Rubik's Cube Quiz

Teraminx number of stickers is easy...

p=number of corners per face
q=number of faces
o=order of the puzzle
a%b=remainder of a/b

(sum(2*i-1+o%2;i=1..floor(o/2))*p+o%2)*q=number of sticker on any face-turning platonic solid :p

for teraminx:
p=5
q=12
o=7

(sum(2*i-1+o%2;i=1..floor(o/2))*p+o%2)*q
=(sum(2*i-1+7%2;i=1..floor(7/2)=3)*5+7%2)*12
= (((2*1-1+1)+(2*2-1+1)+(2*3-1+1))*5+1
=((6+4+2)*5+1)*12 (This is actually here you should have started when you saw the question, the above is just a generalization for all platonic solids for the lolz :D)
=(12*5+1)*12
=60*12+12
=720+12=732...

Stop whining, how hard was that?

...
I think I prefer counting them one by one...

According to this score I assume that probably you can solve 2 Rubik's Cubes blindfolded at the same time :)

Nope :fp

According to this score I assume that probably you can solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded without inspection. Superhero level.

WTF...?

That's a very good one :tu I added this explication to the quiz.
I also made sticker counter calculator using this formula: http://ruwix.com/the-rubiks-cube/twisty-puzzle-sticker-calculator/
