For those who care at all..

I'm tired of solving a Rubik's Cube in 12 seconds and feeling disappointed. I just need a break for a while. I don't know if it'll be 3 days or 3 weeks. We'll see. I'll be back eventually though.

lol at your signature following that. Thought it was part of the post. Are you leaving the forum temporarily, too?

I'll check out what's going on on here whenever I feel like it. I'm just not going to be on here for 5 hours a day anymore.

Hi guys, did I miss anything?

Not really. Dan still rulez on big cubes.

Are you back?

Reading that and then following it with your sig caused a cheer that made up for 1/3rd of the sad and confused feeling I had before reading your sig.

Take a break for a day or two, and then come back and just clean your cube. Relube it, and practice turning slower. Then more sub-11 avg12s?

Temporarily, possibly.

Cool! Hope to see you again at a competition someday.

Good plan, you'll find that in not much time you actually really fancy doing it again and you'll probably practice harder than before

I MIGHT switch back to fridrich...
I thought Roux was the funnest method in teh world. I even forced myself to have reasons to switch from fridrich. But now, =/. Maybe I just need to get better at blockbuilding, but it's not for everyone.

I'm thinking about it.

Wait until you've got a sub20 ave100... Then you're allowed to switch back.

That'll take too long
I'll see how things go.

I quit doing OH with LH. I have practised non-stop with LH, but I am still faster with RH on which I did basically no practise. I now will compete in the race to sub 30 thread RH. I have a long way to go

And also, I've changed main speed cubes. From A-V to A-III-F (I'm not sure if it's A-III or A-III-F, are they the same?) And I now tend to have sub 10 f2ls because slow-turning on this cube is great. I slow turn for the first few slots, then all out blast for last slot and LL. Sometimes, If I'm working on a pair and I know it won't effect say a solved pair next to it, I turn fast. And by slow turning, it's really slow turning.

 

[Zane_C]

I quit 2 hand 3x3 speedsolving until I need to submit my score for the forum comp sometime next week.
I want sub 30 avg12.

I've been meaning to post this for some time. I quit cubing. Yea I know I'm not a well known/popular user and no one might not really care about me but I thought I'd mention this. I just cannot have fun speedcubing anymore, it's just too boring now, I'm never cubing again and it makes me sad to say that I'm leaving especially how I've been cubing for about 3-4 years. It was cool going to competitions and seeing other cubers and all but yea. If anyone really cares and wants to ask why, just MSN me or something. Well that's all. Goodbye speecubing.com and every cuber out there, it was fun while it lasted. </stuff>

I am officially quitting cubing until 11:11 pm on June 5th 2010. I need to focus on finishing up the school year. I will not visit this site (or any other cubing related sites), or pick up any cube until that date. See you then!
