To some people, "intuitive" means the use of 3-cycle commutators. So, he probably started with commutators and is learning how to solve them the common way (where it's the reverse order for most people).

4x4x4's last two centers are relatively easy to resolve compared to larger cube sizes. I know that there is such a resource available (for more than a decade for sure, probably close to two decades) for the last two centers of 5x5x5. https://cube.garron.us/big_cubes/L2C/ You can just pay...

I already did to the best of my ability. Many, but not all, algorithms have this already. If they did not, they most likely came from a Cube Explorer search, for which it would be unknown who originally found it. Unless an algorithm, such as the 15 move single dedge flip by Frédérick Badie or...

To answer the question in the original post, I doubt it. The only type of method which could at least stand out from CFOP is a new mathematics-based one. Speedsolving methods/variants/substeps etc. are, as most of us know, are already plentiful (and always increasing in number). It doesn't...

Anyone of the first 8 algs in this list will solve it completely. (Just apply the algorithm with blue in front and yellow on top.)

Not that I care that my name be added to a list or anything, but I speedrun two games rather competitively. They are not so popular games now, but they were games that I grew up with. I am also a moderator of both games: Knights and Merchants Test Drive 6 I have done many speedruns in Knights...

I bought an 11x11x11 when they first came out. It was like holding a brick in your hands while solving, and the stickers in the center would get slightly damaged if you put it on a table in any way other than extremely gentle . . . my advice to anyone who is interested in buying a really big...

In the supercube single dedge flip algorithm part of the wiki, which I see you already had a peak at, specifically, in the yellow (highlighted) side note, I provide a link to a post of mine which is a mathematical expression which tells you the minimum number of center pieces which must be...

Just search "STEM toys", and that should get you started. Using this page which lists journal search engines, I just used Google Scholar and the first search result's abstract seems to be along the lines of what you're looking for. (The "You Can Do the Rubik's Cube" program has integrated the...

I don't know how I missed this thread, but embedding the cube simulator into posts!? That is neat! Thanks, Lucas, for all that you: have done, are currently doing, and all you will do!

Everyone who has used a guide of some kind to solve it should vote no. (If it was intuitive for you all who voted yes, you wouldn't need help of any kind to solve it.) This poll should only be for those who actually solved it with absolutely no help from anyone or anything (if we want to be...

I have been wanting to ask this question for several weeks to those that live in (and also those who have recently visited) Australia, but I guess when I saw this video today, I had more of a motivation to ask if human rights are being taken away to this extreme in Australia (due to covid).

I just expressed this as a mathematical sequence with Wolfram Alpha (Link) . . . so that we can do Max further justice. (Just change the 1001 to whatever positive integer you want . . . but if WolframAlpha fails to compute, you chose a number too large for WolframAlpha.)

What? Why? Is November the last month of the year?

Yeah, it doesn't make sense to call a member who was a member before the year in question to be considered as a new member in the year in question. But also, with that same reasoning, I have to comment about the post date of this forum awards thread. It's annoying to see the announcing of the...

Someone pointed out to me (after I first posted it in January of 2016) that my 18 SQTM (block quarter turn) single dedge flip algorithm for the 4x4x4 has ruler at the end. r' 3u' 2U' l' 2R' u' 2R' u 3l 2R' u l' u' 2R' u l e' r

Oh yeah, I remember your thread. But isn't your idea and his have conflicting objectives for a beginner's guide? He's not against using move sequences, for example. But it's ironic, because if one aims to do something similar to resolve PLL parity (which this thread is about) as you advertise...

Thanks! But I did make one mistake. The best electronic dehumidifiers have a 50 pint (not liter) capacity. Sorry about that. (But I guess this would be easy to figure out if someone looks to buy one.)
