I think there is a length limit and a line limit, so if you have 1 really long line, then it won't let you have any more.

Well I understand that too. But I'm not making it any longer. It won't even let me do exactly the same as the way it is now which is just stupid.

Ok then. What is the fastest method to solve a 2x2? CLL?

how long does the lubix lube 2cc stays...by lubing a 3X3 cube....?
which one should i get d39 silicone spray or lubix 2cc lube...?
and how much a 10 ml maru lube stays by lubing a 3X3 cube..?

one more question...
how much time will lubixcube.com and icubemart.com take to ship to india...?

plss i want a reply to this....

Maru lube won't probably last too long on your cube. and I think Lubix can stay for months on your cube(It did last a month on mine)
You can't really go wrong with those two (d39 & lubix) But I highly suggest you go get a lubix, but d39 isn't so bad.

As for shipping. I dont know lol

How to solve the 4x4

I can solve the 2x2 and the 3x3 (both beginner methods) and i want to know what extra algorithms are needed and general help on how to make the transition between 3x3 and 4x4. I don't need a particularly fast method but an easy-ish method.

OLL parity, PLL parity and an alg for the last 2 edges

I recently ordered a Dayan megaminx and I want to get stickers or tiles for it. Would normal stickers/tiles fit on it since it is signifcantly bigger than most (meffers, mf8, qj, etc.)? If not where could I get ones that fit? And does anyone know where to get tiles with the same color scheme as the dayan (same as mf8)?

OLL parity, PLL parity and an alg for the last 2 edges

Technically you don't need an algorithm for last two edges because it's quite intuitive (slice, flip, slice back), but for a beginner, I guess it would be helpful.
There isn't much to 4x4; when I first started I just thought it was hard because it took a really long time. Also, finding pieces becomes harder because there are more pieces.

hey....i m speedcubing from 3 months now....
my average is 45 seconds....and personal best is 27 seconds...
i ve learnt half of pll..and 2 look oll
how long will it take to get an average of sub 30.....if i do 50 solves a day...?

A month to several months depending on how fast you improve and how well you understand the cube.

When you learn all of your PLLs your times will significantly decrease. Seriously.

Meffert's megaminx or Dayan's megaminx

Which megaminx is the best between Meffert's megaminx and Dayan's megaminx? (In question of speed, feel, smothness, popping, lockoups etc.)

I prefer dayan.

Re: The One Answer Question Thread

IMO it is better to "destroy" it as it gives you an extra empty slot and thus more freedom during f2l.

what does gummy mean? i hear it EVERYWHERE, and when researching lubing answers, i see something about it being "gummy" if i do it one way. i want to know what that means so i can choose whether i like gumminess or not.

 

[jackdexter75]

I'd really like to download a good Oll recognition trainer. Do they still exist?

Update: nevermind I found it on Badmephisto's page

How do I get my F2L to sub 20 without having to learn algs? Btw, I don't mean the whole cube just my F2L part.

Practice, find more efficient ways to do cases, practice, and more practice.

Gumminess kinda means a puzzle that is so overlubed it feels sticky and turns with some resistance.

I've had my zhanchi for a while and noticed that there are scratch marks on the pieces inside. I think these are due to friction. Do I need to get rid of them? Are they slowing my cube down in any way?
