    tips from my experimentation: if u speak english, u can optimise the memo info, aka the number of syllables u memo, by using this scheme:
    (number - what u say/memo)
    0 - skip
    1 - one
    2 - two
    3 - three
    4 - four
    5 - five
    6 - six
    -1 - el (short for eleven)
    -2 - ten
    -3 - nine
    -4 - eight
    -5 - sev (short for seven)

      Some other pin orders
      I hope I wrote this in a way that makes sense
      x-y means move the x gear to the y gear
      the pin state written at the bottom is for your first corner + move 5
      this pin order moves DR/DL towards the beginning (moves 1 and 3 rather than 3 and 5)
      MEMO
      M1: u after LR moves
      M2: l-c
      M3: u-c
      M4: r-d
      M5: d-c
      EXEC
      DR c-u
      R c-l
      U c-d
      L d-r
      uduu
      This one uses a z' move to get rid of DR/DL moves
      MEMO
      M1: d after LR
      M2: l-c
      M3: r-u
      M4: d-c
      M5: u-c

    Cheat sheet for what numbers to memorize. Clocks are named after their position (R: right clock, L: left clock, C: center, etc.). Two letters means the difference (i.e. what move is needed to match the first to the second. CL would be the move needed to match the center clock to the left clock
    M1: absolute position of D + CL + CR
    M2: LC
    M3: DC
    M4: RU
    M5: UC
    also pin order:
    UR
    R (UR DR)
    D (DL DR)
    L (DL UL)
    not DR (DL UL UR)
    solve corners
    This is just a reference so I don't have to watch the video every time I forget lol

      I agree with using this as a reference so I don't have to watch the video again
      Also imagine solving the center to the left center and then the right center to find the absolute point.

    • @ChrisChoi123
      @ChrisChoi123  ปีที่แล้ว

      So it means that configuration of pins don't have any wheel turns. So for L0, the configuration when the left 2 pins are up, u don't turn any pins and u move on to the next configuration

      Perhaps you're missing a step? Or maybe you aren't tracing accurately on one of them. Or maybe you're not tracing in the right direction?

    I am following these steps as accurately as I possibly can, and yes a lot of the time it works. But frequently the back of the clock is still mixed up when I check after solving the side I didn't memorise. I have no idea why, is anyone else having this problem??

      @@ChrisChoi123 Right kind of you Chris. I've not picked up the clock in a little while as there has been a decent run of competitions as of late and I've focused on the events that I actually can enter, but rest assured I am convinced it was simple pilot error on my part. This is a great tutorial, and one that tI look forward to revisiting soon once the comps die down a bit. Thanks once again for the offer though.
