My General Cubing Progress

[BlastKracken7]

It's done! I got all 57 done! Now I just need to be able to recognize the 2-4 I have memorized but are forgetful!
Those are 55, 56, 40 and 39!! I'm done!!!!! Technically....

GG! I'm currently "trying" to learn full OLL and I was wondering if you used any techniques during your learning that helped you out.

well i used a book to keep track of the ones i use. i would put a ? for when i just learned it and dont expect to know for when it shows up. and after every day go back and check to see if you can preform the alg. Afterwards i would then but ..? for when you can preform it but dont know if you can recognize it. thats basically all i did. it might help for you might not.

welp rip me... my comp was moved to next year.

Anyway im going to start cll on monday so expect that. I have the pictures to reference in the book so i am ready for it! i have some learned already because of them either being known by me already (S, aS, and H) or because, well, the face is solved already.

Ight so im sorry but im not going to learn cll atm.

I guess i shouldve told this weeks ago which i am sorry for. I got REALLY into blind solving and within a day of trying i actually was able to do 3bld. So rn i am a blindfolded solver until i get bored of it. so again sorry and i hope you guys have a great day. also my first 2bld try was a success even though i had yet to even try before hand.

I mean it's your enjoyment that matter the most Blind is really fun though, I just get kind of frustrated with not many successes, and the memo stresses me out.

You can create your own thread for that.

Okay, i actually didnt want that, bc there are so many... And the Idea came from Micah Morrison but i will do that

Hey guys. I know it's been almost 2 years, but after a long hiatus I'm getting back in cubing entirely. In about a week ill be able to make progress towards learning algs again. I have forgotten a good bit of OLL and so I need to relearn that first

Since I left I've stopped using the username on this account and I wish i was able to change it to what I use now, but I'm fine using this.

So yeah like I said, expect me to start doing updates again starting next week and such. I'm glad to be back.

So I was going through the speed solving wiki and I found a method that I like more than CFOP called Mehta-OS and I am deciding to switch over to that. Sure it'll take a little bit but I think it would be worth it in the end. What do y'all think?

You may want to see this thread. This was the reason a lot of mehta users switched away from mehta. While there are good things about mehta, it's also very important to look at the downsides

Pros - its majorly an alg-based method so if you can drill the algs, you'll get good at them.
Cons - way too much algs, but if you're into that sort of thing, then good for you.

I like memorizing things so it isn't such a big issue for me

OK its been a while since my last post. news.

I got a new pc since my last one died about a month ago, and soon after that post internet on my pc decided to stop working for a month.

After trying it for a bit, i decided that as of rn i am not going to go down the mehta path. Ill still help them try to make more substeps or whatever as i think it is a really cool method in the first place

i still have a good chunk of oll i need to relearn as i couldnt really go through with it

After i do relearn full OLL, i will go after learning either NS for skewb (as that will probably be my main event) or COLL. not quite sure yet as i want to get back to learning ZBLL soon

Hopefully with this new pc i can be a lot more active now.

I did get a new pb finally after 3 hole years dropping my pb down from 11.95 -> 11.66 recon down below

soon after this solve i realized that it couldve been a pll skip, but i did not notice the 1x3 block that was staring me in the face. If i noticed it, the solve wouldve been sub 10
