Goals for the next month...

Learn full PLL, 8/21 known so far. No progress yet
Get sub 40 consistent avg 12. Only achieved once
Sub 30 single
Learn to solve 2x2/4x4 (providing I get them)
Sub 1:15 OH

Progress so far, still 3 weeks to go but I don't think I'll learn Pll's for a bit.

[TylerKerr]

learn all oll by july 25

 

[uberCuber]

sub 17 3x3x3 by end of summer

sub 17 3x3 by end of summer

learn all oll by july 25

Just so you know there is something called an edit button so you don't have to post this many times in a row.

My goal:
Stop posting goals in this thread because I always change my mind about my priorities a few days after posting anyway.

Deadline:
Now

 

[Akash Rupela]

my college starts from 17th(since then i wont get much time to cube). I plan to learn f2l algs + practice finger tricks for LL + include G perm in 1 look PLL + get sub25 avg 12 and sub30 consistent avg by then.

sud 20 3x3 deadline Nz champs

 

[OliveMaster]

Achieve SUB-35 Ao5

Deadline: December 24th 2011

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEE

 

[iEnjoyCubing]

My old goal is in here somewhere... I'm posting a bit early. It was to know all PLLs and achieve sub 30 by July 28th. I've got all of them learned but the N perms, and have achieved sub-30 so that's good enough for me. New goals:

-Know 4x4 parity algs (just 2) by the time I compete at the Barcelona Open.
-Possibly learn the N perms by the time I compete.

Deadline: July 30th

 

[cityzach]

achieve sub 15

deadline: September 8th (school starts)

 

[OliveMaster]

Goals
-Rest of pll (7 more)
-Start learning full oll (As many as I can)
-Finish my ICT H/W
-*Extra* Try to get sub 25 PB Single

Deadline
End of summer holidays (Back to school) 6th september!!

 

[MalusDB]

Goals -
Achieve consistent sub 35 averages
Sub 25 PB single (again, it was a while ago and exceedingly lucky)
Invest in a 2x2,4x4 and a 5x5
Learn solutions to above puzzles

Deadline -

EFOP - Method Idea:

Spoiler

EOline - Intuitive
First 2 1x2x3 blocks in 2 looks (Near 38-41 cases) - Partially Intuitive
OLL/PLL(28 Cases)
Total: 69 Algorithms

Breakdown EFOP:
EOline tutorial - http://cube.crider.co.uk/zz.php?p=eoline

First 2 1x2x3 blocks - ZZ Multislotting, Block Cases(Front, Back, Right, Left), Diagonal Cases(BackLeft/FrontRight, FrontLeft/BackRight)
Reading what types of block/diagonal cases there are might be a burden because it will only slow you down, but keep in mind that there are about 41 algorithms in total!

OLL - http://www.speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php/OLL
PLL - http://www.speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php/PLL



CFOP users shouldn't switch to this method, but instead just learn the 82 multi-slotting algorithms.


There are special cases for F2S in which you do the slots in diagonal order. But this is still included in the (near) 41 cases.

EFOP doesn't require much look ahead, but just remembering where pieces are for your first 1x2x3 block. When you get 1 side
completed the next side should be very easy because there are so many places 4 pieces + cross can be.

Advantages towards normal CFOP:
*50 Less Algorithms.
*F2L is solved in 2 Looks, instead of 4.
*Can be adjusted and variated(best if you know all the f2s algorithms) to do diagonals, and 2 single f2l pairs.
*Its multislotting is more efficient than CFOP's multislotting on average
*<R,U,L> Move group
*All the last layer edges will be oriented on the insertion of the last f2s block

Disadvantages:
*Requires recognition and looking ahead of 4(cross style) to 5(zz style) pieces.
*EOline may require months to complete in 15second inspection.
*A very difficult method, but very efficient and algorithm friendly.

I'm currently switching to the Roux system, after having used Petrus for speedsolving for a few years...so my goals for this are

- learn all the CMLL algorithms
deadline = August 16
- sub-30 average
deadline = August 30
- sub-20 average
deadline = September 21

I also plan to work on bettering my time with the Megaminx, blindfold cubing, and one handed...but working on the Roux system is my priority right now.

 

[chrissyD]

done my goal already so heres some new ones

2x2 sub 5
3x3 sub 16
5x5 sub 3
and if somehow if i achieve all this i'll learn square 1

 

[Felix1996]

2x2:
sub 6 save
3x3:
sub 16
4x4:
sub 1:05
5x5:
sub 2

 

[majikat]

- sub-30 average
deadline = August 30

Only a few hours after I posted this, I got an average of 29.84. Yeah!
