I've been getting into doing more weird and wondefull puzzles so if there is anything that you think is interesting to solve then that would be appreciated. (I have thought about a redi cube but haven't got it yet)
I got mine from ziicube, the turning is awesome, but the cube is very loose so its good to tension it before something bad happens.
any fun fact/piece of cubing trivia that you could tell to a non-cuber but would shock/interest a cuber as well
eg something like a delegate memorizing fmc scrambles getting a 19 and 20 mean link
preferably more interesting than that
thanks :D
I just had an amazing noon of cubing, hitting all pb averages on some solves. I'm pretty sure just learning full 1-look-CMLL would firmly put me sub20 at my current speed (which would be a huge personal milestone obviously) - But I'm just dreading it?
I love solving but learning algs is such a pain and I don't know what kinda resources to go for...
Like I can find algs to learn but not how to learn them and I can't possibly be the only one 😅
Anyone got recommendations? In general or for Roux specifically!
Currently I just know 2-look, as well as H and 2 Pi cases
I'm in America...
I found the URL to cube academy V2! In this frame, you can clearly see the URL at 1080p50 quality. Sadly, when I visited this URL I found out that it needs email verification, and after entering my email I never recieved the verification code, even after resending many times. Perhaps some of you guys could try it and tell me if it works for you.
I dont remember ever seeing scam sites like these until now. Kinda crazy these can operate and even lay their websites out similarly.
I found this 1982 rubiks at a thrift store for only $1.90 and I had to grab it. After getting home I ripped open the bag and pulled out the cube, after solving i was looking at it for any signs of sticker tampering, and noticed a double sticker on the rubiks logo and on the year sticker.
The 2 stickers with writing appear to have another sticker layered over top of them, though the blue sticker is more noticeable. I found this really strange, and was wondering if this was normal or possibly a factory error? Mabye even somthing valuable?
Lets say that if you were doing an OH solve, and the cube comes in with a corner twist, and you have it on camera that the cube came in with a corner twist, but corner twists are super annoying to do OH, could you ask a delegate for an extra if you didnt cause the corner twist but it just came like it if you showed them video evidence and that it came like that, would they be able to grant you an extra?
The first alg in the video is the one I discovered. The second one is the one I originally learned. The one I originally learned is 11 moves. The one I discovered is 19. So, that's a pretty big difference. But I was timing both algs, and even with minimal practice, the new one wasn't far off. The old one was quicker, but not by too much. I think it's because of how it's set up. The old one is all over the place, while the new one is all right there. It seems like that might make a difference idk. What do y'all think? Does anyone use the alg I found?
Also, is this already an alg? And I just "re" discovered it? I wouldn't be surprised.
Does someone know how to solve this case? Please help
It all started when my BIL gave me his 3x3 as a gift... Now, more keep coming in the mail... I'm not sure what to do. Please, send help.
Hi, I main 2x2 and I'm trying to be faster at it.
I know full EG and a little bit of LEG1 and TCLL, my one look is fine, my 2x2 is really bad but I will buy the 251 m pro soon.
I average around sub 2.2, depending if I can one look the cases or not.
Recently I've wanted to deep more into 2x2, since I watched some example solves of pros and they use weird stuff like LS, TEG1, TGLS. And I want in the future know at least ls and teg1
My question is, is it worth it to learn all the cases of those advanced sets? because there are cases that are bad and unless that is the only solution I would never use that case.
How do pros choose which algs to learn and which not.
thanks
I recently took a long break from cubing cuz I had a bunch of intense exams consecutively. Recently I am getting back into it, before I quit I knew full OLL and PLL, I still can recall and do full PLL as fast as I used to, but I am unable to remember all my OLL algs and aside from a few I am quite a bit slower, and some of my f2l algs are slower than usual, for context i was around sub 20 in my prime. What should I do now? And if I should relearn my algs, where should I learn them from? For context I use majority of the old jperm.net algorithms with 4-5 brian sun algs here and there

I was on SpeedcubeDB on training at 2x2 ortega OLL. and i press start training, I GOT THIS SCRAMBLE? is this a bug/troll or 1 in a quadrillion?
