10 seconds here

i am the master

I learned how to solve a rubik's cube using a set of algorithms and could do it in about a minute and a half, but I'm not serious about it. It's just something neat to be able to do.

**Shadowcliff** · 11-13-2010, 03:23 PM

Messing with one right now.
Definitely not a speed-solver. I'm still learning some algorithms. I can solve the first two layers from memory, but still need to memorize how to get the cross at the top and the corners in the correct place. From there I know how to flip them around.

JKPolk · 11-13-2010, 05:45 PM

RUR'URUU to fix the cross and then URU'LUR'U'L' to permute the corners problem solved

**Superfreak04** · 11-13-2010, 05:46 PM

A real challenge?

Forgot the R' at the end of the first one.

JKPolk · 11-13-2010, 07:01 PM

Meh, it's implied.

**zadkiel91** · 11-13-2010, 07:46 PM

yep, I'm learning 3-cycle orientation permutation. Still getting the whole idea on how to get to solve it.
Have you tried the 'Square-1'?

**Shadowcliff** · 11-14-2010, 12:31 PM

I just memorized how to solve it the most common way. Assuming the most common way is what JKPolk advised me about. Finally, I can be handed an unsolved cube and hand it back solved in under 3 minutes.

Using that logic, the last move of any algorithm is implied. And using that logic again, so is the second to last move, and the third to last, etc.

A full algorithm is a full algorithm, no last move is implied bullcrap.

**qqwref** · 11-14-2010, 12:43 PM

I solve it on occasion.

Blindfolded solving is boring.

well aren't you just the best rubik's cube solving master of all time god damn

Yeah, "resolve the face you broke to start the algorithm" is totally a leap of faith. In the future I'll make sure to babyproof all of my answers for you.

I never bothered learning a quick way of solving a rubik's cube, but I like them.
I have a 7x7 v-cube actually, that thing is a lot of fun to mess with.

btw, odd numbered cubes are a lot easier to solve than even numbered.

**Matrixdude** · 11-14-2010, 09:52 PM

This thread (and Rushy's thread) inspired me to solve my first cube today =)

This is really cool I feel like I'm really gonna get into this haha.

**Shadowcliff** · 11-16-2010, 08:37 PM

Instead of sitting around waiting for something I now solve cubes to pass time. O_o

**reuben_tate** · 11-17-2010, 08:08 PM

It's interesting that no one mentioned 2 X 2 cubes. o.O

MrRubix · 11-17-2010, 08:23 PM

Because they're kinda lame. They take like 2 seconds to solve... not as interesting.

ShAiOnEi · 11-17-2010, 08:43 PM

I just learned to solve the cube been thinking about learning the speedcubing algorythms though.
