(Rubik's) Cubists Unite!

Posted on Sat Oct 10, 2009 9:12 am

Discuss your times and methods you use on the Rubik's cube.
I use the basic (noob) method.
It takes me a bit over 2 minutes.
So discuss yours, which are possibly (more like definitely) better than mine.
F2L requires too much practice and time which I don't have at the moment. Sad

I also use the noob method but I can finish the cube in 1:32 minutes. Very Happy

F2l method for me and some advanced F2L shorcuts and PLL/OLL shortuts.

My fastest was 11 seconds. Average as of today is around 20 seconds because I'm not into cube right now compared before.

Here's a vid with a 16 seconds solve.

@nudels:
Is that you?

And how do you get times like 50 secs with the basic method? I can't move so fast. Sad

I hvn been playing Rubik's cube for very long time...
Wat's the size of rubik's cube u mean? 3x3? 4x4? or more? Em, past record.. fastest 28 seconds, using the OLL and PLL, F2L i know a bit of them only... 4x4 takes me minutes.. reminisce the time when playing the cube. Laughing

but now it seems kind of outdated here... T______T

Yeah that was me. The basic method for me was the corner method. I studied F2L right away and learned it in a month. Anyway let's go cubing guys. I'm getting warmed up again. And oh I also do 4x4x4, 5x5x5 and 2x2x2.

LOL
I love the feeling when we can show off our cubing skills at the time when every one is interested in those cubes.

Nudel u can memorize all the F2L formula? it's gay!! xD
i think F2L formulae are more than OLL right?

Anyone tried more than 5x5 before? Laughing

Noob Method:

Form A cross.. Which leaves the upper left and right part and lower left and right part... finish off with the sides..

am I right with that?
