    I'm not good at these, but I'll give it a shot. I'm assuming you are trying to find out the weight of the heaviest ball? If the other 7 balls are of equal weight, then I'll guess 2. If the other 7 balls are of various weights, then I'll guess 8. how did I do ?

    What do you do to keep fit?

    Age of speedcubing participants?

    Ton said it right. I'm 40, with arthritis, and I'm much faster than I was 2 years ago. Two years ago, I would have never thought I'd get a sub 20 solve and a sub 2 minute bld solve. Current avg at home is about 18-19 secs, pb 12.47 secs. OK, I've only been to 1 competition, but I feel my...
