Anyone have a scramble that has no parity for blindfold? I use yellow top orange front

this is what I asked here, months ago, and also in the chat room. Kirjava and Joey both agreed that it is not the correct thing to do. just do solves including parity/breaking into new cycles until you get it. you just have to memorize a little more.

I know that and I don't intend to do this more then once, I merely to test my new memo method on a fairly easy scramble

i've found many scrambles with nonew edge cycle needed, though I need one with no corner as well

I want to connect my stackmat timer to my computer. What jack do I use, where can I get it, etc.

Im trying to learn 3op corners but cannot seem to find a tutorial that explains it well enough, so I created my own?
For memorization I have tapping the orientation of corners, but how would you memorize the permutation, since you solve 2 pieces at a time? how would you perform the 3 cycles, such as setup moves?

You can't. There are no screws in a Rubik's brand, if that's what you're talking about.

If it's a store bought, don't bother. They don't have screws.

Edit: Ninja'd

Yes, just take off the center caps and tighten/loosen the screw.

 

[HavoCentral]

yes you can on a guhong.
To the extent of my knowlede only store boughts cant be tensioned.

But a rubiks can be loosed, by stretching.
Pestvic has a tutorial on youtube on how to break in a rubiks brand cube.


i have been trying to find a path for PLL attack that ends in a solved cube, but have came up dry.

Is there one?
preferably with no AUF.

 

[Rpotts]

yea, there is. but who cares? why does it matter?

 

[ilikecubing]

Yes, just take off the center caps and tighten/loosen the screw.

should i break centers of all the six sides

 

[Eminem]

What would be the best "speed cube" for a person to get after a storebought. I recently started looking into getting one, but I thought I should have learned the 2look OLLPLL first. And I'm getting there. any help would be much apperciated.

 

[JackJ]

What ever your preference. Some like the f2, some like alpha 5. Recently the Guhong has been popular.

 

[ilikecubing]

@Eminem

try learning full PLL(21 algs) and for now use 2 look OLL,then gradually shift to full OLL(57 algs) learn them slowly

There are many cubes like f2,haiyan memory,edison etc etc but i would suggest u dayan guhong,u can search for it at lightake.com,best of luck

 

[Eminem]

thank you both, My bday is coming up dec 1st. and i think ill try a Guhong. Would

 

[Andrew Ricci]

No centers need to be broken. Just take off the caps.
