I think it's because it's a stupid thread and he wants it to get closed. That's my guess.

I only wish I knew.

Do they have algs written out for COLL+MGLS somewhere? Sort of like EJF2L, but it fixes an F2L corner orientation and does the COLL?

I think so as well. I thought that the point of the story threads and the cubing word association threads was to be funny but I didn't find them funny at all...

COLL: http://www.cubewhiz.com/coll.html
MGLS: http://cube.garron.us/MGLS/

That's separate, I don't know what you mean by together. If you do MGLS, you have OLL done, so all you need is PLL. Or do you mean doing them in one step, meaning OLL+CPLL together? That would be a lot of algs.

What should I get?

I was learning towards the 2x2, but only because I was going to use it for a competition. But my mom already signed me up without it.

So now i kinda want a new 3x3, my store-bought rocks, and never pops, but I want a new one anyway.

Also, I chose the cheapest Cube4You cube because I only have about 10 dollars to spend.

My (Rubik's) 4x4 is a good substitute for a 2x2, so I don't mind waiting for a 2x2.

Should I get the Eastsheen 2x2 or the Cube4You 3x3?

Is silicone oil flammable?

Yes, it is.

Is silicone oil flammable?

Yes, it is.

Darn. I wanted to take some on a plane but that won't be happening.

 

[StachuK1992]

just take it in your hand luggage

 

[Ellis]

just take it in your hand luggage

And make sure it's less than 3 ounces of course. And that you don't have anything that's over 3 ounces at all, because then they'll look through your bag and probably throw away any small containers of flammable oils that you have :rolleyes:

Otherwise you should be fine.

Does the type e (Dian Sheng) have adjustable screws?

Does the type e (Dian Sheng) have adjustable screws?

Yes, along with removable center caps.

hmm...
I just got a CY4 cube, and I'm a bit disappointed with it.
I've been playing around with the tension, but maybe it's just not my style.

Where is the question???

 

[Lord Voldemort]

I was just responding to the answer to my previous question.
Though I now realize that this C4Y cube is AMAZING.

A question. How many possible cases are there for full corner orientation? Like, orienting all the corners on a cube.

ES 2x2 in my opinion. Then do the screw-spring mod on it and lube it with Food Grade CRC silicone.

EDIT: @soccerking, there are two cases in Fridrich that orient all four corners in the top layer, if that's what you meant. If you meant ALL corners, I would assume there would be six cases, but I'm not sure.

A question. How many possible cases are there for full corner orientation? Like, orienting all the corners on a cube.

3^7 = 2,187 CO possible cases

If you don't understand the 3^7 (you should) read below:

A corner has three possible orientations, hence the three. There are 8 corners, each with 3 possible orientations, so we have

3^8

But because of restrictions, we have to divide by three, so

(3^8) / 3

which simplifies to

3^7 or 2,187

@soccerking, there are two cases in Fridrich that orient all four corners in the top layer, if that's what you meant. If you meant ALL corners, I would assume there would be six cases, but I'm not sure.

6 cases for all corners? Where do you get that number from?

 

[soccerking813]

Ok. 2,187>the amount I want to learn at this moment.

Wait, but you could decrease that number be a lot if you use a single setup move, like D, D' or D2.
