This sort of came as a spin off of the natural talent vs practise thread but I was just wondering what generation would people consider themselves? First? Second? First "revival" generation after the slump in the 1990s-early 2000s? Something altogether different?
I would be interested to hear peoples opinions on the topic.
I'm gonna stick my neck out and and say that we're mostly third/fourth generation: initial early 2000s revival/ the competitive generation after that. (First would be the first cubers- includes people like Rubik himself, petrus and similar, second could be the "lost " generation of the 1990s where cubing seemed to have died down-could include people like Fridirch). Note that your generation does not necessarily reflect your age.
What are other people's thoughts?
I would also be interested to hear your thoughts on the "fifth" generation and what charicteristics define each generation.
