I am looking for a utility that must be very common, yet despite many searches, I haven't found it. You take a list of algorithms, say 40 of them, cut-and-paste them into the utility, the utility inverts the algorithms to create scrambles, and then spits out a random sequence of those scrambles...

So I got my first Gan 356i smart cube yesterday. First I had problems getting it to charge, the base adapter always shows a green light no matter if the cube is connected or not. There is no user manual of any kind, neither in the box, or online, anywhere. It turns out you need to have the...

For those solvers with very high TPS, I am wondering how long does it take you to learn a new algorithm to the point that you can execute it with perfect (ingenious) finger tricks at maximum TPS. Bindedsa talks about learning an algorithm in 10 minutes. While I am capable of memorizing the...

Female world record single BY FAR. Not sure why this hasn't received more attention! She had a slow reaction to identify the PLL skip. I re-measured her time as 4.85 if she managed to look ahead and realize she was getting a skip... Congratulations to Dana!

I have created an extremely simplistic utility to help drill algorithms in a new way (unless perhaps someone has already done this before?) The problem with slide show algorithm drilling is that you don't really know if you executed the algorithm flawlessly and it doesn't teach the real feel of...

I am creating a specific thread to compile all related research & development of the WaterRoux method which was originally discussed in the New Method thread. MAJOR EDIT April 13 2017: Updated this original post to reflect the current state of WaterRoux. After extensive discussion and real...

Hi all, It seems rumors of my 28-move speed solve have reached as far as top cubers in China and I have recently received various requests for a more detailed description of this LMCF (low movecount corners first) method. I have now created a 43-page elaborate description of the method with...

Hi Guys, With recent surge in excellent Megaminx times posted around the world I thought I would share an unusual Megaminx method from 1983. I got my first Megaminx in '83, and there were no books on how to solve it (nor internet), I came up with a method that finishes differently than the...

With a lot of exciting activity happening in the development of new 3x3 methods (such as ECE), I think it would be really helpful to establish what are the actual records for non-CFOP speedsolves. For example, what are the fastest official averages for Roux, ZZ, Petrus, Waterman and any other...

For the last two months I have been developing a new speedcubing method, the details of which are irrelevant, but what is important for Roux solvers is that my method ends with Roux L6E. While a couple of people like Alex Lau and Guroux can do L6E in 2 seconds, this is a huge challenge for most...

2x2 Experts! I need your help with some cube timings. First I will explain what I would appreciate from you, then I will explain why I need it: 1. Randomly scramble five to ten 3x3 cubes 2. Do not inspect the cubes 3. Start your timer 4. Consecutively solve the *corners only* using 2x2...
