The Toronto Star (newspaper) had an article about Cubeworks. Most of it was about Eric Limeback (he was interviewed) and it was a TERRIBLE article. Most of the things he said were misquoted and the reporter made up a lot things and completely misinterpreted almost everything she heard.

The reporter failed. There's only TWO of us. Idfk how she somehow heard 25.haha, lol
I read that. I could use a job like that. Those lucky 25 people D:

The guy running the business wanted "fast cubers" with lots of knowledge behind the cube since the previous guy who was doing the pieces was extremely slow (~3 mins to sovle iirc) and he would take months just do to what we could do in a few hours. Like I said, the reporter was lmao so she threw in random stuff when she was just supposed to write about the artwork.Can someone explain why they need a speedcuber in that team?
I mean, I don't see what speedsolving has anything to do with making an art project, even if it is made of Rubik's Cubes...
I might be missing something.
Boy meets cube. Girl sees cube. Boy gets girl.
that's what she thought tooBoy meets cube. Girl sees cube. Boy gets girl.

Besides flying fingertips, the teenager’s speed is rooted in mathematical brilliance.
Damn, sounds like a plan....Boy meets cube. Girl sees cube. Boy gets girl.

I hate this line. This should be in the "non-cubers say the darndest things" thread.

People probably believe this because they think we "found the solution" ourselves. :fp

When I read that second sentence I was like :fp but then I think I got what they failed to try to say.An algorithm is a set of rules for solving a problem in a finite number of steps. Limeback has memorized about 150 to solve the original 3 x 3 cube in as few as six turns or as many as 16. He completes a “normal solve” in about 60 turns — about six twists per second.
He told me that he said that the length of the algorithms he knows vary from 6 moves to 16 (the FRUR'U'F' OLL and it's inverse are both 6 moves, and the E Perm he uses is 16 moves). I can't emphasize how much the reporter failed.Read that one paragraph
