Lol this aged well (from gsingh’s progression thread in April)Lying is a tricky subject to deal with,
Are you sure??I mean, he didn't fake times...
First of all, I didn't just loose memory in cubing. I didn't know anyone or anything. I mean, I could still walk and talk and eat. I just... was an empty shell.That's what he was talking about. I don't think it's very common that a bump on your head results in very specific memory loss. If it were true, why would he only lose memories regarding cubing? That doesn't make sense at all.
I don't think that is how amnesia works. My memory of the past is better now, although some things are still fuzzy. Like where I am from. No one wants to tell me that.Anyway, if he had memory loss he would have forgot how to type anyway
Don't worry. I haven't been banned. Only have been really busy.There is a chance he was trolling, but he doesn’t seem to be banned as there is still ‘Member’ displayed under his name rather than ‘banned’. He was also last seen yesterday so he’s not going anywhere
yh, the only reason I would have ‘fallen’ for it would be because I didn’t want to come across as an insensitive brat
I also noticed that, when I went back to reread my successes/progression in cubing. However, I promise you that I truly did suffer amnesia, whether you would like to believe it or not.This is certainly a strange situation...
Garf does seem to like the idea of "restarting" in some way, for example, the first post in this thread is this:
Perhaps he wanted a reason to go back and break some bad habits, but using memory loss (and a suspiciously specific type) as an excuse is definitely not a very good idea, and made some people understandably concerned for his health.
If this is in fact real (which I am certainly heavily doubting), then it makes sense, but it doesn't seem that way; and playing with peoples' feelings like that is just not ok.
In any case, the lack of clarity on the reality of the situation means that the mods took the right action in banning him for now. I'm hoping this isn't a lie, but I don't have high hopes...
Hmmm... What about school? Are you just going to be homeschooled, or do you go to school and fail every class? Or do you magically remember everything from school?First of all, I didn't just loose memory in cubing. I didn't know anyone or anything. I mean, I could still walk and talk and eat. I just... was an empty shell.
But I have had more time remembering stuff about my life than cubing, so it may seem that way, but I assure you, I lost my memory about everyone and who I am.
I feel like the whole thing is a joke by this statement. You certainly do seem like you have been banned, your last post from exactly 2 weeks ago.Don't worry. I haven't been banned. Only have been really busy.
Uh, I am going to in-person school. And I have been cubing a bit, and I remember how to use each algorithm.Hmmm... What about school? Are you just going to be homeschooled, or do you go to school and fail every class? Or do you magically remember everything from school?
For your information, here are the symptoms of amnesia:
You will have difficulty learning new information (anterograde), and you have difficulty remembering past events and previously familar information (retrograde).
It seems like you're learning new info pretty fast, so I'd say you probably have retrograde amnesia.
" People with amnesia usually can understand written and spoken words and can learn skills such as bike riding or piano playing."
Okay, so you still might know how to cube because cubing was a pretty big part of your life. What about the things you learned at school? Your parents names? Any random object around you, do you still know what they're called? How do you know the objects on your table are called cubes?? What if they're called spheres? How do you know you're actually supposed to solve them, not break them apart?
According to this website, cubing should be part of your ingrained memory. You've memorized hundreds of algorithms into your muscle memory and was really familiar with them. So relearning them should be no big deal. If you can learn stuff pretty fast, then again, the other type of amnesia is erasing memories of your everyday life. How do you still know how to use a laptop?? Bike riding is considered "second nature", according to this website. How do you know what the buttons in front of you are for, what the buttons on the thing that's called a "mouse" are for? Damn, how do you even know who your siblings/cousins are, who that person with long hair who is tending to that poor big bump on your head is? If it was me I would be pretty scared of waking up to a bunch of strangers touching my head.
"It can be pretty distressing to have a family member go through a period of amnesia. This person may forget who you are, who they are, or even your shared past. The first thing you can do to help your loved one and yourself is to come to terms with the situation."
I feel like the whole thing is a joke by this statement. You certainly do seem like you have been banned, your last post from exactly 2 weeks ago.
Again, as IsThatA4x4 said, playing with other people's feelings is not okay. You've got some people actually believing you and feeling sympathetic for you but it's all just a big sadistic joke.
Man, you're 15 now right? Joking about amnesia is wrong and mean to the people who actually have the sickness.

Dude. School started yesterday. I was online sometimes because I didn't have total access to my chromebook. Why don't you believe me that I wasn't banned?There are quite a few pieces of evidence that points otherwise.
Just drop the act already before you get banned for a longer time, please.
- Your last post was from exactly 2 weeks ago.
- You said you didn't have time to come onto SS, yet during that period of time I have seen you online multiple times.
- During those 2 weeks you were not on here it only showed "last seen yesterday at 11:37 am", which is what it would show if you were banned and didn't check the box "Show your current activity". And I know for a fact you didn't, at least before when you didn't "lose" your memory.
- If you weren't banned, why are you online everday now when you still have school?
Is not Latin America just South America plus all NA countries minus USA, Canada, and México? I don't know why you would memorize some twice.Okay, so in my world studies class I have to know all the countries in the world. So starting today I am learning them all through seterra geoguesser. I already know all of Europe, and am almost done with Asia. I heard Africa is hard so I will conquer that next. Then after Africa I will do South America, the Australia, then North America and Latin America.
I remember 197/197ing the sporcle quiz a few years backImagine not knowing them all at age 7.

I don't use redux, but I am pretty good at redux for 5x5. I'll tell you what I know later.Okay, so I am getting a lot of sub-4 solves on 7x7. I have pretty much given up on megaminx for right now. I know this may be a shocker for all of you, but ever since I lost my memory, I didn't find megaminx all that appealing to me.
So now, I am focusing on big cubes (5x5, 6x6, 7x7). @gsingh, tips for those events would be appreciated.
