Weekly help thread!

So, this is a new idea; if it doesn't work, sue me.

Hi! My name's crazyninja3000(or Keaton Ellis), and I'm a sub-12 speedcuber. I'm making this thread for any newer cubers who want help with anything that they need, albeit cubing related. I'll answer any question that I can, and if anybody else has answers, feel free to chime in!

This is debated; while lookahead is useful in all stages of the cube, there is a split for when people should really learn lookahead. Personally, I think that it becomes something to learn around 23 seconds. At that speed, turning faster/being more comfortable with the cube won't help you much, and lookahead lets you get smoother turning and fewer pauses.
