Snaking Community

It has come to my realisation that there is no place for the snaking community (the speedsolving of the rubiks snake) because of this i made this forum to bring all snakers (A word i just made up) together to talk about our niche interest

Notation for snake
notation for Rubik's Snake. The pieces of the puzzle can be turned 90 degrees clockwise or counter-clockwise and 180 degrees either direction. For the notation, each piece from left to right is given a number from 1-24. A "+" sign after a number means to turn that numbered piece clockwise, "-" means counter-clockwise, and "x" means to turn that piece 180 degrees. If there is a sequence of numbers in order, the numbers after the first in the sequence can be omitted and only the "+", "-", and "x" modifiers written

Every Snake Method For Rectangle

James Straughan's speed solution for forming the ball shape:

2- 3- 4+ 6+ 7+ 5- 8- 9+ 11- 10- 12+ 14+ 15+ 13- 16- 17+ 19- 20+ 21- 18- 23+ 24- 22+

It has come to my realisation that there is no place for the snaking community (the speedsolving of the rubiks snake) because of this i made this forum to bring all snakers (A word i just made up) together to talk about our niche interest

my school has a store that we can buy stuff with these bucks that they give us for doing nice things (not using the bathroom during school hours no that is an actual one) and they have different ppl that sell the stuff. So basically every day I go into there and make a bet with someone that if I can solve it, I get it for free (its never failed) and I have like 20 of them in my house.

This solve is quite old (17th September)
But its still good around PB10 (at the time it was pb)
SOLVE the times were 2.48 and 2.40

i am interested in this, how hard is it to get into a ball?

really simple and intuitive for me

You mean during class, right?

I found another video of the rectangle solving style it seems to be by one person 5.24 “WR” single in 2020

So i think it’s just me and this guy (and he’s probably stopped) still solving in rectangle style

Maybe someone can help me with the “James Straughan's ball speedsolving method” if someone could make a video or break it down for without using notation since i cant really follow it well

We have the same thing in jmy svhool but its much rarer to obtain. I remember getting caught in a black market scheme just t get them.
To get the most cash possble, I wait until the hallway is empty after school, pick up random stuff, and giving it to the security gaurd.

Maybe this weekend I'll make a video for the execution.

How did a thread about the Rubik's Snake turn into a black market scheme to get rich in school? This thread is worse than my train of thought.
