The 2014 Rubys! (2014 Forum Awards)

[Fawn]

It's been a long time since I've been around the forum. What's the deal with PJKcuber? What did he do to get banned?

I wasn't on the forums quite at that point either, but I'm pretty sure he was asking too many questions about how to get faster and not making use of his answers.

For the worst/Deserved a ban Form member I nominate LolBen(Ben Witmore). He got perma banned with his Ben1996123 account and then came back on the forms with a new account but ended up getting perma banned a few months later with the new account.

I nominate these 2 threads for the worse thread of the year https://www.speedsolving.com/forum/...out-the-One-Answer-Question-Forum-Please-Read and https://www.speedsolving.com/forum/...mplishment-Forum-(Please-read-before-posting) cause there was no need to close an old tread and make a whole new one.

I nominate Moyu to be the Puzzle brand of the year.

Did he ever have an account called "lolben"? I know after ben1995 got banned he had an account name of 15-puzzle combinations (10something).

No but his nickname was lolben. See this post https://www.speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php/File:Lolben.jpg and this https://www.speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Lolben#lolben_.282009.29

I'll +1 your nomination for "Welcome to the Accomplishment Thread" as worst thread of the year, though. It completely disrupts what was pretty much 1/3 of the reason I go to speedsolving.

Method of the year goes to.... Sarah's skewb method? I think the system for solving L5C+CLL is kinda cool

I wonder if 'EG' for skewb will be feasible (incorrectly permuted corners on the bottom layer)

Nah, I'll have to go with speedcubin on that one.

Seriously? Speedcubin is much better than speedcubin
