PB stands for Personal Best and lol no you don't have to learn to solve a 2x2 to understand this.

Indeed, they did. If you do not like the purple, thecubicle.us sells Dayan cubes with purple replaced by orange, or you can buy stickers from cubesmith.com and replace them yourself.

Can anyone here tell me the structural difference between a Dayan Zhanchi and a Dayan Guhong v2?
Also is white plastic really better than black plasic?

White PEEK has much more heat resistance than black PE
White PP has much more flexibility than black PEEK
So yes: white plastic is better

It actually hasn't been proved (as far as I know). There are theories about this, but no-one has 100% proved this.

How do I completely avoid dot cases?

By inserting the pair in different ways, for example, when you see that there is gonna be a dot case (there's no yellow on top) you insert with sledge Hamer instead of the normal insert

Try R U' R' U2 R' F R F'. Only a few extra moves to save a dot case.

Hey boys and girls i want to buy a new 3x3 from lubix, because i heard that they are very good..., but i don't know, if i should take lubix zhanchi or the lubix fusion, i'm averaging about 13-14s and my biggest problem is the fast excecution of oll and pll, because my zhanchi locks very often... so im looking for a fast cube without lots of lock ups

As far as I know, the Fusion has more mods done to it than the Zhanchi, and is a little more expensive. So I would go for the Fusion.

By using [WIKI]Partial Edge Control[/WIKI].
To force partial edge orientation (EO) any last slot (LS) case can be used to flip some edges (EOLS / ZBLS).
The following algorithms link to alg.garron.us and show which case they solve and an animation of the moves.
R' D' r U r' D R2 U R' // 4 flip
R U' R' U2 R' F R F' // FU/FR
(y) F U2 R U' R' F' // UR/UL
(y) F U R U R' U' F' // UF/UR
(y') R D r' U' r D' R2 U' R // 4 flip
F' U2 r' F r F // UF/UB
(y' U2) R' U' F' U F U R // UR/UB
(y') R' U' F' U' F U R // UF/UR
(U) R U2 R' F R' F' R // UB/FR
(y U2) R' F R U R' F' R // UR/FR
(U) R U2 R' U' F' U F // UF/FR

How to learn and memorize colour scheme of my 3x3 cube? Actually want to improve my cross times and the first and the foremast thing is to learn the placement of the colours of the centers. I'm finding it difficult to memorize like opposite colour of the center and mainly the adjacent one when I've white center (or solving the white cross).

For a standard color scheme, what I like to do is throw my cube in the air, close my eyes,catch cube with hands covering left and right side of cube and try to remember the colors using the face, top and bottom.
For example, I caught the cube. yellowis on top and blue is facing towards me. using those two colors, I know red is to the right, orange is on left as it is opposite color, white is bottom , and green is back because its opposite color of blue on my scheme . best scramble cube first
