Lone goose is the same as the guhong. V II is the most recent one.

Question bumped: where can i get custom logos besides cubesmith and oliver' shop?

Another question: How many algs are there for full OLL and PLL for the Megaminx. Also, how many algs are there for EO of Square-1?

 

[Datak]

so they are the same plastic?

 

[Michael Womack]

so they are the same plastic?

yes same plastic guhong 2 has torpedoes so the popping has reduced

I've heard that stickerless Dayan cubes are better than regular Dayan cubes, so does that mean that you can buy 6 stickerless cubes, make 6 solid color cubes with the stickerless cubes, sticker the new solid color cubes, and then have really good cubes?

You got this from the force cube didn't you. Convinsa said in her video that she liked it better than her normal Zhanchi, she also said it was made of 6 different cubes.

Shouldn't it be more than 6 cubes? Each cube only has 9 usable pieces.... that's at least 6 (core, cap, 1/2 an edge, 1/3 corner)+ 12 (rest of the edges and corners) = 18 cubes?

 

[JohnLaurain]

Force Cube? Is this recent? I was wondering about this today at school and this is the first time I've been on the computer since.

@Yuxuibbs: There's one white side per cube, so you would have 6 white sides, making one cube.

Good solution for first layer for CLL on this scramble: R' F R2 U' F U F U' R' U' ?

Assuming you scramble with green on F and white on U : a white layer.

x y'
U' R' U' R F2 R2

This is a strategy I think is fun to use when looking for a layer, try setting it up into a diagonal permutation that bad be cancelled with R2 F2 R2.

Stickerless does not affect the performance of the cube. Dayan products have many slightly defected cubes. That's why some people argue about a bad core, wrong edge piece, misaligned corners not fitting into the cube, excess plastic etc.

I read something about the alpha releasing a new cube or mold? Any info on this?

 

[DYGH.Tjen]

The method that most sub-16 square-1 solvers use? Links to pages/algs etc please. Thanks.

Edit: or you could write something like EP->EO->CO->CP, if you get what I mean.

You don't need to dismantle the 6-colour cubes because the individual colours are sold as cubes already. (if it is the plastic that's making the significant difference)

Shouldn't it be more than 6 cubes?

No, one side per cube for each cube, six sides = six cubes.

Lars's method. Cube > EO > CO > CP > EP.

 

[DYGH.Tjen]

I see, tenkiu Jian Han. I looked through it, and it's more like CO > EO > CP > EP. But if even Bingliang Li uses this method, then how does he perform parity so fast? :O and how do the fast people 'predict' when parity is coming?

 

[JianhanC]

Oops, yes, CO then EO. I dunno, never was a Sq1er myself. I guess if you've been doing Sq1 for a long time you'll be able to predict patterns.

What? You would put stickers on a stickerless cube? I read this like 5 times and still doesn't make sense.

No he's meaning making coloured cubes (all one colour each) and puting stickers on them... like this would make: http://www.witeden.com/goods.php?id=359

Hey, does anyone have a good zhanchi tensioning video? my zhanchi is a little off tension so i need help. thanks.
