I have a pyraminx crystal that I got from Mefferts a few years back. I love the puzzle, but I can't solve it because the pieces are coming loose to the point where they pop all the time. I've tried adjusting the screws, but they're either too tight or too loose.
Has anyone else had this...
Broke my 3x3 avg PB. Now it's 16.37.
Average: 16.37 sec.
Individual Times: 14.67, 17.70, 16.77, 14.02, (24.27), (13.20), 19.27, 14.13, 15.83, 15.77, 15.80, 19.72
Also set my 4x4 single PB, 1:17 :)
I'll blame it on Erik Johnson, but I'm back. And since Dan Cohen told me I live under a rock, I figure I'd ask. Are there any new puzzles out there I should know about? Any new craze or anything like that? It seems the world of cubing is always changing, so I figured it's time to get back and up...
I chose the sub 10 button. Does everyone know why Petrus isn't as fast as Fridrich yet? Because nobody has used it that would be good with it.
Take it this way: Anyone could learn to speak German, but for some people, it sortof just "clicks." It's the same way with cube methods.
Anyone can...
Yeah, I'm thinking about doing that. I still don't know what I want to do with the rest of my life, but I'm considering becoming a German teacher for highschool. The only problem is, I don't wanna work in some innner city, and I don't know how easy it would be to get a job as a German teacher.
In school I'm in German 3 class this semester, and next semester I'll have German 4. That means it's the end of the line for me and learning German.
So, I want to find a forum where I can still practice German. I know it won't be the same as speaking it, but writing it is still fun. I'm...
Dan, here's what I recommend doing. Go find other hobbies, some that require some athletic skill. Get a girlfriend. Go to school, then come how and go right to work, then come home and go to bed. Then cube again. You'll then realized how fortunate you are to be getting 15 second times.
It took me 26 solves to get a sub 20 rolling average. I think I need more free time to practice. Oh well, that's what school/work/girlfriend does to you.
Keep the competition away from holidays and I'm set. A competition in PA is exactly what I need, as long as it's not near a holiday (Allentown as on Fathers day... dad doesn't like driving me to go cube.)
Oh, and I'd really not like it to be on the 16th of any month :p
Nice Lucas, your 7x7 time is faster than my 6x6 PB :p
As for my accomplishment: I've been getting more and more 1:30ish 4x4 solves, yet when I take an average it ends up being crazy high...
Congrats to all the guys who just got sub 20!
And Dene, I believe I owe you a high five now, haha. Maybe I should try some 6x6 footsolving, then finally get sub 3 on 5x5...
