My approach to multiBLD memorization is constantly changing...and sometimes small tweaks can have big effects. Whenever I watch videos of multi attempts, I take note of how memo is being done. I don't think there is a universally optimal system, but hearing what others are doing may help us...

I'm curious if there is a sequence of 3x3 turns that, if repeated, would land on every state in cube space? Give the some 43 quadrillion states, there's no chance of brute forcing a solution. Surely mathematics would get you there, but I don't even know where to start, lol! Anyone want to...

In an effort to get my cubesmith order up to $15 to qualify for free shipping, I got a sheet of nearly every color offered. I've been laying out different combinations and considering untraditional color schemes, for maximized recognition and also for aesthetics. I was looking for color theory...

Over the last couple days I've been reading up on what ZB is all about. Granted I'm new to these methods, but it looks like ZZ and ZBF2L both solve first two layers and orient LL edges. Am I missing something; why learn some 125 algs when the same thing can be done intuitively?

I'm trying to figure out mathematically how many moves it would take repeating the sequence (R F L B) to get from a solved state back to a solved state. I don't even know where to start. Anyone up for the challenge? Interesting observation: U edges never enter the B layer and B edges never...

http://www.jaapsch.net/puzzles/diamond.htm appears to be the only guide on the internet. I've spent a few hours with it but I'm having a hard time following the instructions. It's unclear how I'm supposed to be holding the puzzle and exactly what face he's referring to in the algorithms...

I was setting up a Seattle Cubing Meetup over on meetup.com but realized that there's a monthly fee to maintain a group. So I wanted to see if there was any interest before continuing on. Hell, we could even forgo meetup.com and organize ourselves. So what do you say Seattleites?
