Hey everyone, Like many of y'all, I'm very disappointed with the announcement of clock being removed from the WCA. So as one does, I asked my gf to make a...

I'm currently taking an Intro to Machine Learning course, and my semester-long project focuses on using ML to help find new (human usable) 3x3 methods. I need some help coming up with metrics on how to quantify 3x3 methods. I definitely want to post my findings once the project is complete, but...

I'm going to be hosting cubing related Jeopardy for the cubing club at my university. Does anyone have any good ideas for questions? We've done this before and it went pretty well. But for this time, we'd love to have an outside perspective to give us fresh ideas that we may have considered...

Hey everyone! I've been learning 7-Simul and I wanted to use a trainer to practice my memo. Tommy Cherry's tutorial links to Joshua Marriott's trainer, and I found this to be a pretty good trainer. However, I found it confusing that the trainer expects you to memo with black upside down, and...

Hey everyone! My name is Caleb Fox and I'm vice president of the Cubing Club at Virginia Tech. We have casual weekly meetings on every Friday, and every third week we host unofficial competitions. We post our results on our website, which keeps track of our records and rankings. Our club has...

Today is the 8th year anniversary of one of the most insane days in the cubing community. For those of you who don't know, on November 21st 2015, Collin Burns got a 5.21 misscramble solve. Had this solve not been a misscramble, it would've broken the previous world record of 5.25 - which he held...

As we all know, the Rubik's Cube has 43 quintillion possible combinations. Even with over 450 million cubes existing in the world, it is mathematically impossible for every combination to have been seen by a human. And with realizing that there's so many possible cube states that we've never...

I've been getting into making cool graphs in the desmos graphing calculator. It's what my highschool used and what my college is using, so I've become familiar with it and make things which I find to be cool. Most recently, I created a puzzle that was inspired by a 2x2, 15 puzzle and clock. I...

I forget if I posted something like this a few months ago, but I may have. Basically, I live in a super small town where good jobs are far and few, and my dad got laid off, so we have to move. I was thinking we would move to somewhere like Virginia Beach, but now it turns out we are moving to...

Edit: I am going to the beach on the 30th. PM me any bulk offers while I'm gone. I decided the lowest I'm going for is 75+shipping (If its like 5$ or less, I won't charge you.) If I have nothing, I will list prices on each cube. I have gotten a few cubes over some time and have decided I...

Hey everyone. My name is Caleb Fox. I am living in Galax, Virginia currently, but stuff going on with my dads job will probably make us move near Virginia Beach. Any cubers out their? It would be cool to find some new friends, and any local cuber at all. If you live near Virginia Beach, or...

(Asking for friend.) Hey! Any ZZ solvers? Would you mind filling this out? https://goo.gl/forms/1ROTK68T9AFI1Lny2

Here is the spot to predict the next thread made by Competition Cuber and maybe even give him a few ideas.

Hey everyone. My name is Caleb Fox. I have been working with breaks on the method for about a year and just finally got around to publish it. It still has lots of errors, no pics for the algs, terrible algs, but it works as far as I know. Now I don't think that this is gonna be the thing that...

We went off on a tangent in the Home schooled cubers group chat about if a 9 second solve is good for someone who got it when 16-17 seconds. I decided the only way to find out was to find the ratio of my single to average. I have 1.71 whereas greentgoatgal has 1.8. How many people have worse...

So I saw that many people here know some Pi, and I was wondering if anyone learned Morse Code. I know Morse Code, but only just.

Just wanted to bring something up. We need better judges. Maybe we don't need to do the test I was talking about, but down here in the south, we suck at judges. At Crossroads, I saw many Judges sign their name on the score card before I even did my solve! I could easily wright something down...

Hey! Just wanted to see if their are any cubers around me. I already have gotten 4 people cubing, so I know their are 5 of us. Wanted to see if their are anymore. (Note: I live in a small town called Galax, but anywhere from the most southern western part of Va North west of NC.
