[Member Intro] Rubik's cube: a Christmas gift to myself

[earth2dan]

Just tried to solve with a Blue cross instead of White. <Brain Explodes> But I was able to get it solved. F2L with blue cross was a *****, but LL wasn't as bad as I thought.

Haha. Trust me, you're not alone. I'm hopelessly a white cross solver. I can solve on any colour, but it triples my cross/F2L times. LL is just pattern recognition, so it's pretty easy colour neutral. Maybe once I chase down that sub20 on white cross I'll work on colour neutral solves... or maybe not

Great job! The F2L is certainly not as comfortable with different cross colors, but you're right that the LL is more about patterns than the actual colors.
