The One-Answer Question Thread [closed]

ok, I'm gonna sound dumb here, but what is a M turn and what is a M' turn? I mean the algs I use that involve M use the clockwise M when viewed from the R side, however I see lots of people on this sight say it's the other way around... clarification please!!!

M turns the same way as L, so
M = l L' = r' R
M' = l' L = r R'

Does anybody can tell me the difference from a Guhong v1 a Guhong v2 and the hybrid cube from 5BLD?

 

[5BLD]

My hybrid cube was guhong2 core with old guhong corners and a newer old guhong edges. I think the difference in feel is due to the different mods done to the pieces and how well they are broken in.

Now i have replaced the core with an
Alpha core with new guhong(1) centre pieces. When i bought this new guhong i realised a huge difference between modded and not. When a guhong is modded it changes a lot...

And what of the cubes you tried was the best one? Because your cube looks so softy in your videos

 

[aznanimedude]

petrus i feel isn't used as much because it's really good if you're CN, but not so much if you're used to say CFOP with a fixed color cross. and because it's so dependent on good block building

uvafan is good with ZZ. He switched to it at the end of april with like ~45s average and he's already nearly sub15. Phil Yu/asmallkitten is really good at ZZ OH, and I guess that makes him good at ZZ. He's like 14 2H, 12 OH, I think. I don't really know who else for ZZ, and I don't know any speedy Petrus users.

When referring to a corner sticker, is there a standard for the order of the last two letters? For example, ULF or UFL.

Doesn't matter. Personally I normally have U/D, L/R, and then F/B (in terms of 2nd+3rd letter priorities) but it doesn't matter.

he asked for a corner sticker in which case it does matter(UFL and ULF are on different faces) but if he was asking for a corner piece it doesn't matter which order u put the last 2 letters

Whoops. Sticker, yes, it matters. I must've read it as piece (which is probably what he meant)
