    [Review] GAN 356 X

    Sorry to be a bit retarded :) GAN couldn't do much for me they said (the guy barely mastered the English language in fact) but I contacted The Cubicle and couple weeks later they sent me a container with what appears to be a collection of leftover tubes. So now I have some spares :)

    [Review] GAN 356 X

    Received my 356X today. Factory lubed, sadly, but that can be overcome. What really p*sses me off is that It lacks 2 yellow magnetic tubes while I have 2 greens too many. Anybody else with this issue? I can't really start setting it up like this. Will stick with my 354 M for now. Have asked GAN...

    2019 Cubing New Years Resolutions / Goals

    That is a very good point indeed :D I don't REALLY need a Valk M AND a GAN356Air SM AND a 354M... I don't even have a wife :D And it's never been a goal really, but it keeps stacking up by now... Goals: 3x3 sub-45 4x4 sub 2:30 5x5 sub 6:00 6x6 sub 12:00 7x7 sub 18:00 2x2 - 5x5 relay sub...

    Challenge for yourself: Solve into checkerboard

    Like title says: If you're about done with 3x3 or 5x5, why not try to solve it into the checkerboad pattern? Without passing along the solved state along the way of course. I found it quite educational and challenging :) Just give it a try and let me know what you think!

    [Help Thread] Is my cube / puzzle a dud?

    Well, just about a few. Just puts me off actually. Compared to the GAN, I think the Valk M shouldn't be THAT sturdy... But I'll give it a couple hundred solves, maybe it gets better.

    [Help Thread] Is my cube / puzzle a dud?

    Is my cube defective or what? Right out of the box the Cubicle Valk M feels like it was lubed with a kind of glue that just won't dry completely. I already tried loosening all the screws by at least half a turn, no difference at all. Am I doing something wrong? The GAN 356 Air SM I received in...

    Most Efficient Way to Digitally Store CubeStates?

    But 48 bytes is like 384 bits, not at all efficient :?

    Probability Thread

    What are the odds for hitting edge parity on a 4 x 4? I'd say 40 %, since there are 5 possible situations after F3L (0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 dedges flipped) and only 2 of these are "wrong" (1 and 3). However, after several dozens of solves I can't seem to get any less than a 60 % chance to hit edge...
