Teenage cubers discussion

I realise I may be holding a fringe belief here but I never saw the point of the forums as getting as many likes as possible...

More about communicating with other people about something both enjoy and getting and giving help and tips or maybe occasionally investigating the mathematics of methods or just the cube in general.

I guess the whole "like" thing was added so people can show that they agree with what the person is saying, preventing people from replying with things like "+1" or "ya this". Also likes make posters feel better and gives them more credibility (members with more likes probably make good replies and are experienced and able to help/give advice).

It looks like your post got a few likes. I can't tell if they're liking it out of irony or if they genuinely agree with you.

anyway, I like the competitive aspect of cubing and trying to break records/win events, but I definitely also enjoy meeting new people.

Yeah, I guess the possibility of becoming world class would keep some of us going.
 
My favorite part of competitions is getting better times than I get at home (I got a sub 16 average when I averaged about 19):D

I hate it when people say "backslash" instead of "slash" or "forward slash" when reading URLs. CNN did it this morning and I'm still not over it. :p

Haha that's how I recognize 2 of the headlights CxLLs. It isn't too hard, anyone who knows a thing or two about math can tell you that slash has positive slope while back slash has negative slope.

I keep a session going for as long as possible. I've had a 2,500-solve 3x3 session over the course of a few weeks and a 1,000-solve 2x2 session over the course of a few days.

And yes, I do post a lot, bruh. I have no comeback for that.
