    [Member Intro] Hi all, newbie alert

    The smart cube sounds cool, I might try one at some point. I need to sort out a new phone and download that app, my last phone died and I'm using an old Nokia Lumia that refuses to download anything, but phones are expensive now and most of the abilities of new phones I just wont use so its...

    [Member Intro] Hi all, newbie alert

    I appreciate the input, all advice on going colour neutral appears to be that it gets harder to learn the later you learn it, so leaving it til 15seconds seems to fly counter to that advice. The main difficulty for beginners is sorting out their path through conflicting advice, and since the top...

    [Member Intro] Hi all, newbie alert

    Hi Daz. Short answer, more than a minute, but less than two. Full answer, I'm not actually timing accurately, I wanted to get mostly out of beginner method and into enough of cfop before timing as for me I'm enjoying the satisfaction of learning new parts of cfop and knowing I'm improving my...

    One-Answer 3x3x3 Question Thread

    Thanks, xyzzy. I have seen recommendations to start colour neutrality, I tried it once and the solve took five minutes and mashed my brain. It's clearly important, given how often its suggested, but I'm confused as to its benefit, since everyone solves white down. I think ill have to research it...

    Survey for cubing service

    My thoughts on this thread can only be summed-up by paraphrasing Forrest Gump, "sometimes there isn't enough popcorn". On witnessing the steady increase of tantrums from the OP, building to the full super-saiyan of "this is why I don't post here anymore", the only puzzle left to solve (pun and...

    One-Answer 3x3x3 Question Thread

    I'm seeking to improve my cfop and reduce my shockingly excessive cube rotations during f2l. Question: Is it good practice after cross to have a certain colour face pointing towards you, so as you match f2l pairs you always know where each corner combination is located? I know we solve with...

    This is just gatekeeping, and terrible advice. There's absolutely no need to continue with beginners methods until any specific threshold is met. Begin learning beyond beginner whenever suits you.

    [Member Intro] Hi all, newbie alert

    This shows how many options are available to new learners. I'm new too, and started transitioning from beginner to cfop over the last few weeks. My cross is still terrible, I need to start doing it on bottom and much faster, but I watched Jperm's video on cfop and then his f2l video and decided...

    Magnetised cube pieces

    I appreciate English isnt your first language, but I think there is also a fundamental misunderstanding as to the nature of magentism. You cant produce anything with "magnet" as an ingredient as it is a force. We can produce permanent magnets from several metals, but only di-polar magnets...

    Hey. I need to order a moyu rs3m 2020 (for a friend who I've gotten interested in cubing) and also a moyu wrm 2020 for myself as I've only got one budget cube right now, and if I manage to break it ill be gutted not to be able to practice, so may as well grab a decent cube and hold my budget as...
