Is this cube any fun at all? (square 1?)

[Mike Hughey]

You can do it. You'll have to figure out some algorithms of some sort to do it, but you should be able to play with it for a while and figure them out. It's a fun puzzle to work out the first time. If I remember right, it took me a couple of weeks to finally get it (it was especially rough finding a parity algorithm). Some people on the forum here figured it out much quicker than I did.

When I finally found a parity algorithm that worked, it was something like 80 moves. Needless to say, that was the first thing I found a replacement for when I started trying to speedsolve it.

Oh, cool. I'll definitely give it a whirl on my own then when I get one(hopefully soon). I was planning on just buying and transforming it into a cube(after scrambling) then just logging on to Vandenbergh's site to do the rest, lol.

You might want to also consider Jason Baum's site, when you do decide to go look up algorithms (after you conquer it yourself). He has a new method with fewer algorithms that looks very promising.

Really, I did not realize he had a method for it too. I'll be sure to check it out, thanks!
