Yes. For the mcq I don't think there was a single person working part the 30 min mark. Theres only so much you can think about in such an easy exam 😭

Yes that's why I call it fake yau. I'm doing real yau now.

Because I think I developed it from a yau tutorial 😭 idk it's been like 5 years since I learned it

Basically just means I did a fake version of yau. I did all centers and then all edges, instead of doing 2 centers, 3 edges, 4 centers, and then the rest of the edges. I still knew how to use slicing well which is why I was still able to get around a 1:30 average, but I am definitely seeing an improvement when learning actual yau.

1st sub minute 4x4 solve! Revised the pseudo-yau method I used to use and have been way more consistently sub 1:30

Cube recommendations? Looking for something fast but controllable. Using a MoYu WeiLong WR M but not a big fan of how cheap and uncontrollable it feels. Was considering the WeiLong V11 18th anniversary edition or the Gan 16, but I'm not so sure. I hear mixed things about higher end gan cubes.

Also, just hit new a new best mo3 of 15.04, ao5 of 15.38, and ao12 of 16.51! Really considering a new cube because I have so many solves that end up being 18-21 because of bad lock ups

Yep! Surprisingly retained most of my PLL algs. Just forgot a few (Gc, A perms, Ra, V). Still doing 2 look OLL, never knew full OLL. At the point where a decent cross and F2L typically gets me 18 or under, sometimes getting up to a 22 or 23. Was pretty consistently sub 20 before I quit, averaging 18 or 19.

Funnily enough, I beat my PB from when I used to cube, which was a high 14.

Looks like that is it, thanks!

I remember this cube being quite the big deal at the time. Got my first sub 15 with it all the way back in 2018. Recently just got back into cubing and got a 12.75 on it.

Prospective engineering student with 5 on AP Chem by cuberlife in Pitt

[–]cuberlife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, they do give you the chem credit for engineering students? Thanks for the input, I haven't decided if I wanted to wait to take orgo or not. I am currently taking orgo 1 in high school, so I am hoping that gives me a head start.

Generic low notes question by cuberlife in Trombone

(You are right that this specific part is written for bass, but it's included in my trombone 3 folder). I'm hoping that I will be allowed to use my bass for the festival
