what's with the last part of the reconstruction: x2 y // rotation setup does he have to finish with the right side facing up?

I can't see how this can be a bad thing. The Rubiks-RedBull event is purely targeted to the elite competitors and will if anything raise the profile of cubing in general. The events don't really cross-over with the WCA events, and the rescramble actually looks very cool, this will hopefully...

seems to have gone to internet oblivion. From the web archives, doesn't work too well though: http://web.archive.org/web/20161228043920/http://cubeloop.com:80/

Learn 7 or 8, at a time, or at least a few more than feels comfortable. Initially make sure you get to a point that the one you've picked is the right one and feels comfortable. Make a little summary sheet and print it off unless you always have your laptop on. Repeat the algs at different...

nicely done. what's with the little cube shake ticks?

I wrote a slightly strange esoteric program to help using letter pairs and generating a letter pair list. https://www.speedsolving.com/forum/threads/letterpairs.56318/

Lol, only I do. I remember the 1st mp3 file I ever downloaded took 40 minutes. The next person will tell me I'm wrong, but not know how to phrase it.

you're missing the memo and the reveal.

So that would put you roughly at a very high IM \ GM rating. Top 100 players within the Americas.

Doesn't using different cubes and the different feel of a cube perhaps help with recalling the memo? You would have perhaps at least sub consciously thought, it's that memo with the Red sports car that I did with the Zhanchi.

1. Find out what your worst at. 2. Practice that until it's not your weakest part. 3. Repeat 1. BLD resources: http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?40921-Noah-s-Blindfolded-Tutorial http://di-mare.com/scrambld/ http://tobip.ch/letter_pair_generator/...

From the first time I ever tried timing myself, I was over 4 minutes. For some time I tried to break 4 minutes with the knowledge I knew at the time, I think it took a few days with some very simple beginner layer-by-layer method. It's not just a matter of head down and practice until you get...

Fair enough, very clever. I was considering a 'no-move' for the 19th different type of move, but if you go to that extent I suppose the length of the data could deal with no-moves.

Well if you accidentally see passed your blindfold and written on the piece of paper in front of your face saying "stop cheating you scumbag", they you'll definitely screw up the solve. So yeah, eyes shut at all times. Also less likely but you may see some hot bikini clad girl out the corner of...

That's not true. Whatever is deemed 'human readable' has not be defined, but if you encode a scramble then the 'decoder' method (and everything suggested so far would need some kind of decoder) would just give you a scramble, no need for any kind of 43q lookup. hamfaceman maybe talking about...

Given there are 43 quintillion states to distinguish uniquely, then there is no way of compressing the data any smaller than that. I got the original 8 bytes calculation wrong, it's actually 9 bytes. That's not what you originally asked for, but considering the above statement and to make the...

What about assigning a predetermined order, where each order means given cube state. So State 0 would be the solved state. Then you would only need to store the order number between 0 and 43 quintillion. However many bytes that is, 8 I think.

This is really weird, I swear I perform: R U R' U (J-perm) R U2 R' but this is not on algdb.net, nor is the left hand mirror version. I regret taking the shortcut and learning some of the left-handed mirrors, for example the U-Perm. It is in fact much easier to perform the alg from the back...

I stopped racing in the sub-30 thread, because I knew I'd never achieve that goal, and still am not sub-30. I think I need to stop racing and start learning, like 1 look OLL, only problem is that I just learned BLD and got a new Sq-1 that I can't put down. I have a question, I bought a...
