So i posted a challenge for a friend on youtube... and his sis and him had the audacity to call me a fake and a liar...It really annoyed me and disappointed me...one of my close friends saying that to me...anyone else have the same experience?:mad::(
 
Anyone who's ever posted a YouTube video of blindfold solving (or even speedsolving sometimes) has been called a liar. Get over it.
 
I think I've only gotten one or two negative comments on youtube ever. I would actually want some negative comments from random people. Most of the comments are just quick "good job" from friendly cubers.
I guess it's because my only 3x3 BLD video was a sleep-delayed DNF and my only 2x2 BLD was one where I was just randomly standing in the street and people were laughing that there are cops behind me rather than looking at the solve itself. There are many negative comments on Nakajima's videos, the more you get the more people are actually impressed with your skills.

Edit:
I remember from from Drexel Fall 08! What are the scrambles of your PB's? I've looked through the lucky scramble threads and found ridiculous scrambles where I got sub-1 min on BLD and sub-10 on speed too, but I would not count them as my PBs; in fact, my guidelines for luckiness are usually stricter than the current rules. With my rules (BLD< three pieces solves) (speed=same as speedcubing.com guidelines), I've achieved 2:19.xx BLD and 13.xx speed. Counting very lucky cases is ridiculous. If your scramble is just a U perm, you can have a very lucky PB of 2 seconds BLD and 0.8 seconds speed.

Yes, could you explain why your signature shows excellent times while your video and competition average is no where near?
and why would someone call you a liar for posting a challenge? more details please?
 
I have been called a liar because I rarely let people at school scramble (or touch, for that matter) my cubes, because any time anyone else touches my cubes, they drop, pop, or something else bad happens.

For some reason, they get the cube and start scrambling with the variations of R and L, and with their palms, trying to look cool. Instant Pop... (Then I get angry and so they never touch my cubes again :D)

I didn't meet anyone that called me a liar about the cubes since after you solve their scramble in front of them, there's not much to say.

There were some people that thought I just watched the scramble and undid it.
Stupid...

To prevent against this I usually turn my back while people I trust are scrambling. Then I get scared my cube will pop or something and turn around, and they think I am cheating again. That is why when going out of my house (not competitions, of course) I usually bring my 6-month-old sotrebought that NEVER pops.
 
I have never been called a liar in terms of being able to solve a cube. However, I have been wrongly called a liar for other things(though not for skills, more like for your typical: "I did not do that," type things) as everyone else has.

People do seem to think that if you watch them scramble you'll be able to solve the cube more easily. Whenever someone tries to scramble my cube so I can show them a solve they will usually bring the cube to their side so I cannot see it or some variation of the sort. But, once you solve it right in front of their face there is no room for calling you a liar or a cheater or anything.
 
a lot of people said this before in other threads, but people call me a liar when they put parities on my 3x3 and i have to open it up to finish the solve. most annoying thing ever.
and just last week i let this total jock scramble my 3x3 and the blockhead mangled a bunch of stickers by gripping it too hard. and when i took the stickers off to try reapplying he said i was cheating.
wait till he shows up at weightlifting on monday... somebody is gona get a 65-pound dumbell dropped on his foot.

That happened to me once, I brought my 3x3x5, and all the caps easily fell off, so one person just randomly started mashing it, trying to scramble it, and they all fell off, so I just put them back, and now she never touches my cubes again. :P And once my Megaminx popped when I brought it and was solving it, and it pops so much, I won't let anyone touch it.
