  • This is a necropost but I have just gone through this.

    First I learned to do the cross in 8 moves or less.

    For the L1 corners and L2 edges, there were so many F2L algorithms I did not end up memorizing them. I learned 3-4 with the intent of memorizing but once I saw how they worked it was easier to figure it out in the fly based on location and orientation of the corner and edge I need.

    My solutions are probably not optimal, but I am getting much faster at identifying and executing the F2L moves through practice; it is becoming intuition and muscle memory through repetition. I also started incorporating empty corners into my solves before I got good at “normal” F2L but I’m not sure if that helped me or hurt me. It feels good to save turns and often times I can use that to pull pieces I need to the top.

    Eventually I am going to try each F2L algorithm at least once to see if I am missing any clever tricks. I am waiting until I have a better feel for doing it on my own so that I would recognize potential improvements.

    You are welcome to teach from your list of ML books and I am welcome to choose if I attend your class. What is profound to one person may not interest another and vice versa.

    I can strongly recommend some Anishinaabe novels but that does not mean everyone has to read them.



  • Who decides what is required? That doesn’t make any sense. You can recommend awesome books to your friends (have you read Meditations by Marcus Aurelius?) but they are not compelled to do so.

    If I see books on your recommended list that I either liked or hated I may be more or less inclined to read your recommendations, but calling a book a “must read” is egotistical.
