The One-Answer Question Thread [closed]

My Zhanchi centre caps always fall off when i'm in the middle of a solve. It's really annoying when im doing algs like h-perm, what a way to fix this without anything sticky?

Is it just me, or is this question asked too much? Take the cap off, put a square piece of paper that's barely larger than the center on the center piece, and replace the cap.

Noob question: What is the proper way to hold a pyraminx when you start to scramble it using random generated scrambles? Like for a 3x3 its white on top and green on front. Just got one today and I am learning to solve it.

There's no official scrambling orientation. I hold mine with yellow on F and blue on D. In the WCA scrambling program, the pyraminx is shown with red on F and blue on D.

Before the torpedoes came out many people replaced their Lingyun core with a different core. Is this still needed/recommended or do the torpedoes take care of the popping problems? If replacing the core is a good idea; Cube4You core or Alpha I core??

If you are to make an account on Speedcubeshop, icubemart, and/or cubedepot do I have to be a webs.com user?
Please be sure of your response. Thanks.

That would depend on what you mean by "webs.com user". Webs.com defines "user" as a "visitor", "member", or "website creator", and defines "member" as having a registered account on a Webs.com website, which SCS, ICM, and CD are all part of. Technically, yes, you would be a Webs.com user.

So I have to be involved with webs.com?

Would it be best for me to learn all the OLLs as sune as possible? Or should I wait?

very punny my friend. Its personal preference. Most likely you will have to learn them eventually, so you might as well start now assuming you already know full PLL

Any tips for memorizing 2 Look PLL?

Do I have to be involved (in any way) with webs.com (do I have to have an account or something, do I have to pay extra etc.) to order from ICM,CD, or SCS?

@geekygeek repetition.

No. Webs is not involved with anything concerning the stores in any way, other than hosting the website itself, which doesn't affect you at all.

You do not have to have a Webs.com account.

If you have a webs.com account, that is only for participating on the forums.

On 3x3 for Jflysim, what are the basic controls for using it like R U' etc?

 

[BC1997]

Thankyou all!!!!!!!!!!!

How should I go about lubing my SS 4x4 with Izo Lube?

i would lube the core, and assemble untill you have one wing edge left, and put a little drop into the edge hole, put the edge, and work it in.

Is there a way I can get my Rubik's Clock pins to be tighter? They fall down during solves and cause me to lose time. It's a cubetwist clock.

try overlubing the pins. it may feel a little sluggish, but they won't fall.

Any tips for memorizing 2 Look PLL?

do the algorithm you want to memorize repeatedly untill it is stuck in your head. then do the algorithim on the cube every one hour so you don't forget it. do it right before bed and in the morning. hopefully you won't forget the algorithm.

J/F - U
G/H - F
E/D - L
I/K - R
S/L - D
W/O - B
y/n - x
a/; - y
p/q - z

shift + key = 2-layer turn
