hi

 

[Chomper]

welcome! what do you average on 3x3? do you have any other twisty puzzles? what inspired you to start cubing?

Thanks! I average like 35-40 sec. I have a crap ton of shape mods, but not much else (though I am def gonna get a 7x7 or smth similar soon). I started cubing cuz it just seemed like a good way to waste time lol.

What specific shape mods?

Chomper, Chomper, Chomper… You thought you could just casually mention ZZ and a 29-second PR, and not get interrogated?

1. What cube did you hit that 29 with?
2. Why ZZ over CFOP or Roux? Did the blockbuilding whisper to you in your dreams?
3. Most cursed solve you've ever had? (DNF stories welcome.)
4. You get to ban one WCA event forever. Which one and why is it Clock?
5. Favorite color scheme? Are you a Solarized Dark loyalist or default white-on-black enjoyer?
6. Do you ever cube while doing something else (watching TV, summoning demons, etc.)?
7. If you had to solve a cube underwater or while skydiving, which one and why?
8. What’s the wildest mod you own?
9. Got any cubes that are so bad they’re now just decoration?
10. How many times have you regretted scrambling your only main before bed?
11. If you could invent a new WCA event, what chaos would you unleash?
12. Have you ever tried cubing with gloves, oven mitts, or literal spaghetti hands?
13. What’s your plan for 7x7—speed solve it, or build a tiny cube-shaped house with it?
14. What’s your cubing hot take that would start a forum war?

Now for the cursed round. You knew it was coming:

1. If ZZ was a sandwich, what would be in it?
2. Which Pokémon would be the best at cubing?
3. You have to name your next cube after a dinosaur. What’s the name?
4. Would you rather cube with mayonnaise-lubed pieces or while wearing VR goggles locked in 4D Tetris?
5. Which meme best represents your solving style?
6. If your current PB was a movie title, what would it be?

Welcome aboard—you're officially part of the madness now.

1. Which Pokémon would be the best at cubing?

I would like to answer that question with Uxie (Alakazam and Mew/Mewtwo are good choices but I think Uxie is the best)

 

[pTr]

What?!?

The clear winner is Alakazam

Alakazam’s Pokédex entry consistently cites an IQ of around 5 000. That level of raw processing power means it can internalize the cube’s state, run an optimal solve algorithm in its head. Use of Telekenisis lets it not turn the cube with its fingers. “Lock-ups” caused by anxiety or distraction won't happen bc Alakazam’s mental discipline is absolute.

No physical limits and super high IQ. What does Uxie have on this? Is it going to memorise 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 algs?

Welcome to SS forums. This place is great for improvement whether it’s finding people to practice with or if you have questions. Good luck on your goals.
