The Confession Thread

[Owen]

Maybe we should be confessing things.

an edge piece is the same thing as a wing piece.
Im not trying to be technical, but on a 4x4 its called a dedge meaning double edge, not dwing.

I only watched the VMA's last night for Justin Bieber. Dayumm.. He was so cute when he couldn't find the stairs to go up on stage. Not to mention I was screaming the whole time. Too far? I hope not.

I have flipped the edges countless times on a 4x4 because i was too lazy to do the oll parity algo.

You cant flip a 4x4 edge...

Algo, wow...

oh no, he tacked on the next letter after g in algorithm. How dare he.

That's why he put an s on the end of edge for pluralisation.
Meaning more than one edge. -.-'

still incorrect.

You can definately flip a dedge.

How so?
You can swap 2 4x4 edges... Which is what he did so he didn't have to do the alg for parity.

Swap != Flip.

-.-'

Would you mine extrapolating, as for one, that post is against the forum rules. And for two I see nothing wrong with my post.

why?

Ignore me if I'm wrong. But does this have anything to do with the current thread?

I confess that I like the smell of jigaloo. Or is that the smell of cancer?

Not too much of a difference there. I like the smell of petrol!

Now this gon' be the hardest thing I think I ever had to do
Got me talkin' to myself askin' how I'm gon' tell you
'bout that chick on part 1 I told ya'll I was creepin' with, creepin' with
Said she's 3 months pregnant and she's keepin' it
The first thing that came to mind was you
Second thing was how do I know if it's mine and is it true
Third thing was me wishin' that I never did what I did
How I ain't ready for no kid and bye bye to our relationship

These are my confessions.

You may now return to your regularly scheduled programming.

Just so we can get the argument of lazy cubers out of the way:

On larger cubes there are actually two types of edge pieces: midges and wings. A midge (short for 'middle edge') lies exactly in the middle of the edge, and can be flipped in place. A wing, however, is not symmetrical, and actually has only one orientation if you know where on the cube it is located. This means that if there are two (say) red-white wings on a cube, they cannot be interchanged without being flipped, and you cannot flip just one of them no matter what the rest of the cube looks like.

Next time some research instead of immature argument would be appreciated, especially when this thread is about confessions.

My confession: I highly admire Stefan and Thom for their persistent rudeness to stupidity.

I confess i hate some people on here.

What happened to the first part of your confession?

Don't worry about it, many of my friends are just like you.

I confess that I spend more time lurking these forums and cubing than I do on homework

About the 4x4x4 edge discussion: Am I the only one who thought he may just take out and flip the edges to avoid doing the OLL parity alg?

I confess that I dream too much about talking muffins.

That was exactly my point!

But he swapped the edges. If he flipped the two pieces in place...he couldn't assemble it again.

 

[ChrisBird]

Oh boy, I have a crap load of confessions. I'll do a few here, and post some more later.

Confessions:

Spoiler

- I am a complete douche when responding to comments/posts on the forums sometimes. I am trying to change this.
- Sometimes I have the false notion that I am better than some people because I do something they can't.
- I insult people a lot as a joke and have it come off as mean.
- I respond to way to many posts with short answers just to try and prove them wrong.
- I think some things will work out and work really hard to make it happen when really there is no chance.
- I insult myself a lot (and mean it) sometimes just to get attention, which I realize I don't really even want.
- I am overweight.
- I need to change how I respond to people on the forums and YT.
- I get an opinion of someone from one or two bad things then attach that to them forever without a chance of changing it.
- I am a hypocrite when it comes to the last thing I mentioned.
- I try to change myself a lot, and it only really works every once in a while.
- I have more confessions that I don't want to say at this point.

Wow. Quite a bit, Chris. I don't think you're really that bad about all those things. It's just the mean comments/posts that get to me.

I confess to being a complete noob when I came on SS.
Now, I'm only like 80% nub.

Also, I confess on creeping on everyone's facespaces.
But a lot of you already know that....

Yes, but by swapping them, he flipped them.
If I swapped two Yellow/Blue edges on my 4x4, ofcrouse they would be flipped.
Just because I never said I flipped them, doesn't mean they are not flipped.

On a 4x4, there is no such thing as orientation for individual edges, so saying that an edge is flipped just doesn't make sense.
