I don't mind on a 3x3, but on bigger cubes its a pain. Unless there is an algorithm then I HATE it.
Anyone here who actually hates scrambling the cube?

Well, I was a scrambler for the 3x3 finals (didn't get in 
) and for the 4x4 and 5x5 prelims and finals... We were joking about making the cubers actually scramble their own danged cubes...

I like trying to scramble as fast as I can. It really makes me concentrate. I don't know why I enjoy it so much. I just do.
Although, after the 150th scramble of the day, scrambling gets really old.

what I do when I don't feel like scrambling the cube:
do a sexy move (RUR'U') and ask a friend to try to solve it
perfect scramble

I hate it SO MUCH! But it's better than anyone else who scrambles by alg 
I hate when my brother or somebody wants to understand it and like does it for 30 min

I've gotten to read notation very fast. I've even used it to train one hand skills. It really helps with doing things from different angles to. I can read notation with the cube titled off 90 degrees in any direction. The moment I see B and F turns I make them U and D. R and L stay the same. The moment I see UD again I just rotate back. So yeah, I guess I like scrambling a little.

I always make a checkerboard pattern(See avatar)(M2 S2 E2) on my cube before hand scrambling... so no cross pieces are touching centers and no easy F2L pairs... then it takes me 15 seconds.

yeh scrambling is annoying, but i think mixing bigger cubes are funner, more different moves u can do to mix it, 3x3 and 2x2 are just the same moves though you can mix them up in like 10 seconds or less
i never tryed timeing myself, i would just put on a timer and turn it randomly for like 20seconds, that would ensure a good mix
yeh when my bro mixes my 3x3 he always gives me an easy cross (like 2/4 all ready down)
i always get a better time when he mixes lol

That is such an awesome analogy. Too bad I can't use it in Cali. I'll like turn into climbing up the diving board, or walking your bike up hill, or my semi-own analogy, the commercials on TV during the best show ever.

Yeah, whenever I scramble my cubes, I have this habit of making the scramble too easy. Then I have to close my eyes and re-scramble it.
It's kind of ironic though because before I could actually solve a Rubik's cube, I thought scrambling a cube for someone else was really fun. Now, it's like a chore.
