Haven’t really been actively cubing much
Reading and gaming are currently taking up my time lol. I’ll do some more solves after this week though

What games do you play?

Looks like I’m switching to petrus lol

Mostly Minecraft (bedwars). I sometimes play things like Overwatch and some RPGs though.

MINECRAFT
I built a giant Rubiks Cube in Minecraft in survival (stickerless and the black was obsidian)
white- iron
red- redstone
blue- lapis
green- emeralds
yellow- yellow concrete
orange- red sandstone

For the next few weeks I’m going to be focusing on ZBLL again. I started it a while back, but kind of gave up, so yeah.
I’m restarting the effort.
I’ll also be casually cubing a bunch, and since I haven’t really gotten any PBs or such to share on here, I’ll occasionally drop in just a random ao5 picture or two a week

This isn't true, taking a break will usually slow you down.
You just have to practice the right things.
If you know you are inefficient(or rotate to much @PetrusQuber lol)
than focus on that specific thing.
and once you think you actually have good habits practice doing solves

same as tiring yourself out.

 

[Nir1213]

I’ve already done so, didn’t help

take a longer break, just stop and stop thinking about cubing.

 

[PetrusQuber]

But seriously, think about it.
Why does it help?

 

[DNF_Cuber]

it doesn't. I took a break for 2 weeks or so and I was 3 seconds slower on 3x3

 

[Nir1213]

Why does it help?

helps you from tiring yourself out i guess. I guess it might not work for some people.

With my cubing time right now, no chance of being tired out lol.

Yesterday I revised all my old algorithms from the first set, planning to continue today

 

[PetrusQuber]

Bunch of school stuff and other things lately, but l did 4 new algorithms today, so 8 more to finish for 24 ZBLL algs known

Actually, learning those four algs today was so easy I might ramp the pace up to 4 a day (28 a week). That means I’ll be done in 16 weeks!
I mean how hard can it be when one guy managed to finish zbll in a few weeks doing 12 a day lol.

Obviously this is excluding drilling, so I can’t sub 2 the new algs comfortably yet.

 

[PetrusQuber]

Learnt another 4 ZBLLs, although two of them are taking like 5 seconds to execute so far lol
@ObscureCuber any progress from you?

 

[LukasCubes]

how many ZBLL do yall know @PetrusQuber @ObscureCuber i know 85

 

[Nir1213]

i know all zblls. To do a zbll all you have to do is spam U R U' L' U R' U' L and hope the corners orient then you flip the cube upside down and spam sexy to fix the corners and then do AUF and done.

... and that is the exact opposite of the intention of ZBLL, which is to shorten the solve, not spam useless moves which could be done regularly.

Also his "ZBLL" is more like 2 look L4C, since it doesn't affect the EP
