You guys have been quite helpful in the past so I have an issue. I need to come up with an equation which will allow me to calculate with the savings in an account, which the person continually adds the same percentage of their income into each year. I need it to allow for variables for the...

I want to start with X, divided by 2, and add that number back to X to create Y. That alone is easy. Y=X/2+X I specifically want to start with 8=X. So Y=12, 18, 27.... Here is my problem, I want to repeat the original equation 8,000 times to create a larger and larger number. Short of...

I had finally obtained my F-III today and I just have to say, it is a horrible cube (in comparison to my others.) After having an F-II for three years and absolutely loving it (it was just replaced by my Zhanchi) I expected to F-III to at least be as good if not better than the F-II. Out of my 9...

I am taking an Art class in school in which we find five pictures about a certain subject and create an Art piece about them. I chose puzzles for my subject and I need assistance finding pictures that are "cool"-looking and easy to paint. I need two pictures, I need helping finding something...

I was wondering how many full attempts it took you before you achieved your first successful 3x3 BLD solve. It took me 4 attempts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Twdm2nDKExE In 11:42.74

I obtained my DaYan + Mf8 4x4 today. The very first thing I noticed, a messed up color scheme, the red and green were switched. Most of the stickers had air bubbles beneath them as well. All of the stickers I had to remove had lost the sticky backing so I had to tap into the extra stickers...

I thought I should share this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcq4kD62T9M And yes, I know the links don't work here, they do in the real description.

I had gotten quite a few things already this year, (we celebrate early, weird, I know) and I'll just post about the cube related ones: Mini QJ 4x4 Lanlan 2x2 A-V 3x3 Some picture 3x3 (sucks so bad) Rubik's 5x5 (I know... and I already had one lol) Few things: For the 3x3, I am set, I have an...

This is my first guide, tell me what you think. I did all the moves while facing the back face to make the algorithms (saved in the video description) easier to learn.

I took apart my F-II today and realized there is some strange black liquid around 1 of my screws. I have no clue what this is, the only lubricant I put in my cube was silicone spray. I want to know what this black stuff is because it allows for that face to spin incredibly well. Any clue as to...

I did a quick search and I couldn't find this anywhere so: I was just playing around with my 5x5 and I decided to try a new method: 1. Pair up edges 2. Solve outside edges and corners 3.Solve centers I really doubt this would be useful for a speedsolving method, but I thought it was...

I got a new glow in the dark C4Y cube today: http://cube4you.com/cube4you-3x3x3-diy-glow-in-dark-cube-p-108.html Now, since I lube all of my other cubes with CRC Heavy Duty Silicone Spray I figured it would work for this one too. I sprayed it, let it set, and I tried turning it. Hard as a...

Alright, it seems I've hit a roadblock with my improvement. I am using a Sheng En Type F(ii). I'm using Fridrich method: Cross on bottom F2L 2-Look OLL 1-Look PLL (Still learning, 16/21) My times after solving each step (estimated average): Cross - :10-:13 F2L - :35-:45 OLL -...

I originally learned LBL method and I average around a minute with it. I then started learning Petrus, gave up on that and switched to Fridrich. My question is, which would be faster? cross -> f2l -> oll -> pll or 2x2x1 -> 2x2x2 -> 2x2x3 -> f2l -> oll -> pll Not quite sure where to go...
