AsR-Asian, ER-European, NAR-North American, SAR-South American, OcR-Oceanic and AfR, for African.

But it is known and acknowledged that NZ is part of Australia.

What? No, it's not.

What are those choppy stickers on last layer on some cubes? Just asking..

 

[Graupel]

If I provide the wrong address to Lightake and they send it to a different address, what will happen to my package?
United States Postal Sevice (USPS) delivered it.

can anyone show me how to do this move quickly

x R2 D2 R U R' D2 R U' R

EDIT: I think im wrong here, is that for the setup or is that the alg.

A-perm? Check out this thread. In particular, check out the video in the 5th post (the one by Sa967St). That's how I do my A-perms now. (keep reading further down for the alg)

lolwut?
New Zealand
Australia

 

[xXzaKerXx]

Rare appearance by Faz in this thread. So that means NZ is not part of Australia, but is under Oceania?

 

[ahmedkl]

thanks for the reply jiggy i still haven't learned the full 2pll , and that move is i think from some beginner method :/

What should I practise on square 1?

Just did a breakdown solve on ctimer, a decent solve time for me, 45.53.

solve---step 1----- step 2----- step 3----- step 4----- step 5----- step 6----- total
--2-- --10.23------ 0.66------- 8.38------- 4.80------- 17.28------ 4.18------- 45.53

1 = cubeshape
2 = corner separation (skip)
3 = edge separation
4 = corner permutation
5 = edge permutation
6 = middle layer​

 

[Toad]

Ben, do an average of 12 (or more) across all the different steps then we might be able to help you. Not very useful giving the breakdown of a single solve especially considering it contained a skip.

Does Feliks ever do PLL time attacks?
If so, what can he get?
UWR I'd assume, but I never see his name w/ it.

 

[RyanReese09]

I don't know the answer but I think the UWR is sub30, like 29.xx something (it's the fastest one I've seen)

 

[That70sShowDude]

I thought Sajima/Breandan had like 27-28 not on video. (Sajima has 29.09 on vid)

Feliks' TPS is just absolutely insane, so I'd like to see what he is capable of getting.

EDIT: I just checked Sajima's video and he says his PB is 28.75 and is capable of sub-27.

 

[amostay2004]

I heard Feliks did a 29.xx PLL attack

 

[ben1996123]

Are you allowed to use umm... "illegal" (couldn't think of a better word...) moves on official clock solves? eg. if you put all of the pins right in the middle of being pushed up/down and turn any wheel, it moves every clock on both sides, if 2 adjacent are pushed half up/down and the other 2 are all the way down, and turn a half up/down wheel, it moves all of the clocks on both sides apart from 1 edge, so this would allow 2 move pure edge rotations.

 

[Mike Hughey]

You didn't use that to get your BLD times, did you?

As for your actual question, clearly it violates the spirit of the following rule:
3h) No modifications are allowed that enhance the basic concept of a puzzle. Some examples of enhancing the basic concept are: new moves are possible, normal moves are impossible, more pieces are visible, colours on the backside of the puzzle are visible, moves are done automatically, more or other solved states.

I'm not sure whether it violates the rule itself (as opposed to the spirit of the rule), though, since the rules don't define what normal moves are, and if the standard Rubik's Clock does those moves, one could try to argue they are normal moves.

Why does a modded square one and a mf8 square one look different?

u perm on megaminx?
