How many of you have tried a Platypus?
I am auctioning mine off right now on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/-/252385769322
This is a very rare puzzle, and it took me a long time to get ahold of one. I not only got a platypus, but I got one of the originals.
I do not know of a single place where...

I got this average in the second round at Caltech Spring 2012. I had a 11.33 avg in the first round and I won the final round with an avg of 11.12. I had one sub-10 single in each average (9.22, 9.63, 9.86). I seem to be improving quickly, since I dropped a second of my times since my last comp...

Yep, Yumu's fast, but there are others who could beat this. But great job Yumu Tabuchi! Good luck at Worlds tomorrow!
I noticed that a lot been complaining that the DaYan + Mf8 4x4s are too big for their liking. And people were speculating when the mini version would come out. Well they're out now on 51morefun.com!

This race has the same rules as the other races. For each round there will...
