Alright, I just got some mystery puzzles I ordered on Friday, really happy with almost everything I got.

I ordered 1 $3 mystery puzzle and to $5 mystery puzzles. I was hoping for something good, WCA or non-WCA and I got my wish.

So the first thing I took out was the $3. It was this garbage 3x3 in an opened box.

MFJS MF3 3X3 is what it was when I looked it up.​


So that was disappointing, really. Plus I already had that cube.

Then, I took out a $5 mystery puzzle. It was a pyraminx. More specifically it was a GOOD pyraminx.
It was the

YJ YULONG PYRAMINX V2 M, which is evidently very good.​


Alright, so 1/2 puzzles were good immediately. I was hoping for a non-WCA puzzle to finish it off, but I got something better.

It was the RS3M 2020. It may be my new main here sometime.


So basically it was an early Christmas. Also, I'm going to be doing an average of 250 with the RS3M, and the X-man Tornado V2. Whichever is faster will be my main. EDIT: Only doing 100 solves now.

Also, @TheEpicCuber, it's not that my family doesn't have money, it's just that I don't know how to save it. :p

Nice! I personally don't order mystery puzzles because of the risk but it seems like you got great cubes. The rs3 was my main for 11 months, and its a great puzzle and is really stable.

Just checked out where that would put me in the world. My single is tied with Tymon's for 114th in the world. My average would put me at 638th in the world. Going for the top 100 soon.
Whoa nice setup

I didn’t mention anything about your family. I was just saying in general, but alright. Nice claims.

Alright, so lately, youtube has really convicted me to finish learning Sarah's Advanced for skewb. What I mean I this video has been showing up NUMBER 1 on my recommended tab.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO:
I am going to learn all of Sarah's Advanced [U]BEFORE[/U] Monday this week. It sounds like a challenge, but I have all the 2 sledge cases down. Basically, I want to learn WHAT to do. It doesn't have to be perfect, instant recognition into the alg. I just want to remember how to do it so I can train it.

Speaking of a Skewb alg trainer, I will be making one, it will be krap, and it will be a desktop application, but I'll leave it on GitHub if anyone is interested in it.

Since mine will look like garbage, I was wondering if someone would like to make a good skewb web-based trainer, since one does not currently exist, for some reason.

Also, I'm probably gonna watch that video on procrastinating.
