see you there!

 

[Justincubes]

You"ve spelt podium wrong for 2x2
best of luck!

You have still spelt "you've" incorrectly, because contractions are indicated with single quotation marks, not double quotation marks

I would hold double SR’s if I lived there
NY SR’s are too hard

 

[2x2MasterYT]

I'm 19 in Arizona for Avg and I'm 34 for single lol

 

[2x2MasterYT]

Also you're 3rd for single and 2nd for avg, better than me lol

Maryland SR’s are objectively worse, as we have the creature known as the Will Callan (At least for second place you only have to get a sub 2 average and a sub 1 single)

Iowa is kinda difficult, because brodythecuber lives there. Also Cale schoon

@Discomantis would have state record if he lived in Iowa. Both state records.

 

[JDAW6]

Being the only cuber (I think) from my state I see this as an absolute dub

 

[Discomantis]

Ok all, so I have decided to learn TCLL+ instead of EG-2. It seems like it would suit my solving style a little bit more than EG-2, and it seems very useful for me so I am deciding to learn that instead.
