I got a $35 TheCubicle gift card from a competition but don’t really want any new puzzles. Message me if you’d like to buy it for $25. I take PayPal.

I would like to provide an update on this. I used the color method for memo for a while but I have since transitioned away from it. It was useful but it is definitely not the best method. My most recent memo method uses a similar idea as the colors, but uses a letter instead of a color. The...

Is there actually any demand for Megaminx BLD? I was not aware that anyone was doing it regularly.

It’s up to you. If you want more locations per room you can, just do what makes the most sense to you.

Ultimately you should do whatever feels the most comfortable for you, since everyone is different. However, I think that letters are better than numbers for most people. The strongest piece of evidence is the existence of the Major and Dominic Systems, which convert numbers to letters to make...

I personally had problems using audio for both when I averaged around 1 minute, and I still use images for corners at around 35 seconds.

6x6 Blindfolded 12:37.89 [6:06] Enoch Gray, USA

Whoa, good luck with future attempts! Why did you decide to skip normal 8BLD?

2:45.13 4BLD ao12, which is sub-PR and also my first ao12 with 0 DNFs.

This seems like just a primitive 3-style that relies on setup moves more than a variety of algs

For the first example, you can do [Lw: U2, R’ D R] instead to cancel an R Move and an Lw, and do a rotation instead. For the second example the L2 setup seems far worse than the R setup.

2:57.64 4BLD PB ao12! Very happy that this is sub-3.

Just got a success on the Time Machine Blindfolded (with the numbers in order and everything). It was my second attempt. During the first attempt I quit like 5% into execution because it was too hard. But after magnetizing the puzzle it was a breeze!

Come up with them on the fly for the most part. If you absolutely can’t figure something out, then search it up. That will happen a lot with J, Q, and X.

Whoa, that’s a great success rate! Is this your first ao12 on 6BLD? How many solves did you ‘accidentally’ get success before you started going slow?

If you’re going to do that order of corners then edges, remember that UB and UL will be switched after you execute corners. You’ll need to swap them during memo or find another workaround

In the long run it will be better for you to just go ahead and come up with completely different letter pairs. When you’re memorizing a lot, the images can get vague. You’ll know the basic idea of what it was, but if you have two pairs that are similar, they can get confused. It’s best to make...

5BLD Pb is 5:01, just got a 4:53 off by 2 t-centers.
