The "I quit / pause / return / change / etc." thread

[brododragon]

Umm it seems that we are just doing smiles

On a more serious note, I break most of my records right after breaks. Hope you can break a few!

 

[PetrusQuber]

Totally get it. Ive been into yoyoing before. its SO fun. What yoyo do you have and where did you buy it from?

Lets talk in a dm

@PetrusQuber would like to know your yoyo.

I was reading through one of these while I was taking a break, found an old toy yoyo and kind of got into it. I bought a Replay Pro unresponsive, and yeah.

I was lying the first time I posted on this thread. I am actually back this time.

Imagine if PetrusQuber, probably one of the most iconic cubing figures (well not cubing celebrities just someone really social on cubing platforms. So a cubing figure.) ever quit. That would serioulsly make me sad.

I've been taking a break for a while, checking this site every once in a while.

Now here's the point of the thread. I've been away for I think 9 months. So I'm kind of confused with the new things happening. What's a GAN monster? Has the new xman bell been released, and how does it compare to the original? Now there's a new YJ mgc?

Could someone fill me in on what's new?

Also have any records been changed?

 

[Zain_A24]

Also have any records been changed?

New SQ1 World Record (not sure when it was/how long ago it was)

Bell V2M is good and most say better than the V1 with it's new magnet adjustment features.

MGC Repulsion 3x3, a new 3x3 with repelling magnets at 45 degrees.

GAN have a series called Monster Go which is their training puzzles.

Also welcome back.

Other updates:
GAN have made a pyraminx and an upcoming skewb, as well as their 2020 flagship the 11M Pro which is very good.

MoYu made a WRM megaminx a while back with ridges (which defeats the purpose of WR)
They have also released some cool non wca puzzles, a WRM 2020 and RS3M 2020 which has been the best selling puzzle of 2020. They have also made a 4x4 and 2x2 to go with the RS 2020 line.

Qiyi have made a Shadow V2M 6x6, along with updating their "Qi" budget series from a while back. They also made an XMAN 2x2 with adjustable magnets releasing in a week or 2.

YuXin have worked on their Huanglong line making a flat 13x13, the biggest one without pillowing.

YJ are working on their MGc line as well as releasing a mini series known as the Zhilong series consisting of 3x3 to 5x5.

DaYan have released a Guhong v4m at 56mm light weight and low price.

I'll update this if I think of anything else.

GAN released a cheap line of "Monster Go" cubes intended for beginners. They have trainer cubes where you can practice things like the first layer and F2L. There are also two normal 3x3s, a non-magnetic and magnetic version.

Yes, the X-man bell v2 has been released, and it features adjustable magnets! I haven't seen many reviews, but people do seem to like it.

The YJ Repulsion is a cube where instead of the magnets attracting each other, they repel, causing them to push away.

There have been a bunch of online competitions, and I think Tymon Kolasinski broke the pyraminx average WR. However, it is not official. Feliks got a 3.33 (unofficial), and Max has also been getting 3s with the new Rubik smart cube.

I'm sure I forgot many things, but people can add to the list. Hope this helps!

There is now a mandatory rule that your pfp must have a santa hat on it (I’m kidding). Unfortunately, some members have died, including @brododragon and @ProStar @MJS Cubing although the last 2 are active now active now.
Edit:Nvm you can’t tag yourself...
Also some useful info: Qiyi clock is the first good clock, Gan is making a skewb, and a new Gan 3x3 came out and the Gan simps are going crazy.

Don’t forget the qiyi clock

I am planning to quit learning letter quads as I have made the entire list of 100k. I will focus more on getting fingertrickable 10.5 STM UF5 algs, and letter quads PAO. Letter quads will definitely help improve BLD memo. I started making up letter quads in 2017, and I am finally quitting it as I have completed it, R' u' F2 E R E2 R' F2 U R.

[BenChristman1]

Welcome back, I guess. This shouldn’t be a member intro, though, it should be in the I Pause/Return/whatever else it is Thread.

[goidlon]

Well I know a good amount of daily users look at my forum comp posts, that I never stick to it, just wanted to say it is the end of this crap. Edit: why are you guys all reacting with confused?

 

[cmhardw]

I haven’t posted in a long time, so I guess that means I’m back. I am still cubing regularly, as much as work and kids will allow at least. I’ve been mainly focusing on big cube BLD and 3x3, but I also still very much enjoy FMC. I miss going to competitions terribly and am excited for the next time I can compete. Hi to all reading this!

 

[carcass]

Hey, I know you as the first person to do 6BLD successfully! Welcome back!

 

[cmhardw]

Thanks! I’m happy to be back!
