Or I could name them after Sonic the Hedgehog characters. Black = Shadows, Blue = Sonic, Red = Knuckles, Yellow = Miles/Tails, White = Silver.

Any other ideas of naming?

Elements?or power rangers?

Black=Darkrai
Blue=Suicune

White=Arceus
Orange=Charizard

Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers. Red = Aurico, White = Delphine, Blue = Cestro, Yellow = Tideus, Black = Corcus. Perfect.

I thought about that. I would probably just do all of the legendaries from 1st gen. The 3 Birds as their colours, Mew as White, and Mewtwo as Black.

I'm going to my first competition in a few weeks..

Is there something you would recommend I take [other than my cubes, of course]?? Also, is there anything about competitions that I should know about before going to one?

A screwdriver.

At least one person will need one.

How can I stop the screws on my East Sheen 4x4 from coming loose?

What happened to Paul Wagner?

He sold a lot of his cubes, quit cubing, and quit the forums.

Unscrew it, put super glue in the axis hole, and QUICKLY screw it back in.

Or get a MINI QJ 4x4x4!!

What happened to speedsolving.com t-shirts?

Did the idea just fail?

When doing the first 3BLD of this week's competition (U2 L2 R2 U F2 D2 B2 U2 R2 B' R D2 U2 R2 B R2 F' U L' B R) using old Pochmann edges and cube oriented Yellow on U, Orange on F, I see my first edge to solve in the buffer position (UR) is flipped. I tried to flip as a single edge cycle but it flipped the second piece (at UL)! Should I have ignored its orientation and started with another piece hoping that (or rather "safe in the knowledge that") the flip would correct itself?

This is what I would do in that position:
start the cycle as UL is the first and then when you get UL/LU again then the buffer gets solved. I just remember that.

i have two questions, but they can be easily answered, so i think it fits here.

1.) is there a commutator that can swap to opposite corners, without affecting edges? if so, what is it?

2.) how many mini cubes are there, excluding keychain ones.
and naming the types would be nice.

1. No such algorithm exists for a normal 3x3.

Not possibly, and I'll check the Wiki.

Mini Maru, Mini DS, Mini A, Micro A, miniC, miniQJ if you count 4x4.
