Probably not quite that much, I calculated it, that’s around 28 years spent just cubing

How did you arrive at 28 years? May I know.
Many sub-10 cubers have atleast done 100,000 solves of 3x3.
People who are much faster and elite, sub-6 level have done tons of solves more.

Oof. I forgot the minute conversion step (straight from seconds to hours somehow).
It just seems kind of unfeasible considering I’ve been cubing for around a year and a half, still at 12k solves, while some people get a million?
83x more solves to get from sub 13 to sub 7?

But still- 12k solves is a lot

OK- changed my Gd, Gb, and V perms because they were crap.
Gd- R U R' U' D R2 U' R U' R' U R' U R2 D'
Gb- R2 D L2 D F2 L D R' D2 L D' R' U2
V- R U' R U R' D R D' R U' D R2 U R2 D' R2
Still trying to sub-2 those pesky A perms, it's the D2 flicks that are giving me trouble.

That’s still a pretty bad alg. You should use an alg that only uses RUD moves, like this one: R' U' R U D' R2 U R' U R U' R U' R2 D.

I guess, but RUD as a moveset I find pretty hard. I'll try it though, so thanks!

You just have to figure out the right fingertricks for it. Try learning a D/D’ push with their respective ring fingers. You’ll need this for E perm no matter what (if you don’t know it already), so it’s best to learn it now.

Will I need it for E perm?

is my e perm

New E Perm
I put this in the Algorithm Sticky, but I wanted to make sure a lot of people saw it. I like it a lot, and hopefully you might too. :) U' R U R' U R' U' R F' R U R' U' R' F R2 U' R2 U R

The RUDx one is still better. There's a reason why almost everybody uses it.

I can pretty comfortably sub-1.9 itHave fun sub-2ing that.
Edit: why are you shocked? its no worse than the n perms

OK. Week 9 now, still trying to Sub-2 all algs. PLL is pretty much done except for V, Ns, Gs. Starting COLL with the L cases.

Thanks. I'm currently going for an alg a day scheme.

Hi guys, 1 T case done. Unfortunately, I fell off my chair and badly sprained (or maybe broke) my wrist. No cubing until at least saturday.

Revising L cases and just got my critique back from @FishyIshy so I'm also going to work on my cross and 2 side PLL recognition. I'll change the title later today to week 12
