Ya I was kind of jobless.So I did this.First attempt. Total time: 5 hrs 50 mins 28.54 secs Total moves: 7824 I am sure I can cut off atleast another 100 mins when I try next time. As you can see, I screwed up PLL parity thrice.Bah.

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread to wish people on their birthdays. So, Happy Birthday Mike and niKo!:)

I found this really nice game: http://numbrosia.com Hope you guys like it.

Scramble: F2 L' D L R' D' U L2 R' D U' R' B2 F L U' L' R2 U' B F2 L R D2 R' Sorry for the bad light.I took the video late in the night.

Hi, I came across this interesting PHP script which makes cubes out of the image we provide. Give it a shot: http://www.dumpr.net/rubik.php

Hi , Inspite of trying a lot to get JRE working on my computer, I haven't been able to do so. So does any one know of any kind of cube simulators made in flash? Please post the links to all the cube related flash simulators you know.

All those who attended the world championship, please write down your experiences and if you have made any report or some sort of gallery of pics, do link them here. Thought it would be helpful to all, especially to those who couldnt make it(Like me).:)

Hi, I am sure this may not be very new but I didnt find this idea being discussed elsewhere.Anyway.. Well has anyone tried CO without commutators?For example using OLLs and then correcting the permutation of edges. For example: 234cw- [R U R' U R U2 R'] U' [ R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2 ] U' This...

I found this nice video.Hope you guys like it.:)

I found this nice article about a recent finding.These people have proved using a supercomputer that all 3x3x3 configurations can be solved in lesser than 26 moves. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6949149.stm Pretty Cool!

I made(accidentally) my first ever video today.So I am sharing with you people here.I know I am slow.I am almost done with the PLLs.Will start learning OLLs soon.My F2L also is not very fluent.Suggestions and comments are welcome.

I kinda like slice moves(esp M slice).I happen to be way faster at algs involving slice moves(Ex.Z perm,H perm).So if anyone of you know any algs(not necessarily PLL) involving slice moves please post them here. Here are mine: ----PLL---- Z perm-(M2' U) (M2' U) (M' U2) (M2' U2) (M' U2) H...

I tried solving the 3x3 super cube on Gabbasoft today.I am actually happy with my first trials today.Well every time I solved it,I ended up with misoriented centres. So to fix a centre of the top layer which is mis oriented by 180 degrees,I made this move (RUR'URU2R'U2)x3 which is nothing but a...

I learnt to do the 4x4x4 recently.I learn from bigcubes.com. But I think we can correct the OLL parity before finishing solving it like a 3x3. I do a 4 look LL 3x3.So when I have finished my F2L I correct the parity then and there by looking at the number of correctly oriented edges in the LL...

Has anyone tried cubing while looking into the mirror?? Its very weird but its lots of fun. Your whole brain has to get adjusted to the mirrored image.. If you haven't tried,give it a shot...Its really cool!!

Hi all! I dont know how many of you know about this software.Found it very good and useful.It can simulate cubes upto the order if 20x20.So I thought I can share the link.Here it is... Cube Software Happy Cubing!

Hi all What is the one step stop solve?Can anyone explain it to me? Please post a link to a tutorial or a video if possible.

Hi all! I plan to make a Cube solving Robot this summer.I have a dedicated team and we are planning to start in June. Well I know a few such robots have already been made but we thought of giving it a shot ourselves. Firstly we plan to make a simulation of the cube and solve it virtually. We...

Hi all! Today reached sub-1-minute for the first time.Reached around 54 secs. I have been cubing since march 03. So is the progress I have made good,bad or average? I had read that with a beginners sub-1-minute was possible.Now that I have reached that, what do you advanced cubers suggest me to...

Hi all! I was just fiddling with my cube and found this interesting move.I dunno if someone already has an idea about this kinda move. Here(In the pic) by doing(G=F) R2 U2 R' U2 R' U2 R' the G-R edge and O-G-R corner are joined.But in the process the R-O edge which is a part of the cross in the...
