X-Cube 7

[Googlrr]

Sorry if I'm wrong, but it just seems too coincidental that the reveal was supposed to come April 1st.

But this was posted on March 21st. 10 days later would have been the 31st?

When I'm logged in, it says it was posted 5 days ago at 12:18 PM. That would be 4 days ago at 12:18 AM in China. Meaning he posted this right after midnight on March 22nd, the day that was 10 days before April 1st. Which makes it even more suspicious - the timing was perfect, as if he was waiting for the time to be right before he posted it. (This was also pointed out over at TwistyPuzzles; it's not an original idea by me.)

Video looks nice, I do hope that it's real. That would be fantastic.

Definitely looks real to me.

I agree - it does look real, and it does look nice. I also hope it's real. But the fact that xb27 hasn't explicitly said it's real makes me really suspicious. This feels like an even better hoax than Tony Fisher's 9x9x9. Either way, it's still impressive. But it would be much more impressive if it were actually real.

Ah, my bad. Didn't consider that time zones could make a difference in the day. Now that DOES seem like quite the coincidence.

"Fully-Functional".

My feeble mind cannot comprehend how this can be faked.

I watched it at least 5 times looking for possible frame skips.

Tony Fisher just said he thinks it's real, and he's stumped. Now the question is: is he telling the truth, or is he also in on the joke?

I'm happy to live in my own little world away from skepticism where I can tell myself this will be mass-produced and around $20...

 

[Owen]

Now for a real post.


I always knew this was possible, and now I'm glad there's proof. I am very very happy that this now exists, and if it's mass produced, I will defiantly be buying one. Also, if this is fake, you have a few days to make a real one, because that would make me very upset.

If only that were true...

who are you defying by buying this? I don't think anyone has any objections to it.

Off-topic: That's got to be the weirdest common spelling mistake (?) I've ever seen so far in my life.

That was spell check's fault.

First you misspelled the word, then clicked the wrong word as a correction. Spell check isn't a spell corrector, it helps you know when you spelled things wrong. The word "definitely" will not trip your spell check.

Ok I really don't get the point of all this x-cube stuff.

X-cube can be purchassed nowhere, and mecanism remain secret. It's just as interesting as a dolphin farting in the middle of the ocean.

However, the fact that the cube is cubic (I mean, not like a V7) and the layers have all the same size is pretty disturbing. It might be a fake, but it looks pretty real on the video. I think this is actually a fake, using some tricks like magnets.

Remember, it is april the first in few days.

Anyway, i just don't get the point of all this stupid x-cube stuff.

What a good explanation...

How is it a fake if it uses magnets? Tony fisher has made puzzles with magnets.

 

[Deleted member 4527]

wut I thought it's impossible? o.O

 

[rachmaninovian]

I don't think he used magnets. Maybe the corners stalks are hooked on somewhere? Otherwise I don't get how the corners can manage to stay on the same level and not drop out...

EDIT: anyway, what's with the "myth" that if the corners can't stay in place, the cube can't work? I have saw that geometric proof on youtube long ago...but I don't know what is with this "myth". anyone care to explain?

 

[IamWEB]

"Xceed the limit"

 

[qqwref]

It's an amazing video. Can you (xb27) post a picture of a corner piece by itself?

And where/when will we be able to buy this cube?

Comme on ! He's just making everybody look at him without releasing anything usefull for mounth now.

No informations, no cubes, we don't event know if this x cubes thing really exists.

This kind of behaviour is very common on forums, and we usually call these people « attention whore ». Usually it's more like girls showing her boobs to get reaction from nerdy people that never get a girl. But we are on a cube forum, and xb27 has no boobs. So he does what he can.

I think he deserves attention for his achievements.
