    YJ Rant

    YJ has produced great budget cubes, and great cubes in general. Like literally, like these days (at least for the MGC line), they've just been smashing the best cubes out of the water for every single release. Like, just look at their 6x6. Everyone uses it. But there's one aspect of cubes YJ...

    PLL practice drill idea

    I wanted to see what CFOP step I was the worst at, and it turned out to be PLL. So I came up with a practice drill to practice it: In csTimer, set the "Multi-phase" option to 2, because we will record 2 times at once. Do the scramble, and solve F2L (or, if you don't use full OLL, solve F2L +...

    What do you think the limit is for "beginners can figure it out"?

    Puzzle Positions Maximum moves to solve optimally Difficulty 3x3 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 20 Around the middle of the line 1x2x2 6 3 Stupidly easy There must be some point in between above which beginners would get stuck, but below which beginners could figure out by either putting...

    Is it just me or is the WCA website down?

    So I wanted to look around the WCA website, and it appears to be down. Is it just me? If it's not did it just decide to go down like all websites do sometimes, or did the WCA intentionally do this to make some major changes or something like that? Edit: (Just noticed Max Park broke the 3x3 WR...

    Puzzle collection, sorry if I posted this in the wrong category, I just thought it's not a video so I'm posting it here

    I already posted about my speedsolving averages, so I thought I'd also post about my puzzle collection. Sorry if this is in the wrong category, most people are posting this kind of stuff in video gallery, but this is not a video so I'm posting it here. Main Speedcubes: 3x3: GAN 11M Duo, it's...

    Mains, Methods, and Averages, but this time more detailed

    3x3: I use the GAN 11M Duo. I chose it because at the time I got it the GAN 11M Pro was GAN's flagship cube, and I thought the Duo was just a cheaper alternative which is basically the same. I use CFOP with white/yellow cross, intermediate F2L, 2-look OLL and full PLL. I average 35 seconds. 2x2...

    My self-developed (almost) Master Pyraminx method

    So I recently bought 4 new puzzles. 2 of them I already knew how to solve, 1 was really easy to figure out, but the last one, the Master Pyraminx, was quite interesting. I wanted to share the method I came up with here. If you know how to solve both a 4x4 and a Pyraminx, this should all make...

    Question: how are the points calculated?

    I have been competing in the weekly forum competition, and I saw a point system. Because I'm into this sort of thing, I am now curious how the points are calculated, and what the difference is between them and the "kinch score" which is also present.

    [Member Intro] My intro

    Hello! I'm Simon. I have only been cubing for around 6 months right now, but ever since I knew how to solve a cube I have been pretty hardcore about it. I'm pretty slow, but here are my methods/averages: 3x3 - CFOP - around 40 2x2 - Ortega - around 12 4x4 - Yau - haven't practiced in a while...
