Lots of places, mostly historical but also some sightseeing spots. I went to these caves with paintings of buddhas on them in Dunhuang (paintings were never repainted, 1300+years old, but you can still see the colors), and also the desert. Second was these mountains with lots of different colors on them that are made by different minerals, and there was also a canyon that I went down to the bottom of (that was really tiring)OMG you're finally back. Where did you visit?
Megaminx is a lot more fun and rewarding than 4x4. With megaminx the lookahead helps improve 3x3, whilst 4x4 isn't really similar to 3x3 other than solving the cube like a 3x3 in the end.I can probably convince my dad to buy me some cubes this summer, but I can only buy two (or maybe three if I argue with him a bit). Current puzzles I want:
MGC 4x4, MGC Elite 2x2, Yuhu Megaminx, and Tornado V3 if it comes out.
I can't really decide which two cubes I should get (or three).
I should definitely get the 2x2, because my 249m isn't magnetized, although I still get pretty good times with it. The reason I want the Tornado is Gan 12 locks up sometimes and is too loud. A lot of good cubers are also starting to use the Tornado.
For 4x4 and mega, I don't practice those a lot, but I think if I get the cubes I can improve a lot. Mega is currently some trash Qiyi cube with no magnets and locks up every other turn, same with 4x4, except its the black pieces with colored outlines from MFJS.
What do you guys think I should get?
In your opinion. In my opinion, 4x4 is more funMegaminx is a lot more fun and rewarding than 4x4
What do you average on 4x4?In your opinion. In my opinion, 4x4 is more fun
Around sub-1:13What do you average on 4x4?
Welp but I would still like a magnetic 2x2, maybe I'll argue with my dad to buy me 3 cubesDefinitely get the Megaminx and 4x4.

Both of them are equally fun for me. My only issue with 4x4 is that once you become sub 1, it becomes very repetitive. Megaminx on the other hand, is a much more different event. So every solve is different, making it nonrepetitive and there's a lot more freedom during the solve for efficiency. If you haven't picked up Megaminx, I highly recommend it.In your opinion. In my opinion, 4x4 is more fun
It's basically about practicing and having good cube. I dropped my times from 3 mins to around 1:20 just by practicing constantly.I have picked it up. I'm just slow still. My opinion might change later when I'm faster
I'm not the only one!!Around sub-1:13
Like @Abram Grimsley said, in your opinion. How fast you are at an event can majorly impact how fun it is for you. Also, big cube lookahead is very applicable to 3x3 lookahead lolMegaminx is a lot more fun and rewarding than 4x4. With megaminx the lookahead helps improve 3x3, whilst 4x4 isn't really similar to 3x3 other than solving the cube like a 3x3 in the end.
