This really isn't a fair poll...I can't decide, and therefore I won't vote...

Seeing how i only have a 3x3x3 it was a rather easy choice for me

 

[dougreed]

Yes, it was rather a tough choice for me, also... but in the end I chose 4x4x4, since that is what I have been telling people is my favorite out of the 2x2x2-5x5x5 cubes.

I agree, this is too tough of a decision! I like almost all of those.

i voted the 3x3
the next would be the rubiks clock's
then the magic

 

[Joël]

I would go for the 3x3...

Next would be megaminx and 5x5 (in that order).

 

[pjk]

3x3x3 for now.

 

[cubekid]

I like the 4x4x4 the most, mainly because it's more challenging than the 3x3x3. Though I guess if I did the 5x5x5 more, I would like it more.

 

[Scott]

I would like 4x4, if i knew how to speedsolve it. :s

 

[CraigBouchard]

Ok, I'm really confused now...Who is Richard??? I thot it was patterson but its definitely not...I'm not voting I'll hold out...

I voted for 3x3 though i really love the 4x4. i never tried the other puzzles because i dont know where to buy them.

also, i discovered a sudoku cube. its like a normal rubiks cube but instead of colors theres numbers. more complicated id say because you have to look at different numbers.

 

[grsbmd]

square 1

 

[krnballerzzz]

3x3= classic.

 

[mrCage]

Hi B)

Well, agreed that 3x3x3 is the classic, but the larger cubes are more interesting. I like odd sized cubes better than even sized cubes, cause i get less confused ( ) so the 5x5x5, professor cube, gets my vote. It may turn out i do like the olympicube 6x6x6 cube better though

My favorite is the 3x3. I have played with a 4 and I hate the parity errors. I have a 5x5 and I love solving it up to doing the final solve then I always get bored with how hard it is to do finger tricks. I just got a pyraminx and it was too easy. I'd like to get my hands on a square-1 or megaminx. If I had either, they may sway my opinion.

 

[Me]

If the clock was on there i would vote for that, otherwise its the 3x3

 

[deKeijzer]

I got a new puzzle last week, its called Peter`s Black Hole. I think that is the puzzle I enjoy most.
It`s not that challenging as a 5x5 but it is somethign you can solve using your mind rather then your memory.

I voted for the 4x4. I just cannot get over the fact that the parity of the edge pieces is completely independent of everything else on the cube. I mean it's like you have two puzzles melded into one, and even though one turn affects both puzzles (edges, and everything else), you can still treat it like two separate puzzles morphed together. Way cool to me, I can't get over that.

For anyone interested who has not seen this before, here is an alg to prove that the edges are not affected by any other piece on the cube: r2 B2 U2 l U2 r' U2 r U2 F2 r F2 l' B2 r2 R L U2 L' R' U' R L U2 L' R' U'

It swaps lUF and rUF and nothing else, even on a 4x4x4 supercube.
