The One-Answer Question Thread [closed]

[googlebleh]

I know two OLL parity algs while the first one swaps the front two corners and two edges like an F-perm(the alg which most people use-r U2 x r U2...) and flips the dedge, the second alg swaps only the two corners and flips the dedge . So if I have OLL parity, I will do one of the two algs.If I can predict that I have PLL parity,I will do the second alg and I don't have to do the PLL parity alg . Tell me a way to predict that I have PLL parity.

ohh...I see

So as far as tutorials go, I don't know of any good ones, but jskyler wrote up a thing some time ago about this. Basically, you have to look at the permutation of the unoriented pieces and determine whether it looks like a PLL or not. Without parity, even unoriented pieces should still be permuted in a pattern similar to a PLL case.

On 5x5, my splits are 51-1:22-34 (did an ao12 for each, kinda slow but proportionate to normal times). Which step need the most work?

Centers and edges. Try and get centers to 40, and edges to 1:00 or less.

That's like saying: "How much would a person be affected if you punch him?" It all depends on how hard you punch, where you punch, etc.

Just dropped it on the ground from about 120 cm high, no throwing.

Should be fine. I dropped my weilong on concrete the other day doing OH. Probably like 4 feet high. It bounced on the edge and it was fine.

I wish to take my GuHong to the next level. Is it worth ditching the Dayan core for a Cube4You core? I would be keeping dayan hardware

That would make no difference to the speed (or any other useful aspect) of the cube.

It's just because the threading on those is great and screws are always straight, so I thought it may help

This, but also the fact that the core is extremely durable. The cube might last longer before it needs another hardware change. Dayan cores can be just as straight if bought assembled or if you do it yourself and pay attention to what you do though.

It's a fairly trivial difference though since dayan cores last for so long as they are.

I would recommend just modding it. Free and more effective.

what do cross and first f2l need to be in order to sub 10?

 

[CheesecakeCuber]

1-2 for cross
6-7 for F2L

But, what do I know...

 

[uberCuber]

what do cross and first f2l need to be in order to sub 10?

Solved.

 

[IQubic]

Solved.

LOL.
He meant how long should it take to solve Cross And F2L for sub-10

:fp. He knew. He was just trolling.

Anyone to the question I'd say 6-7 total, 5 for f2l, 1-2 for cross.

 

[KongShou]

Erm thanks for the reply but I asked for cross and FIRST f2l. Not all of the f2l.

Cheers, I was wondering if there is a break down of sub 10 solves somewhere but I can't find it.

I'm almost sub10 and my cross+1 is normally 2-3ish (most solves I plan out cross+1 in inspection)

can anyone suggest some good 3 style blindfold method tutorial videos and websites ?

You seem to ask this same question a lot...Anyway: Noahcubes (Noah)

 

[hkpnkp]

are 3 cycle bld method and 3 style bld method the same ?
