Is the number of permutations for a rainbow cube?
\(
\frac{12!}{3}=159,667,200
\)
Because 12 pieces with no oriention and only 3 peices can be switched.

Does anyone know of a program that can drill me on my BLD letter scheme?
If that didn't make sense:
Let's say I want to learn that the BR sticker is associated with the letter K. Is there a program that will drill me on that (i.e. will highlight that sticker and ask, "What letter is associated with this sticker" or something similar)?
I'm asking because I can't rely on my "randomness". I always just point to stickers I already know (mostly on the U face) and never those on D. I have no idea what Q is unless I go "A B C D E etc." until I get to Q.
Yar thanks.

You could just flip the cube in your hands and find the sticker your touching. Or have some program select a sticker from a random list.

I'm sure I've seen a program that does exactly that before, lemme find it.
EDIT: nvm it's in Chinese

Just do some solves. Once you've done enough to be moderately fast you'll have no problems with letter recognition

Make cue cards with all the letters you use and mix them up. Then try to quickly identify the corresponding sticker as you go through them. I know this is the other way around but it would still help.
Honestly though, after some practice it will come naturally anyway.

I had the same problem, Rook, so I memorized the letter on each face and then I go around and figure out. A is the UB edge so I go around clockwise. Likewise, I is my RU edge, so I know where J, K, and L are easily. So I only have to count out max of 4 letters for one. But after a few solves you'll start to get used to t.

+1. Although the tip is kinda annoying, it falls off sometimes.
Oh and QJ is DIY, dunno about Mefferts.

This is my last pyraminx question, I swear.
When you do edge inserts such as L' U L or R U' R, how do you do the finger tricks. I'm guessing not like a normal 3x3.

It's okay, pyraminx is awesome.
I do cross on bottom then flip it so I have cross on left during F2L, the flip it back for LL. Kinda bad but it works for me.
As for the insert, I do L R L' or L R' L' or with U instead of L. Pyraminx doesn't really have finger tricks but rather wrist turns. You grab the tips and use your wrist. Watch some youtube videos to get the idea.
Oh and watch my solves on youtube and you'll know what I mean.

How can I reset my rubik's magic to the way it looked like the first day?
what can i do when my friends mess it up and i can't fix it?
i'm a noob in rubik's magic. all i can do is to solve/unsolve it when it is completely solved/unsolved.

How many possible combinations are there for the teraminx?
Excluding indistinguishable differences such as 2 of the same colour centres switched.

No idea, but I plan on buying a set of small Cubesmith stickers for my C4U. If I remember, I'll let you know how it works.
