JY said if you don't how to do the exact game, print ten clean copy and finish it with control and speed.
The problem is, after i watched the video, i only need practice 2-5 copy right after the video to reach the time limit. And when should i finish the rest of the copys?

Thank you!
I do it like this:
Easy Games: 3x in a row right after the video
Medium Games: 5x in a row right after the video
Hard Games: 10x in a row right after the video
After I foolproof the game and can do it from memory, I print out a fresh copy of the game and keep it in a Foolproofing Binder. Then, every weekend, I take out a couple from that Binder and do them.
If you feel comfortable with a game then you can move on. Just make sure you have a system in place so that you can re-visit games to make sure you still understand it. Another thing I've found helpful is not watching J.Y.'s videos all the way through. Once I see enough of the video to know what's going on, or how he made a certain inference, I'll pause it and complete the questions on my own. I do that a few times, then I return to the video to see if he did it any differently.
Generally around here, most of us have done a game up to 10 times... but if you can once or twice in a row get it done under the time that JY recommends, you can move on. I usually only needed about 3 times max in order to meet the time.
Here is an alternative way to do foolproofing that's known as the "Pacifico method" in the 7sage forum. It's generally what I did, and I think a lot more efficient. You might want to consider doing it this way too.

To make it even more efficient when it comes to paper, some people have only printed 1 copy of each game, put them in clear sheet protectors, and then use a fine point dry erase marker on the protector. Just erase and do it again for each try. So smart!
Are you spreading out those 2-5 or doing them back to back? There's a big difference between being able to do it right after watching the video and say a week later. I would do it once the day of, once the next day, and once several days or a week later. If it doesn't take you ten copies to get a game then that's okay
