    Spoiler:
    To an illiterate person, there'd be practically no difference between hearing Stephenie Meyer and Shakespeare. If your application is being examined by a person who'd be very impressed by that, then maybe, fine. But really, I doubt they'd give in as easily. There'd be some kind of background checks on whether it constitutes a real "extraordinary ability" wouldn't there?

    I'm sure most people would rather watch sports than people solving cubes. People usually think cubes are just the same solution, they are ignorant towards the subject of cubes. That is why most people disregard the ability to solve the cube as something you just learn on the internet without any further practice, which is why it's not extraordinary. What Kirjava said is perfect. I agree that the cube is probably the most popular toy, but that doesn't mean you can get a green card for the ability to solve it in 10 seconds. Maybe, if you can find God's algorithm in 3 seconds, for every possible position, then that would be extraordinary and you might get a green card for that.
    The wiki! read the FAQ and forum rules. Very useful resources. Post your efforts. Solve blindfolded. Introduce yourself! BB code - Compete! - Ask a question!
