Sounds similar to: It's both inspiring and frustrating how easy he makes it look.. Must be that amazing Aolong V2 hardware he's using :)

I'm reminded of this scientific/comedic gem: http://www.peepresearch.org/solubility.html Also, thanks for the videos, they're fascinating, and your enthusiasm is infectious!

As someone who's excited about DNM-37 more just to experiment with shear thinning handfeel than actually wanting a faster, cube, I'm curious if I missed anything similar talking about the badass rockstar tech behind what makes Silk cooler than just a low viscosity siloxane ?

Woot! Another grown up going! Would totally recommend competing as well, but just being there is tons of fun. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

https://www.speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Multislotting ? Almost every mention of it I've heard had a phrase along the lines of "but, in practice it may not be worth the trouble" Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

When I went down the lube rabbit hole a while back, one of the few things I hadn't seen mentioned at all was trying boron nitride. As for the lube nirvana of which you speak, I'm curious if it's quantifiable in terms of stokes/poise/density. The reading expedition I did on the subject mostly...

Jayden's WTRS series is definitely one of my favourites as well! Chris Olson also did a walkthrough video in that style, which contained one of my favourite terms, "panic cross". Given some of his comments, he may have been the source for Jayden's idea :) Has anyone else started doing...

This is definitely something I struggle with, drawing lines between efficiency and f2l "bling". One of the initial thoughts I had was to start looking at cubesolv.es reconstructions to see what actually happens in solves, and quickly started wondering how much "confirmation bias" (or something...

Congrats to all the UK folks, hope everyone enjoyed the congregation/competition. I haven't been this jealous not to live there since my first taste of clotted cream.

Have you already stumbled on macky's F2L pages at cubefreak.net ? Different slots, special cases, comments, sounds like it might be just the ticket (other than the broken images). Going through archive.org's wayback machine can fix some of the broken images, but not all of them e.g...

I totally agree on both accounts, the pure gold, and the too fancy. I think that particular F2L trick I initially picked up from this video (starts at 2:30). I think Collin's video tends towards the less fancy and more towards just efficient F2L algs. He's also my role model for sledgehammer...

Depending how many you're buying, might be worth doing the math and paying for shipping from zcube, they tend to win out for budget cubes in any sort of multiple quantity. Whereas the free shipping for the "new moyu cube of the week" tends to make cubezz appealing for those purchases. E.g...

I wouldn't abandon all hope with the new Qiyi 6x6 (Wuhua), it's possible that it might just need some setup work. My big cube experience tops out at a barely used Yuxin 5x5, but Chris Olson had the Wuhua in his latest unboxing alongside the Weishi GTS, and seemed to be far more enthused about...

+1 on the Fangyuan love. I would even go so far as eliminate budget when declaring my love for it. I'm fascinated by how versatile it is, out of the box, it felt a bit like a GTS made from cheaper plastic, but once I setup the tensions and gave it a thorough dose of Traxxas, it feels more like a...

Just got back from my first comp, and thanks to everyone in the thread who has exuberantly recommended going in the past. It was awesome! On the comp side, had a lovely mix of nerves and good results. Sharing and comparing cubes at the practice tables was also all kinds of fun. Some of the best...

I'm curious and excited to see what kind of something you have in mind. :)

Woooo! Looks like the source was added to github here: https://github.com/cs0x7f/cstimer Reading through the source, I suspect it's even possible to serve the html from github itself with some minor changes.

I was trying to access the source at the sinaapp.com site listed, but after trying for several days in a row and receiving nothing but messages that google translate says are "site has exceeded budget" errors, I'm wondering if there is a mirror of the source somewhere else ? I'd be happy to help...
