I want you guys to help me design a new speedcube...

So, I know a lot about the fundamentals of a Rubik's cube, or at least enough to draw sketches of the inners of a cube. So, I have a couple of ideas, and I want you all to tell me in specific detail what the cube would look like, how it would twist, where to put the magnets, and other fundamental cubing things. You can only give me 1-4 ideas, and be creative. Once I choose at least 15 ideas, I will sketch a drawing based on those ideas. They'll be kind of like blueprints. I'll work as hard as I can to make it look as functional as possible. All I need is some ideas. I will give you all the sketch in about a week after I choose all of the ideas. I will follow whoever gets the most good ideas as a prize.

Merry Christmas (:
 
I'm going to add my own ideas here:
1. A 3x3 that turns like a skewb and a 3x3
2. Magnets in the center caps
3. 52 individual pieces
 
When I see two 3x3s together, one a Rubik's brand, and the other a GAN 13, I think that they're both cubes. One's a speed cube and the other isn't. They both have 26 pieces, they both have the same size, and they both have the same colors, and they both twist. whether or not it's a speedcube doesn't matter. So I'm so dearly sorry that I couldn't make it perfectly clear that it's a regular cube, but maybe you should use your pea sized brain a little harder next time.

Merry Christmas
ProStar makes posts that make 5 times more sense than this.

You get a non-pea-sized brain before you say someone else has a pea-sized brain.

I believe that ProStar means that there aren’t any speedsolving events which correlate to the ideas you provided. All they did was point out that you seem to be designing a new puzzle rather than explicitly creating a speed cube. There isn’t a need to make personal insults—it isn’t constructive.

Okay, let's restart. ProStar is no longer showed to me, so we can discuss without him interfering. If you don't believe he's a jerk, check my profile. It's all there.

That’s correct. All I was attempting to say is that a 3x3 with 52 pieces that turns like a skewb isn’t a 3x3 speedcube but instead a new puzzle. Designing a new puzzle can definitely be a cool exercise/idea, I was just pointing out that what they were designing wasn’t a 3x3

im not sure about a skewb that turns like a 3x3 but a skewb that turns like a skewb and a 2x2 does exist. search up Fangshi WonderZ 2x2 + Skewb. its on hk now store
