@ HavoCentral - BLD edge flipping:
Sorry if this was answered already, but a way of flipping edges during blind is to shoot to one sticker on a cubie, then shoot straight back to the other sticker on it, that will flip the target and the buffer. If you have another edge that needs flipped do the same again and that will sort out your buffer. Tons of moves but I like it cause I sometimes lose track of the edge flip algorithm.

Right now, my guhong is very very fast (almost too fast), but has not so great corner-cutting. How do I get it to slower, but better cutting?

If you tighten the screws a little bit and then break that sucker in, its like the best thing you have ever felt in the universe (that could just be me) I am a pretty heavy-handed cuber and i think the guhong gets a bit better at corner cutting if you break it in a little bit first, its like a fine wine, it gets better with age.
And my question would be...
Do those bright sticker sets really make a difference in certain lightings (orange dim light, really small light.. etc)?

There's no more spoilers allowed in signatures.
Verdes is systematically removing good cubes from the market through shady means
X-Cube 4 has been released
Faz broke the 3x3 WR. Twice. In one competition. 7.03 then 6.77. The next day Rowe went 6.94, PLL skip I think
Not sure when you were on last but that's a decent summary I believe.
Edit: Oh yeah and Haiyan's BLD WR was broken

You forgot to mention the other 10+ WRs that were broken in other events.

Go to the WCA results page and find out for yourself.

No spoilers because masterofthebass decided I guess. There's a thread on it.
@RyanReese:
Yes there are of course more WRs but the anticipation over the 3x3 single was huge and makes the hilight reel for this year. The BLD one was also big because it was recent and Haiyan was banned. It added to the hype of his record and brought more attention to BLD.

Or i can use this thing called "the one answer question thread" dumbass

why was he banned?

Wow it has been a while.
There's a thread on it of course. But he was apparently violent to WCA delegates and there was a lot of politics in it. He's no longer permitted in WCA competitions (well it's only two years I think but I doubt he'll come back). He's having fun with ten rounds of BLD in every CCA competition he attends.
