Is this YJ 5x5 a Vcube KO?????

"Align 150 squares so that the colors match up on all 25 sides." I love that line from the website.

 

[RyanReese09]

most fast people use vandenbergh (like the fridrich of sq1) some people use a roux/screw method, and some people learn some sub methods like parity cp.

where can i find a page explaning proper sq1 notation? also what method do advanced sq1'ers use?

There is no pro method

All the methods do the same steps

the pros just know alot more algs for each step to stop repetition


the only thing i could suggest as a pro method
is doing the back to square part intuitively instead of algs

http://www.jaapsch.net/puzzles/square1.htm

example: method two of the square part.

its what i learned and i can do the square in about 10 seconds

as for notation

a friend of mine went to italy and got a special edition Lovre Rubiks cube. (Rubiks brand as well)

anyone know where or how i can get one?

 

[vcuber13]

what are the odds of getting an oll and cp skip on 4x4 (obviously not reduction because it would be the same as 3x3)

 

[TMOY]

For CP skip: 1/6 (same as 3^3)
For OLL skip: 1/27 (corners) * 1/70 (edges) = 1/1890

Generally when do you recommend to learn full PLL ? I am learning it and done with 11 of them , and i can feel that my avg has gone way down and i think with 2OLL and full PLL i can get sub30 or not?

With full PLL and 2LOLL i got a 24.99 average of 100 so sub 30 is definitely achievable. Also finish PLL as soon as you can

I average 25 with 2LOLL and 19/21 PLL. (I hate N perms)

There has been so many people ask this question but the best one that most people use is the QJ pyraminx

Perpendicular edges is what I have

it doesn't say how to actually solve the cubeshape

 

[BC1997]

incase an italian goes.

but really someone needs to organize it and get a delegate

what do you mean get a delegate? i barely no anyone that can solve the rubiks cube

 

[Lumej]

BC1997: A delegate is a cuber the World Cubing Association officially acknowledged as delegate. Every competition needs to have a delegate. He is responsible for a lot of stuff when organising a comp, eg. providing the scrambles, sending in the results after the comp is over, advising other officials... Here and here you can find lots of interesting information about how a competition works. And if you're not familiar with the WCA, I suggest browsing their site as well.

 

[BC1997]

thanks but does he have to be from that particular country

THIS is really good. Needs some breaking in though.
