Hello forum!

[fept zhanchi]

Hello forum, I have been cubing since Christmas 2013 and have come quite far, my best time is 22 seconds.

I joined this forum so I could chat to other cubers, there are only 3 more people in my school who can solve a Rubik's cube and they use the beginner method still. There will soon be 4 other school solvers because I am teaching a girl the beginner method (she now knows the orientation of the last layer.)

I live in the UK in the south west and have finished f2l! I am around 2 thirds through OLL and am 5 sevenths (to be precise) through PLL . I learned 1 'G' perm and used mirror and inverse algorithm skills to work out the other 3, without those skills, I would never have learnt a third of the OLL and half of the PLL!

Welcome! There aren't many cubers here in the southwest unfortunately, and as a result there aren't many competitions here; most are in/near London or the north.
I would advise learning PLL before OLL; PLL is more useful than OLL. If you can use 2-look OLL, that should be enough for now. Full OLL really isn't necessary to get fast! It does help though But 57 is quite a lot of algs to learn.

Welcome! I can understand your struggle of not knowing many people that cube, but speedsolving.com helps with that!
