    2x2x2x2 BLD solve in 23:16!

    Hey everyone! Some of you may know that I've solved higher dimensional cubes a lot in the past. For example, I've held the FMC WR for the 3^4 since late 2010, originally with 251 twists then I later improved it to 227. Yesterday, I solved the 2^4 in BLD mode! Time was 23:16 [10:12]. 16 targets...

    4x4 parity: never need to do 2 algs!

    Hey all, I've improved the last parity idea I had, I don't think I'll find a better way to deal with parity than this so I've decided to make a thread. For a long time I've messed around with ideas for parity, especially for not needing to do more than one parity alg in a solve, and I think...

    Clock method idea: no-flip (tutorial and demo AO5)

    Hey clock solvers, First of all, you should really be doing a better event. At least it isn't as bad as feet. I messed around with this ages ago, but didn't get much interest from the couple of people I talked to about it. Decided it was about time I made a video to try to see if someone would...

    [Unofficial] Sq-1 19.61 AO5 (parity control)

    Edit: Not the best video I've ever made, but it's something. Felt like trying to make this eventually today, the original plan was to pull this off in comp a few months ago, but I failed in comp with 7/10 success rate. Sq-1 hax is awesome.

    Sq-1 parity + cubeshape (fully developed)

    Hey everyone, I've finally finished developing this, which is why I've been trying to drum up interest recently. I've started making the information available so people can learn it, I'll be trying to finish making a full tutorial when I have time, but it shouldn't be long before I cover most...

    [Unofficial] Megaminx BLD 17:50.07 UWR

    MegaBLD UWR 17:50.07 (10:29.13) by me (Matt Sheerin) :D! http://youtu.be/Y4n1-UHColM I can upload/email the unedited version if anyone wants me to, though I doubt anyone is interested. The rest of my tutorial on megaBLD should be coming soon, I was tweaking some stuff so I held off...

    Megaminx/MK/Gigaminx BLD Thread

    Hi guys, thought I would start a thread for megaminx and bigger BLD discussion (what little there is), starting with my tutorial. As of starting this I only have part 1, but I'll post the rest here when I make it. I'll do my best to answer any questions here about the subject, both about the...

    [Unofficial] Megaminx BLD success!

    Finally got a success :). Time was 35:33 (24:51), which is kinda slow but I'll work on that. Does anyone know how many other people have done this, and how quickly? http://youtu.be/3SPINAsRBOk

    [Unofficial] 5:37.90 7x7 PB OBLBL variant

    Posted my method here. Here's my latest PB using my new SS7. Watching it back, it's obvious I still suck a lot, so many mistakes. This method is so much fun though so its fine :). Matt

    New method for megaminx last layer (2-look)

    Been working on some megaminx stuff. Mostly a proposed LL system, which I haven’t learned yet, but I intend to learn it and use it, and which I have put a lot of thought into. It provides a feasible 2-look system for LL (sort of). First, I would like to propose a new notation for megaminx...

    1LOLL even parity

    I've been taking a look at this recently: recognising the OLL case when you have parity on 4x4x4 or 6x6x6, and solving in 1 look. I couldn't find a thread on it already, which was surprising, but since I have all the cases generated I thought I should gauge what people think of it. There are...

    Skewb Blind Discussion (not for Andrew Kang)

    Ok, after this being an obvious thing to do after listening to Cubecast, and being mentioned in episode 7 (which I'm listening to while writing this :)), I felt like making a thread to discuss this. I have solved skewb BLD a few times now (the first time I limited myself to algs that were comms...

    Hybrid edges method for 5x5x5 (and bigger)

    Hi everyone, I started using this hybrid method for edge-pairing recently, got the idea from the method Dan Cohen uses for 4x4. Haven't seen it before and didn't find it with a search, but that doesn't mean it hasn't been discussed already. Method is as follows: (1. Solve all centers)...
