Technically, your rephrase just cancels itself out. This place is newb-friendly(read, newb, not noob), but it doesn't appreciate too much spam.
And welcome back to the forums.

I think I'll quit buying anything else once my last shipment for a long, long time. That means I won't be getting any China V-Cubes, any real V-Cubes, anything else. Boo, I'll never solve a 6x6 now

 

[TioMario]

I quit the way I practice cubing.
I spend a lot of time just solving over and over again, not really improving or doing anything productive

Yeah, i quit that too.
I ALSO quit -2 look PLL

I'm changing my sedentary lifestyle. I'll start going to the gym on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays

I'm going on a 9 day vacation to visit my family in California this Christmas! I won't have internet, so I'll be pausing from all forum related stuff for a while. I haven't seen my grandparents and my Mom's side of the family in over a year, so I'm very excited!

Merry Christmas everyone, and Happy New Year! See you all in a little over a week!

Chris

I QUIT
Using 2-Look PLL,
Not learning parity algorithms,
And staying on 2LOLL.
I'm gonna try to learn at least half of 1LOLL.

 

[Overtime]

I learn more full pll algs and eventually full oll then improve my f2l

I've learned 4x4 parity and solved my first 5x5s (digitally)

I quit cubing. I know, it sucks but my mom is forcing me to do it. Hopefully I'll go to at least one comp during the summer though.

I quit 100% participation on all events in the weekly competitions. Because I have so much trouble resisting competitions, I know myself well enough to know the only way I will succeed is to have very specific rules that I must follow. So, for all of the competitions for 2010, here are my rules, for each online competition:

1. I may still compete in any BLD event, to whatever degree I wish.
2. I may still compete in any non-BLD event, as long as I do it BLD. I figure this is safe because there's no hope I will become fast enough to do everything BLD. That allows me to still do a 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 BLD solve each week, which I feel I need to continue to do, because it keeps me up to speed on 5x5x5 BLD. I could also see myself continuing to do Magic and Master Magic thanks to this rule.
3. I may compete in any one other event each week, but only one. I will probably choose a different event each week.
4. Once per quarter, I may at my discretion compete in every event, disregarding the above rules. You can't expect me to do without entirely, can you?

I know this doesn't sound like much, but it's a huge cutback for me.

The same rules apply for the computer competition, except that I may always do 3x3x3 speed in addition to 3x3x3 BLD, just to give me practice to warm up for 3x3x3 BLD, since otherwise I have almost no hope of being able to control it.

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

I start doing all events again in the weekly competition, because I have the feeling I might be able to win 2010 with Mike quitting.

I quit cubing. I know, it sucks but my mom is forcing me to do it. Hopefully I'll go to at least one comp during the summer though.

So what this means is, you will stop cubing for a week, then practice a lot and get really good

 

[xXzaKerXx]

I Quit big cubes and start working on the 3x3 and BLD, and possibly learning a square-1, if i can find it
