Is this solvable without removing the stickers? Just Yes or No, Im not asking for the solution.

Its just the yellow and orange swapped places at the middle top, all other sides are fully solved.

WCA Regulation on Stickerless Cubes

3d) Puzzles must have coloured parts, which must be one of the following: coloured stickers, coloured tiles, coloured plastic, or painted/printed colours. All coloured parts of a puzzle must be made of a similar material.

Does that mean that stickerless cubes are legal, because isn't coloured plastic stickerless cubes?:confused::confused::confused:

Which Square-1 is generally regarded as the best and fastest on the market?

I currently have a Calvin's but I've heard that there are better variants that turn better. Any suggestions?

What is the purpose of [spoilerr] and [spoilerrr]? The first one doesn't appear to hide anything, and the second one just seems to be a spoiler that looks slightly different (and you can't change the title of either):

[spoilerr]not hidden[/spoilerr]

[spoilerrr]What's this for?[/spoilerrr]

I googled them and both times Speedsolving was the first website to come up. I don't think they're on other forums. So, what are they?

I've also seen this, which looks kind of interesting. Is there any reason why it's not enabled? (I don't see any reason to enable it either, but I just wanted to point it out since I haven't seen anyone else talk about it before since 2008).

Well I know that spoilers are on many different forums as I have seen and used them before, so Google has failed you.

I think that some people tend to misuse them commonly, but they can be effective.

One way to use them is if there is lots of information in a thread spoilers can be used to clean it up and condense the information into categories. The categories can then be hidden under the spoilers so that people can chose which information the want to see.

Also spoilers can be used to compact additional information that is not nessacary but can be useful. If someone is posting a scramble as text they may wish to use a spoiler with a graphic representation of what the cube should look like. Not using a spoiler could have made the thread or post very messy and hard to read but spoiler cleans it up.

Spoilers can also be used when information isn't meant to be seen. An example would be if someone is posting a FMC thread with scramble he could put his solution in a spoiler so that people won't look at it until they make their own solution.

I'm aware of the uses of normal spoilers, but not these. These are [spoilerr] and [spoilerrr], not just a normal

Finding a timer

I am looking for an online timer that you can add in multiple 3x3s and name them the name of the cube to keep track of my solve times for different 3x3s. If you could tell me any online timers that would be great because I am unable to find one. Thanks

What's the alg for an adjacent corner swap in a 2x2x4? They say A-perm but how am I supposed to execute that within (U, D, F2, L2, R2, B2) group??? Can somebody give me an alg and how its executed on the cuboid? I don't have ANY experience with cuboids at ALL.
