M2 / Old Pochmann Tutorial - Part 4 - Memorizing the edges

[MrBigape1]

the cake is a lie...

[cubecraze1]

do you memorise the corners first or edges?

[blackzabbathfan]

so i am going to have to visualize what the cube looks like after every step? that sucks.

[Psychokinesismaniac]

CAKE!!!

[mynameisdarthtater]

I memorize colors instead of sticker letters, but I see how this is faster.

And I change the colors into words, but they're completely nonsensical. Like for the WG edge I think winterfresh, because winterfresh gum is white and green. Also, for the YG edge I think Yggdrasil, the tree that connects all the worlds in norse mythology. It's the only word I could think of that has a Y then a G.

[SWelsh1000]

i just cant memorize the edges and the corners at the same time:(

[IAMquickSAND]

do you use the same memorization technique for multi bld?

[dsadwede]

i think the colour code is better it works really effective on me...for edge i uses the initial of the colour like RG or GR for red green, green red and the order of them does matter, i think stefan pochmann also uses this method but he do make stories of it

[Z3R0F3AR]

I don't get how you remember how to skip your buffer piece either...

[frenchshredder]

why would you tell me to stop eating in the other video, only to tempt me with CAKE now!?

[Z3R0F3AR]

I don't get one thing... I know OP is the green/red edge (when you were listing of the letters), but how come QR isn't green/yellow?

[Tips4Cube]

make yuor own system thats best for you not best for him because ur solving not him

[xBakex]

I think letters memorization can be improved if you link to any couple of letters 1 item, easier to remember.

[baseballrg]

you and badmephistos videos are awsome, i got my first blindsolve thanks to yall, this is exactly what i was looking for

[pascalso]

hey erik, i'm having some trouble doing this thing that comes up. it's basically the parity, but it doesn't show up at the end. am i supposed to execute the edge parity alg then the R perm, or do something else?

[LNOL]

Okay, so you solve the edges and you have done an odd number of y perms. What do you do then?

[viewsat301]

how do you memorize the cube quickly...

letters like qbcvrt are not easy to remember...memorizing letters like these quickly is extremely hard....so how do you guys memorize the cube in under a minute

[lnusagi]

You can turn those letters in to words or pictures. I am not good in English, so I can't turn those letters in to words or letters quicly, but if I do it in my language, it would go faster

[CUB3FR34K]

Letters ARE easy to remember. If you used to memorize with numbers, you can see the difference.

thats it

[Portal3]

lol, subliminal messaging :-P

poor little john :-D

Tim.

[Benlew112358]

ahhhhhh your tutorials are great.... plzplzplzzzzzzzzzzz upload a corner memorization video! PLZZZ

[jieben777]

pls. Eric corners please . . . I did manage to make my own memo for corners but id love to see & hear yours. . .please

[figl1234]

can u give us now the corner memorization?? please

[JasonJRY]

completely outa the picture but hav u reached 10th prestige yet or u stoped playin coz ur 360 is still borken , lolz. anyway bk to it. this video is top notch EricZZZ =P

[1godsir]

Oh my GOD, Eric! Would you HURRY?!!! I'm salivating for the corners memorization video. I've checked out several blind solve tutorials and nobody's is even close to as good as yours. You've got an excellent knack for teaching. You better be going to school to be college professor or something or I'll hunt you down and choke some sense into you. JK (excuse the violent reference, I just think you ought to be a teacher, because you're very intelligent and very good at breaking things down)

[Raawn]

So whens the corner memorization coming out?

[daejavoo]

Come come Eric, i'm waiting for the corner memo video :P

I've learned the new algs so i'm just waiting for your video :P

[EricLimeback]

haha sorry

i don't have the camera with me at the moment, i'm at my dads place, and i should be able to film it early next week

[daejavoo]

Still waiting! :P

[cubenor]

nice video man:)

another method to keep tracking the M slice is to take use of your feet. Foot down = centers correct, Foot up= Centers wrong

It helped me:)

[EricLimeback]

Yep, that works too. I tried it at first but it got distracting haha :P

[Mindstormscreator]

idk, maybe at competition, they strap your feet to the floor :). what you could also do is while you're memorizing, you could keep track of flipped centers and think of the opposite letter in the memo itself. i don't think im going to use letters to memorize, I might just tap my fingers on each sticker I need to move

[Raawn]

It actually works by tapping but it's really time consuming. For example you want to go over what you've remembered and you have to literally tap where they need to go. You could have gone over the same thing several times in your head in the time you needed to revise it once.

If you don't like letters use a different way to memorize

[daejavoo]

Thanks for the series Eric. I've been trying to learn M2, so this should help. Any word on a memo video for corners?

[EricLimeback]

yep, corner memo coming shortly, followed by an entire example solve including the memorization for it and how to go through solving it

[AcEoFhEarTS1991]

Tyson Mao is going to the cincinnati open!

yay

[reghrhre]

thank you i can hopefully memorize edges now

[shamah02]

Thank you so much:) I've gotten like 3 BLD solves since that last video!!

[wegaengine1]

M2 is reeeeeeeeeeaaaaallly hard, man. You have explained it really good, but im the one with problem. im still having a hard time solving parity cases on the m Layer. oh wtf. if i mastered this, i'll be sub 2 in no time. thanks for this eric!!

[EricLimeback]

haha don't give up man. I know it can be confusing and annoying at first, but it's a really good method, and definitely worth learning. There might be other videos that explain it better, or I'm sure there's some sites (I learned it from a friend so I can't say i know any myself). But yeah just stick with it and it gets easier.

[wegaengine1]

yeah. because i think achieving a sub2 with 2 cycle corners+ old pochman edge is hard. m2 is definitely faster. you think 2-cycle corners+M2 will work? *practices m2*

[Raawn]

YES!!! Finally

[fazrulz1]

its up its up!
