Patrick Jameson 1.97 (although the site was last updated in 2009).

Fix'd

Okay, I'm tired, I get it.

anyway, thanks for the answer.

(I double-checked my post for grammatical errors this time.)

 

[PandaCuber]

Not necessarily. You can also buy diff oil (example: http://www.rcplanet.com/Ofna_50000_Weight_Silicone_Oil_p/ofn10237.htm )

Thanks but they dont have this in South america :/

I average ~28 now.. Is it worth going to a competition ?

You could average 4 minutes and it'd still be worth going. Unless you're like 10s don't even worry about the competing part.

Where To Buy Cubes

i know about that thread. i just can't find a website that sells all of them cheap....

It's hard to find a site that has all the best prices on all cubes. Usually Lightake and 51morefun have the cheapest prices overall.

 

[EricReese]

Sorry, "Eric."

Can't anyone ask a question without being corrected for grammar?

That is not grammar. That is you incorrectly misspelling a famous cuber. <_<

As to your question, I have no idea but 1.97 from Pat Jameson IIRC

So, I think K4 is cool. I'd like to switch (as I find it much more fun than Reduction/Yau), but there are two primary problems I'd like tips on:

1. For F3L, I'm only inserting one piece at a time (unless they're already connected), and finding it rather slow. I read somewhere else there are tricks to doing this more efficiently. Are there? If so, how do they work? Or is this just sheer speed?

2. So, my ELL still sucks as it always has. I'm currently just doing basic 3-cycles. I figure there's better ways to doing this, but for now I also figure I should simply experiment as it's meant to be very intuitive. However, how should I approach parity? Currently, I just do a "single edge flip" algorithm and finish off with a 3-cycle (if necessary). I also heard somewhere that in order to solve parity you're actually also switching two centre pieces of the same colour. Is this true?

PS: Sorry for relatively nub question. I really need to work on my commutators, it seems.

The shengshou 6x6 is only sold at Champion's cube store?

Some time ago, someone posted the weight and density of dayan cubes, is there an updated list including the Lingyun V2?

I followed the mod video from fallingkirby, did all the mods to my guhong, now it locks up like..ALOT. Anybody know if I did something wrong? Or any way to fix this?

Blindfolded freestyle edges what's the best way to do double transpositions? Like two edge 2-cycles?.

For double 2-cycles of the kind A -> B -> A and C -> D -> C, if I can't see an easy way to setup it into a H-perm/Z-perm/(L2U2)^3/(M2U2)^2 I do A -> B -> C -> A then A -> D -> C -> A.
For double 2-cycles of the kind A -> B -> A' (A' means A flipped) and C -> D -> C' I do A -> B -> C -> A then A -> D -> C' -> A.

Hmm. I think I take a look at DR and guess where it ends up, but I never plan how it goes solved during inspection...

Also, this thread moves too damn quickly.

Oh I don't plan the whole second block
I find the pieces of it (and, like you, figure out how DR is solved) then track them.

And ye this thread moves way too quickly. But itis the one question answer thread.

Edit: oh i see what you mean. Well i just track the pieces of the second block. After finding pieces in inspection. I usually forget the last pair though, which I can find during solving.

 

[Incanumix]

I have a 30second avg, sub 35 time.
How many solves a day do you guys recommend for me, if i wanted to reach sub 20 in a few months?

Where can I get goo gone? or goo off? or something like that to get sticker goo off in Australia, Sydney?

Can you use custom magic inserts in competitions?

Can you use custom magic inserts in competitions?

From what I understand of the regulations, as long as it has the normal solution, yes.
