Who do you think the most successful speedcuber is?

[Edward]

Contribution to subject award: Dan Brown (aka Pogobat), Memyselfandpi, Jessica Fridrich, Youtube, Internet

I'm sorry but both of those people are barely any help to the cubing society. I believe that they are not as cool as many people (n00bs) think they are. i'm sure that someone else would of done what they have and not been "annoying" like them. Again, this is just my opinion. Please don't quote me and say i'm wrong because i cant be wrong about myself.

EDIT: i forgot my choice. i choose Lance Taylor and Tristan Wright.

Dan brown not a help to the community? He's helped THOUSANDS of people learn to solve the cube.

Obviously you didn't read the whole thing. i said it was my opinion... now please stop.

How can you have an opinion canceling out a fact?

Whatever.

it is true that he helped a lot of other people but honestly there are a lot better video's out there from people that deserve the respect. all he did was show people what a book says. many other people i can think of have done a lot more work and gotten less recognition which i believe is not right. if you go to his channel now he has a lot of other "spamish" things and has drifted away from cubing. goes to show you how much he really cares about it...

The most successful speedcuber is me, of course.

(2 posts above)^No, jokerman. He hasn't 'drifted away' from cubing, he never defined himself as a cuber. He's a guy on YouTube making videos about whatever subject he wants, and his cube tutorial helped gain him massive popularity. He doesn't do 'spamish' things, but that would be more like... an opinion.
So no, nothing shows how much he really cares about it.
He can go to no competitions, never average sub-50, stop cubing too if he felt like it, and still be a great contributor by fact because of his one tutorial. He didn't just show what a book says, he helped and explain in detail, I'm sure plenty of people did not understand the book as much as they understood Dan. Also, a video can encourage people more than a book. It just seems easier to learn this wahttp://www.speedsolving.com/forum/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=266526y.

I have stated a few times that this is just my opinion, you may think i'm wrong but it is what i think.

 

[Hyprul 9-ty2]

Stop arguing, its the same thing. Pogobat made a tutorial that reached far and wide and got more people involved into cubing. The problem is, he's not a speedcuber So he's not eligible for this.

 

[rubiknewbie]

he never defined himself as a cuber.

This is true. He had a video introducing himself, and he didn't even MENTION about cubing.

Dan Brown is just a guy who loves making videos on youtube. I can't see how that is wrong. He doesn't go around telling people he's great at cubing.

Who said that helped the community?

Nakajima.
He's Asian.

Dan Brown has gotten many people into speedcubing. And Memyselfandpi came out with the pi mod for the 6x6. They do have many noobs who idolize them, but they aren't bad people.

While I agree with you on memysefland pi, you think that Tristan Wright is of more help to the cubing world than Dan Brown? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Also, I have no clue who Lance Taylor is, so I take that as an indication that he isn't all that important.

When someone asks you what is the record you reply "7.08" and if they say who, which occasionally they do, you say Erik Akkersdijk. I think ultimately he is the most successful not in money but I think the speed single is where it is at at the end of the day.

 

[esquimalt1]

I agree with Edumnd.

Duh... Matyas Kuti

Lol, I said Matyas too.

All those Euros, with minimal effort.

Chris Tran (^) would also be up there. Full zb is ****ing insane.

 

[4Chan]

Haha, thanks so much!!

But, in comparison, I'm nobody. (x
Also, it's not completely full yet, I still have to learn ZBF2L soon.
I'm also not fast at it yet.

But again, thanks!!
