Well, the title of this thread is not entirely helpful for the purpose of the thread...

Hey everyone, so now we have 3,700+ votes, and are the most voted topic!! We are very close to becoming a category, but for that to happen we need to submit as many questions as we can to prove that there are lots of good questions for this category. I have made a document in google drive: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...FiM1RnMUk4a3I3VTJpZERhMHc&usp=drive_web#gid=0

Some of these questions are flawed and I need to edit them, feel free to leave your questions with 1 correct and 3 wrong answers in your posts. I'll update this regularly as we get more questions. We need 100+ questions for this to become a category!
 
"What 3x3x3 solving method can be abbreviated to CFOP" - change to "What is an alternate name for CFOP" or "What 3x3x3 solving method is also known as CFOP".
"Who has the most official sub 5 solves" - you mean sub 6?
"Who invented the CFOP method" - Fridrich is wrong, she just popularized it with her website. Its unclear who invented it, but Hans Dockhorn and Anneke Treep were probably the first to publish it with full OLL/PLL.
"Where was the first ever cubing competition" - it's really hard to get info about competitions in the 80s, but there were definitely many competitions other than the 1982 World's. In fact, everyone at that competition had won a smaller national competition to qualify. So yeah, unless you are very knowledgeable about cubing in the 80s, avoid questions about it.

Thanks for that great info, all of those questions were written by my friend except for the sub 6 ones which I wrote. So most of those aren't great questions, this was just a rough draft anyway. And yeah I meant sub 6 not 5.

Apparently the topic was declined. I'm willing to bet that it's because the admin don't know enough about the topic.
