Wow...

My average of 5 is 45.57 right now for 3x3 and I broke in my 2 new storeboughts

I still have 5-6 seconds to shave off (shaved off the first 5 seconds just with 30 minutes of practice at look ahead)

I doubt ill get to the 4x4 thing tho, I might but who knows

Keep changing my goals for BLD. Forget about the Turbo now, I'm doing M2/R2 (I keep switching). Plus, the sub-4 i want to be sub-5, because I'm really doing bad with BLD.

 

[Crossed]

Goal:
-Consistently sub-30 3x3x3
-Learn all PLLs.
-Learn some more OLLs.
-Consistenly sub 2mins 4x4x4. (Currently 2-3mins)
-Sub 18 PB.
Deadline: Before my birthday 12. march.

April 2009
2. Learn all COLLs and get comfortable using them in real solves of sub-17 average.
July 2009
3. Finish Learning TuRBo corners and using it to average sub-30 on 2x2 BLD.
December 2009
4. Sub-45 single on computer 4x4
March 2009
5. Sub-80 Average on real 4x4
March 2009
6. Develop my pyraminx method. Learn all 20 algs and sub-7 with it.
Eventually whenever I get interested in that again. Maybe July 2010.
7. BLD 3x3 in less that 2 min on average.
Apirl 2010

surely using full VH when you dont know full COLL is pointless? it will probably just makes you slower!

if i were you, i would finish COLL first, and practice it on the 2x2, while finishing off VH. i mean, VH isnt that many algs, many of which are quite similar and intuitive.

right...?

 

[Vulosity]

Goal
Get sub 15 average of 10/12 of 3x3
Get sub 1:15 average on 4x4
Get sub 2 on 5x5 (Just have to shave off 10 seconds)

Deadline

Well, I like learning things that I can immediately incorporate into my solving.
I've gotten down the execution and recognition of about 30% of VHF2L and 4 COLL cases. I plan on learning both at the same time, but I'll probably finish VH first because there are less cases and it's easier to memorize. It certainly would not slow down my times.

Goal:
-Consistent sub-30s 3x3x3
-Consistent sub-40s one hand 3x3x3
Deadline: sometime soon, hopefully mid march

 

[Escher]

fair enough. the way i see it is that i'd get grumpy every time i didn't know the coll case, and it would put me off using vh-ll

in fact, you know at least 7 COLL cases, and probably 8. or do you mean 'four coll cases on top of the OCLLs' ?

If I don't know the case, I'd do regular OCLLs. I mean I can rapidly recognize the 4 COLLs as COLLs that always lead to EPLL. There are maybe 8 more that I can recognize slowly and maybe 8 more that I know, but can't recognize at all and may possibly be repeats.

ahh, ok. lol, you should talk to Jude - he learnt all of CLL (which included a few coll algs at the time) in about 5 days over new year
im also trying to learn C(o)LL - is it just me, or is it harder to remember the cases that an alg goes with than a case?

I completed all the BLD goals. For learning OLLs, I decided I want to just use my two-look OLL with partial edge control in the Last Layer during F2L, so I don't have to memorize any more LL algs.

So my new goals are as follows:

Goals
Get sub-20 averages
Learn partial edge control
Get consistent sub-5 BLD with 75%+ accuracy.
