Do you know someone who has solved the 3x3 cube without the guides? I understand that there are people out there that have done this, but do you have to be a genius to do it? (I ask b/c a kid at school comes in everyday claiming he's currently doing it, I'm gonna try to recognize some of the algs)

I did. It took about a month though, and I regret doing it. It's so much easier to learn algs. I used Keyhole F2L and stupidly long commutators for the LL.

Can anyone reccomend me a dowloadable timer that stores all of your times, best resuts/averages, number of solves etc? I dowloaded Prisma timer and i like it alot except that everytime i restart the program, all my results dissapear. I wanna keep track of number of solves i do, and progress in my averages etc :)

I know it is suspossed to be like that. But unfortunately it isnt. Everything Dissapears, even in history.

Is there a puzzletimer.h2.db in the same folder as Prisma? Is there anything that could stop it from being saved in the same folder? If you have that file, you could send it to me and I can see if I see anything wrong with it.

Are sites such as lightake or wallbuys reputable or trustworthy? In the past I've bought from thecubicle. Many cubers seem to use these Chinese stores, but I feel uncomfortable giving them a credit card. Are these stores safe.

Thanks

Thanks for the answers, how long does the shipping usually take to U.S. from lightake?

Trustworthy, yes. Fast? No. My last order from Lightake took 8 weeks. Will not order from them again haha. The extra 1-2 dollars from another store is worth the speed in my opinion.
