4x4. It's the perfect combination of small and big cube, imo. And I love using Hoya.

I saw this at the movie theater. I wish it were fully functional.

When I first started cubing, I was slower when I was being judged at a comp. Now, I seem to do pretty well on the stage, although my best solves are done off-stage. Maybe I got used to solving in front of people. IDK. Anyone else experience this?

first to get a sub 20 on 4x4. Now first to get sub 19. Wow Congratulations, Sebastian!

Oops. Yeah. It's 4x1mm N48. Good catch. Post updated. Got the magnets here : https://thecubicle.us/cubicle-labs-magnet-lite-p-9986.html

I updated my original post. Magnetizing went well despite the size.

Today I bought a Dayan 2x2 off a kid who thought it was an old plastic Dayan 2x2 that had the screws replaced with the newer silver screws. I don't have another one to compare it to. How can I tell if it's a new plastic or old plastic just by looking at it, but without taking the screws into...

*Edit* I think the outer layers are just a LITTLE bit too strong. I plan to replace the outer layers' N50 magnets with 4x2mm N42. I magnetized my WuShuang and it's AMAZING! Big thanks to @DMCubing for the video on magnet placement and polarity. And big thanks to @One Wheel for helping me with...

@DMCubing yes I am using your video as a guide, but I don't have those exact magnets. I have others that are slightly stronger, and I think the ratio would still be good. Thanks for all your great videos!

Cool. That helps tremendously. Ok, so my calculations put me at a choice between either a 77% or 87%. If you're saying the distance is slightly greater in the outer layers, then I'll probably go with 87%, which would match up with your 92% from your earlier post (vice 75% from your recent...

I saw another post you made about the WuShuang that said you used 4x2 N35 (stronger than 4x1.5 N38) on the outer layers. You said the balance between outer and inner were good. Which do you think would be a better balance for the outer layers when using 4x2 N38 on the inner layers? 4x1.5 N38...

*My cube is in Havana, Havana-oo-na-na* :cool:

I made an order from thecubicle.us (GTS2, lube, parts) and I had it mailed to my ship (I'm in the Navy). I checked the tracking info at USPS, and saw this. That's the Zip code for the military base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Perfect. (Standing by for cubing puns)

well, how about, if they are a sub 15 solver, they can buy as many sub-15 coins as they want, especially if they change the design from year to year. i know i would want to get a new one if they made an updated version. just a thought.

If the WCA had a merch store, they could sell these there for people who have a profile that says they have achieved that accomplishment. then just have them mailed after the fact instead of receiving them on the spot at the competition.

Wooden coin for lesser accomplishments Simple metal custom tokens for other stuff Ceramic coins for other milestones such as sub 15 Nice metal coins with painted designs for really cheap if you buy a lot at one time. a cool commemorative coin sold at major WCA Events like Nationals. What...

The food was great. Oh, also the cubing was good. Here's my 4x4 video: Stay tuned for my 3x3 video

I'll be there. It's down the street from where I'm staying. Mains and goals 3x3 main: not sure. Maybe YuXin little magic M. Maybe GTS when I get it and magnetize it. Maybe my Valk when I magnetize it. Goals: sub 25 average, sub 20 single 4x4 main: FeiTeng M Goals: sub 1:15 average, sub...

Well I'm not proposing getting anot her coin for each solve. Just the first time. yeah. Like Playstation online trophies. And you can also send off to have your physical coin mailed to you with proof electronically on your WCA profile.

Ha. Yeah medals for podium, but a coin for your first sub 10 solve in comp is something that I think people would like.
