The One-Answer Question Thread [closed]

[koreancuber]

Ok, I didn't want to be criticized for making a thread, so I'll post it here.
So, today is my birthday, and I got $80, and I'm wondering what I should get.
First, I want to reserve 45 dollars for a $25 Haiyan Memory Cube (I promised Haiyan to buy it and $20 Cubesmith order. The last 35 dollars is the problem. I want a 4x4 and some good 3x3's, but I can't seem to decide where and what to get. Here are some of my ideas.
Mini QJ - 8.5 dollars (or something like that from popbuying.com)
or a Mefferts - $18, but I'm not sure because I've seen people liking the both the Mefferts (QJ) and the Mini QJ.
The JSK or the Edison cube (around $23).
I wanted to ask you fellow cubers about which ones I should or shouldn't get. Thanks and happy cubing <><!

My store.
Mini QJ.
A-II.

The Mini QJ is out of stock. (in your store)

I am restocking (hopefully) this week.

Oh, sorry, I'm ordering today or tomorrow.

i dont think the core makes a difference but the centre pieces do. the same way and edge or corner performs different depending on how it is maufactured

what is the difference between a crisp cube and a smooth cube

@mr. giggums: The feel.

what is the difference between a crisp cube and a smooth cube

Crispy: Turns rather easily, but may overturn easier. I crispy. Jig-a-loo helps with the crispy-ness.
Smooth: Turns very smooth, but is harder to turn than a crispy cube. My experience is that these are the result of cube+too much lube. Silicone helps smoothness.

If Feliks (hypothetical) were to tie 7.08 as the WR, would Erik stay as the WR holder, or would they both hold it together?

Probably both.

How long does it typically take to break in an ES 2x2? I'm starting to get annoyed by mine.

A long time. Force it to cut corners, it helps a lot.

Where can you buy a Rubik's keychain? I don't want to order it online, but rather get it from a toystore or something somewhere.

What effect does putting in C4U springs backwards have?

 

[Muesli]

Try it. It's not like you can't put it back.

I don't have it yet.

I was just hearing that for the CII4U hybrid it's better to have them backwards, and I was wondering why.
