After 100 games my SG PR is 6.78.
My checker PR is 5.92 and my cube PR is 10.61.
This is much slower going than DMP. Having to stop and consider cube decisions obviously slows me down quite a bit, but checker decisions are slower too. There is just a lot more to consider with gammons and the cube in the mix. I expect getting to a 5.0 PR will take a lot longer than it did for DMP.
One thing I didn't expect is that my DMP play has gotten worse. When I was playing nothing but DMP, I was getting constant reinforcement. Now that I'm developing new patterns and instincts, I often find myself uncertain of both the DMP and the SP play. I've kind of lost my mojo. I may have to work some long DMP sessions into the mix to keep that part of my game sharp.
As far as the cube goes, I think I will have to start studying position types at some point. Cubes don't come up often enough, and are so varied, that's it's hard to make much progress. Now that I have the first 100 games in the bank, I need to figure out a way to break things down into more digestible chunks.
As I mentioned before, I expect the progress reports to be much farther apart than during Phase 1. Things have gotten exponentially more complex.
