Any suggestions on my project...

[Birlibis1]

I"ve recently started working on a cube project. I am writing a 1500 words article about the cube and the whole thing that goes around it. My question is : is there anyone who would like to point out something for me that thinks that should certainly be on such a project. I know a lot about the cube so what I'm looking for is little specific details that would be a + for my project.

Don't talk about the cube to much, it gets boring. Talk about the community and experiences rather than the different methods.

Comms, FMC, Blindfolded, OH, and for sure the experiences and competitions.

Comms as in commutators? Because commutators are not something that a non-cuber would be able to understand by reading an article.

write about lolben. craft your whole essay around how stupid ben was, and how he still deserves being referenced and humiliated in fake videos completely unrelated to him.

Sarcastic?

I'd talk about the history of the cube, it's creation, peak in the early 80's, then resurgence from the 2002 world championships onwards.

The second worlds was in '03

If only I'd read a say 1500 word article on the cube, I'd have been much more knowledgable.

Compare the big methods, go over the records and the top cubers through time. Like Minh Thai then I'm not sure who 2003 and 2005 were but yu nakajima then vallence. throw in Faz is the favorite for worlds with year. Talk about you're cubing history.

You can talk about differrent metods, cubes and how much the 3x3 has evoled into different puzzles. I think talking about the speedcubing community would be great. Take a stroll around the speedsolving wiki for valuable info.

Kind of along with the community idea, you could discuss how it used to be a TV show. I think that is quite impressive for a puzzle.

Even though it was awful?

I think if you talk about the community aspect of it (even though the show was awful), talking about how there once WAS a show is pretty interesting. I also think that probably no one in the class would know about it.

Ok... Thanks. I'm surprised actually that none of you mentioned gods number! Anyway thanks again. I'm sorry but I can't post this article because it will be in Greek but maybe I will get down and have a translation for you.

+1
n write about types. 2x2 3x3 etc and stun people with that 17x17
edit: also records

Talk about the improvement of the WR, and the reasons behind it: like new methods, better cubes, etc. And maybe you could write something about your own improvement, what method you use. But make sure you don't explain it as if cubers would read it, they (your readers are non-cubers if I'm right???) should be able to understand, I guess.
