[AustinReed]

Oh wait. This hasn't been done in a while.
SURPRISE CHALLENGE

Point is, once you click on this thread, and you have a cube available, you have to do the challenge. No exceptions (well maybe a couple).

The challenge is: Solve a 3x3 while your thumb, index finger, and middle finger are taped together on both hands.

Scramble is: L2 D R2 U' R2 F2 L2 U2 L2 D R2 B' L D F U B2 R2 F R2 B


Have fun!

Oh, and happy 1,000 post to me.

Man, I really should have scrambled my cube before I taped my fingers together. ._.

I got 50.91. I pretty much turned everything with my wrists.

 

[emolover]

Clicked on it, for no reason really, but hey, got to do a challenge.

2:11.98, wrists atw for this.

7:50.93. I tried to record it for your entertainment, but it seems that nothing was recorded.

Did cross and F2L, then messed up OLL and everything I've done before was also messed up. Had to start over again, tape came undone and had to retape again. So cross, F2L, OLL and finishing with a V-perm. As a bonus, my pinky got some extra exercise today.

2:23.45, pretty hard -_-

 

[henkka]

3:05.44 Well that was fun

 

[Alcuber]

Didn't seem too hard if you turn with your wrists

1:47.18, OLL skip and H-perm >_> Why couldn't it be on a normal solve I got this?

Also, 11 replies and 111 thread views? Some people not doing the challenge?
