Waffle's Roux Tutorial

hmm...it seems that I misinterpreted the method a tad, but I meant learning algs for cases that I usually suck at for regular Roux solves.

Would that be for orientation, L+R placement, or the M-ring? I think I might switch to using this for all of my solves, seems pretty fast, I'm calculating the average move counts right now.

umm...bad cases for all of those.
Spread throughout.
I'll dedicate an hour to getting 'algs' that I'll use tomm.
avg of 50: 36.52
sub35 tomm.

What's NMCMLL all about?

non matching blocks.
 
No. I hate that approach of 'one step at a time.'
I learned F2L, OLL, and PLL simultaneously. It's the way I work.
Over the next week or so, I'll be working on blocks, CMLL, NMCMLL (I get the main concept, and I've even applied it to 2x2FMC because I was bored), and some 'algs' for the last 6 edges.

The time you save by doing NMCLL you will lose on recognition. I can guarentee it.

ugh...how many times must I say this?
The only 'times' that I actually care about are OH BLD Magic ItA. :p

I like this concept, and plan to get good at it eventually.
It's like learning F2L rather than keyhole. Harder to recog, but will be worth it in the long run.

Are you planning on being fully colour neutral as well?
Hmm...not now. Too much of an inconvenience. hmm...I'll give it a try.
Eventually, I'll end up staying with just one color 'sheme,' probably, so I don't go too crazy :p


Basically, I don't think it'll be worth it in the long run.
 
but will be worth it in the long run

So you think that after your first block, scanning the entire cube, determining which of the 4 blocks is better to make, putting it together and trying to make up your recognition for an NMCMLL case is faster than starting the next block as soon as you finish the first and doing CMLL with lightning fast reaction?

let me put this shortly.
I'm beginning to like FMC.
 
I think I'm going to leave fridrich and stick with roux now, I like the freedom on the blockbuilding! Only a week in and I already cut off 20 seconds! :D
 
Interesting, I wonder why I never came across this on youtube, I watched the whole tutorial, I'm still in the process of learning full CMLL, I hope the anti-sune comes up soon.

They're relatively new. About 3 months old. I've only been doing the CMLL cases this month

How would you organize the cases like on the site made by Gilles Roux?

What do you mean. Roux's charts were hard for me. I recognized them as CxLLs. The chart here shows which pieces move and how to recognize. Then you can apply the Roux CMLL algorithms for that case.
