Dear John Louis, Maybe it's weird to reply to an old post with a very short question, but this group seems to be deadish for a few day, so I thought posting...
Joel, I think that's a great Idea, having categories. I once tried categories, but stuck w/ visual memorization. I use the letter pair image system for big...
So, Stefan, are you using your M2 method now? I tried using it, but starting from DF made me a bit confuse... how's it going? improving your times? Pedro ...
Yeah, He's using it. I also believe he's using his R2 method as well, arent you Stefan? ;). ... That's very clever!! I am still working on getting a list of...
... I sure am. My execution of both is good, but I still suck at memorization and recall. I rarely practice real blindcubing but I do practice speedcubing...
Dear Joel, Yeah, it is very old and I had lost track of it. As I am busy with my work, I could not go through it once again immediately and hence this belated...
Stephan, what algs do you use for the helper buffer method on big cubes blindfolded? I use A: RU'R'; B: [u] let [u] = u, u', or u2 I alterate ABA'B' and...
I've practiced A=RUR'U' and B=r *not* blindfolded and I think I used the r2 equivalent of my M2 method last time blindfolded (39 minutes for a 4x4). Don't know...
Oh, I see. To get the same to locations for my helper/buffer. I would do A: L'UL; B: [u] And I would just do a z rotation making it A: U'RU; B: [r] Still...
Hi everybody! I want to begin the art of rubik. Wich cube should I buy? I've seen that in internet they sell different version... Let me know! thanks in...

Hey everyone, I've been working on the probability of certain cases for 4x4x4 and 5x5x5 BLD wing edges and ended up with some general formulas that help for...
Hi Chris, Those are some interesting stats you have there! Thanks for sharing it with me. I guess practicing solving problems with 2 cycles will be useful. -...
Chris, have you ever thought about using PLL to solve 2-cycles on the edges? I'm use 2-cycles to solve my algs. But let's just say, we need to swap the DF and...
Hey Daniel, Yeah I'm working on a freestyle commutator approach to solving the permutation and orientation at the same time for the edges of a 3x3x3. I'll...
I can directly solve central edges freestyle-ish on the 5x5. I'm definitely going to try and freestyle the central edges on blindfolded solves. Hardwick,...
I have just started blindfold cubing and i learned from Joel Van Noort's tutorial(from the speed cubing group)and i am having an incredable amount of trouble...
Hello, Here is how I memorize, slightly different from your methods. I look at my buffer, and tap the location that will permute the piece. I say as I tap...
Hello, You could have just used my contact form to ask me. ;) The way you memorize, it looks like you memorise about twice as much information than needed. You...
Hello, After 2-3 weeks of intermitted learning/practice, I finally managed to solve the 3x3 blindfolded. And it really feels great. I learnt using the .doc...
Hello everybody, I have been working on changing my memorization method to a different one, with Persons and Actions, and store 'mini-stories' in locations of...
The key is knowing the images that you use. Through practice (and coming up w/ a decent schematic for your images) you can quickly recognize what locations...
Joel, The tutorial was great, I got everything fast, but I was just wondering, is this method fast, or how fast can this get (time wise, is it possible to get...
Hi, Thanks for your reply. I think this method definately allows sub3 times. I did 2:20 with a modified version of this. I also think the basic idea of not...
Hi everyone, I'm using the cycle method for a long time, splitting the resolution in 4 (OC, OE, PC, PE). My best time is 2:17 (done twice), but I can still be...
Hi all, I apologize if these algorithms are already well-known, but I discovered them recently. (r U r' U')*3 does a 6-flip as well as the normal (R U R' U')*3...
... Hi Joel, I have the same problem and I try to fight it by beta-blindcubing. I say: alpha: Just speedsolving using a blindsolving method. beta: Convert...
