Older cubers discussions

Getting tired of me already?.. all those boring videos.. LOL


EDIT:

I just did a great CN Ao12. Only two white crosses in there:

Average of 12: 30.70
23.40 32.15 27.12 26.57 (41.04) 33.73 34.07 39.93 (14.39) 39.93 29.56 20.51

The 14.39 (!!) and the last one where on white.. Yeah... everything will be allright in a while.. ;) Then I can call all the single cross solver 'pussies' LOL

Re: Hi, Marcel from Holland here

You better think twice before calling me pussy, or I might travel all the way to Holland to kick your cubic as* lol

Good average though, I don't plan on becoming color neutral but I'm sure it's really helpful :D
 
That average was on all colors. All good times where on green and blue. And all bad times where on red and orange. Not bad considering I have not practiced red and orange one bit. :) I really wish I could practice more than I can these days.. I think I am addicted LOL...
 
Because it's personal, easy to track, has times, and has a variety of methods and puzzles with which to follow. Also, there is a community.

LOL, an addiction with little side effects (thank god)..

I dunno about that. It does take time. Money too (even though it's relatively cheap for a hobby). I think about cubes a lot and dream about cubes. And withdrawal symptoms would probably be twitchy fingers or something.

Hehe... but really, for me it's brain exercise. I need it.
 
Yeah.. and you know what.. we Dutch folk don't have a proper word for it.. so it goes like..

"kubussen"

Uhm what?

"Rubik kubussen?"

Roling eyes and then "Oh that".

I wanna smack those folk, truly. LOL
 
Does that work better with less rolling of the eyes? :)

Cause I will change to that if so.

They usually shut up when I tell them I have a world ranking on the thing. *snort*

hmmm... I dunno, only a couple of people have rolled their eyes at me, but they were doing it jokingly. I guess I'm already labeled "nerd", so it's expected of me. haha!

I don't have a world ranking yet, but it'd be hilarious to see their reactions when I tell them lol

Well, I don't know what it is about cubing that makes it so addictive. I suppose it has something to do with,
- Getting improvement real easily
- Impress the 'none believers'
- All the different and interesting methods
- There are so many Chinese stores where you can buy that one cube you still do not have

Yes, it takes time. But that is with most hobbies. ;) For me, I use my travel time to work each day to practice about 75 - 100 slow solves.
