What's the easiest to learn from BLD tutorial to learn from? I'm having a lot of difficulty trying to learn BLD for 3x3...

 

[Julian]

Easiest? I'd say badmephisto. Once you learn his execution method, go to the memory methods thread and pick a memorization method.

question to those who have a dayan guhong and also to those who have a lubix guhong

How regularly do you lube them,both cubes?

 

[RyanReese09]

Lubix is high viscosity so it doesn't need to be reapplied often at all.

I've had a lubix ultimate guhong (well, had, sold yesterday) for over 4 months and I didn't lube it once

Thanx,and why did u sell such a great cube? u didn't like it?

 

[EricReese]

He had another one (an Elite to be specific)

I had no need for it. Someone else wanted it. I'd only use it for multi, but it was more on the quiet side and I'd prefer a slightly clicky cube that way if I slip I can know if I did like R or R2 by the noise it made.

I got an A-V a while ago and did the haiyan mod to it, lubed it (silicone spray) and had been using it for the last week, but its anti-popping capabilities were awful, so today I finally took the time to adjust the tensions in it so it still had some decent corner cutting, and still have a pop in almost a fifth part of the triggers I do in my solves since 5 hours ago, so what do I should do?

A piece of my GuHong corner broke off. Is there a place I could buy a replacement corner, or do I need to buy a new cube?

 

[xdaragon]

My question is in a competition if you had a pop of 3+ pieces would you rather DNF or assemble and keep going? and Why?

 

[cuberkid10]

It would depend on your average so far. If it's your worse solve already, might as well finish, becuase it would be dropped.

I'd personally DNF it, beucase you risk putting a piece in backwards and losing more time.

Mine almost never pops as it is. Either tighten it some more and deal with it or adjust your turning style.

Are there any good tutorials for 7x7 last two centers and last four edges? Right now I'm intuitively permuting as many center cubies I can and then using the commutator in lancetheblueknight's tutorial. For the last four edges I do the inner edges first and solve parity if I have it then I do the outer edges and apply parity if I have to.

Edit: Also, any mods to improve anything would be welcome. The only one that I know about is the adjustable core mod.

Anyone?

 

[freshcuber]

I'm assuming you mean Dan Cohen.

 

[EricReese]

He made more white text -_- Obvious this time with the parenthesis but still. ALso all you had to do was look at the youtube account name which is Dan Cohens.

I didn't really understand the need for white text in that post..

what is the best square 1 method and tutorial?

 

[HavoCentral]

what is the best square 1 method and tutorial?

for begginers,I would say scroux.
For intermediate, LBL with 2LPLL, 3 algs total.
For advance, I would say LBL with full PLL.

I Use the intermediate one. Its really simple, just the bottom layer has a lot of intuitiveness to it.

Scroux, is basically roux for the sq-1. You solve the bottom 1x3 blocks, then place the edges, then solve the top layer.
I started with it, but realized it would be faster to just solve the edges at the same time.

 

[sa11297]

i dont know how to solve it but i have been able get it in a cube shape with 2 completed layers. which tutorial should i use?

I'm on my iPod so if there's a video I can't see it right now. I saw the white text again though. I check most of his posts now. It's really obnoxious
