I've found that type C attributes vary according to colour.
(I've used many type C cubes.)

Thanks for the info. I've only used white and black type C's

Maybe.... Application?

yeah, put the sticky side onto the backs of the stickers and peel them off, then put them onto the cube and press, then pull it off fast

Before a solve, are you allowed to do a 44 degree turn on one of the sides?

In the regulations it says that no moves can be applied during inspection. However, less than 45 degrees is not considered a move at the end of the solve, so it's still solved. In theory, shouldn't a less than 45 degree turn still be that scrambled state?

Sounds to me like you can, but that would be a pretty BS move.

Why? If someone stoped the timer with a slightly less than 45 degree turn, would you hold that against them?

But what you are considering, looks like cheating.

I would probably never do this in a real solve. But technically, I've left the cube in the exact same position.

EDIT:

•A3c2) If the pieces of the puzzle are not fully aligned, then the competitor may fix it, only to align the faces (for cubes the alignment must not exceed 45 degrees).

Can someone link me to a white DaYan on Popbuying?

Are there any java scramblers for clock out there that can work on mobile phones??

Do Type F II's usually have to be tightened?

I ask becuase I just opened up the box and it is really loose and pops a lot. Maybe I'm just used to a tighter cube?

Mine came at a perfect tension by i was an idiot and loosened it and now mine pops.

 

[miniGOINGS]

I tightened mine a wee bit.

Yes. miniQJ's are the same size as EastSheen.

Try to take advantage of the current state of the cube. For example, in choosing an outer square for your first square, there are 24 different possible squares you could choose from. Pick one that is already partially (or fully) built. For the second square, it is usually best to build the adjacent inner square with matching colours. This will give you 9 possible squares to choose from for building the third square.

Of the 9 possible third squares, 3 match in colour, while 6 do not match. There is not much difference between choosing a matching or non-matching one, so again pick whichever square is closest to being fully built. If you pick one of the squares with matching colours, you will have 4 squares to choose from for the fourth square.

What does Ryan mean by matching colours when he talks about the inner 1x2x2?
