Max speed I can do it in 30 minutes. But I usually take my time. I can memo a 3x3x3 in 30 seconds. So it would take only three and a half minutes if I had plenty of short term memory. ---

Feeling good. PB is now 1:16, and consistently getting 1:30-1:40. Gonna get a sub 1 minute solve on this 2 hour long car trip. I hope. Then I’m gonna learn CFOP with the free interwebs at the hotel 😛 ---

Then I’m gonna learn CFOP with the free interwebs at the hotel 😛 Speeding up that cross and f2l is an ever present goal. Knowing all the oll/pll algs will make you faster; but, there’s more speed to be gained in that darned f2l… Averaging about 1:20-1:30 solving lbl is about where I was when I started cfop. When you start cfop you’ll get slower; but, DO NOT give in and solve lbl. You’re finished with lbl now. Work that f2l and you’ll be back to 1:30 and less in no time. ---

Don’t recall seeing you before. Maybe I’m just being dumb though. If you are new, welcome, and your spot on about f2l, although knowing lots of algs can be fun. ---

I’m new to this thread. I’ve been on yye for a while though. I’ve just recently started looking at the cubing corner after I decided to get into big cubes. I just got my first 4x and 5x (yj guansu and cyclone boys.) my main 3x is the qiyi thunderclap and 2x is the yj yupo. Anyway, cubing is an on-and-off obsession with me. I’m not an expert at all; but, I may comment where my experience could help someone. It’s fun for me even if my times aren’t sub the-latest-and-greatest. ---

Just got the craziest scramble ever. 1 move pseudo x cross with rotation less f2l. I then went on to fix the edges and completely ignore an easy 2gll I knew, costing me a pb. ---

I then went on to fix the edges and completely ignore an easy 2gll I knew, costing me a pb. I don’t know. Even when I do see one of those weird cases I know, the time it takes me to realize the case and do it wastes all the time saved. ---
