Hey guys! I know it's been like a year since I've posted on here. I don't really cube much anymore, but I still do love doing it. I am in my freshman year at The University of Kansas and I was just wondering if there were any other cubers that go here or live in the area. Cheers!

Hey guys, I am not a huge MBLDer just because the attempts take too long and it's kind of mentally taxing, but I like to do an attempt every once in a while. My family sold our house and moved to an apartment about a week ago while we find a different house to move into. Yesterday I decided to...

I've never really uploaded any of my solves for anything, so here's my fastest single on 5x5 at Lawrence. This was part of a 1:59.09 average. I am really happy that I got a sub 2:00 average because that was my goal. Huge thanks to Aussie Greene and his Dad for videoing and sending it to me.

I was just looking around on thecubicle.us and read the "In other news..." section under the latest announcements. So what do you guys think about this? "Recent Arrivals: FangShi XingYu 2x2, MoYu Wheel of Time, and the MoYu HuaChuang. Coming soon... MoYu 13x13 Stickerless and even more new...

IDK why, but for some reason a couple of days ago this game has basically gone viral around my school. I just got it today and it's pretty fun. Anyone on here play? My username is just Rocky0701.

I was tensioning my SS mini 7x7 today and accidentally stripped the top of a screw, now it is pretty much impossible to unscrew. I know that I can just buy a new hardware set, but how should I get the original screw out without damaging my cube? Any tips?

So my 4x4 race thread has been pretty popular since I started it, and I have always wished that there was a 5x5 one, so I figured why not? I will post an ao12 weekly using scrambles from either CStimer or QQtimer, if an ao12 is too long for you, feel free to just do the first 5 scrambles. You...

I just used application tape for the first time to resticker my 5x5, and the results were not good. On the first side, I only got like 5 stickers to come off of the sticker sheet. I was able to get it from the tape onto the cube right, but couldn't get the stickers onto the tape. I used a credit...

My high school has a math and science club that meets after school and has different projects and stuff. One of their goals this year was to host a presentation on how to solve a Rubik's cube and advertise it around the school for anyone interested in coming. Nobody in the math and science club...

So I have been cubing for a little over a year now, and I am averaging sub 20 on 3x3, 1:15 on 4x4, 7 on 2x2, 45 on OH, and 3 on 5x5. How fast were you guys from the moment you first learned how to solve the cube, to now? The poll will only be for 3x3, but when you post you can put different...

So there has always been talk about how people can still be really fast with LBL and 4LLL, I haven't done LBL since I was averaging like 45 seconds with 4LLL and F2L, and so a little bit ago, I was bored so I timed an ao12 with LBL and 4LLL. I was actually faster than I thought and noticed that...

Hello! So it seems that people have been enjoying my 4x4 race thread, but i noticed that there wasn't a 2x2 race thread, so i have decided to make one. This will be a race to sub 10 8 6 5 4 3.5 3.25 3 2.75 2.5 2.25 and 2, you will graduate once you are sub-x, 3 attempts in a row, you can miss...

I thought it would be cool to see how fast some of us speedcubers can turn, so what is the highest TPS that you have ever gotten on any puzzle with an algorithm, or a random commutator etc.? Mine is just the classic sexy move x 6 Time: 2.31 TPS: 10.39

I think this could be a fun discussion. Do you think that someone would be able to teach an animal to solve a 3x3, if so which animal, and how would it be approached? I think that it could be very possible to teach a primate to solve the cube since they are pretty smart, and would be able to...

I have seen many people describe their "global averages" many different ways lately, but i have not seen a real definition of a "global average". I know what it means to me, and the basic concept, but how would you guys define it, and/or calculate it? I have seen people do ao1000's to figure it...

Hello! I was solving 4x4 today and wondered if there was a 4x4 thread. I searched it and saw a thread that looked like it used to be pretty popular, but the author didn't post scrambles anymore, so i decided to make my own. I am definitely not a fast 4x4 solver, but that's what race threads are...

I searched this and all i could find were threads about the number of algorithms that you know for 3x3, but i thought it would but fun to see how many algorithms you know for all of your twisty puzzles combined. I will make a poll too, but post below how many algorithms you know for each puzzle...

Moyu is also going to produce skewbs and pyraminxs guys! http://bbs.mf8-china.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=101574

I searched this and the only thread i could find is outdated. So how do you guys store/display your cube collection?

Has anyone ever noticed that if you hold a solved cube and do R2 Y 24 times the cube solves it self again, i know that stuff like R U R' U' or R U R' U do, but has anyone ever seen this?
