After learning full PLL and getting them down, I moved onto learning full OLL.. and I find that I learn at an extremely inconsistent pace :/
People always seem to say that you should learn them steadily, a few at a time etc etc..

But I'll go a few days without learning any new ones.. but I'll cube a lot.. then on days like today when I feel like learning .. I'll pick up my alg sheets and use the wiki to make sure they're optimal algs, learn them.. and start practicing again for a few days..

Today though, in 4 hours .. I learned 7 OLL's..
And I do seem to be retaining them all
I suppose it's because the ones I learned are so similar to eachother..
I learned the two "Square" cases,
two "Lightning bolt" cases (the ones that are the Squares backwards),
two "No edges solved" cases.. The ones with two corners adjacent to eachother (These 2 were all I originally intended to learn)
and an alg I noticed was very easy, one of the L cases.. I don't know how to describe it but the alg is F (RUR'U')x2 F'.. so I obviously had to learn that one :o

Anyone else learn like this sometimes? Or do you think it would be better to learn them at a more steady pace? :eek:
