Rubik's Cube

[Bulbasaur]

And last week I bought a 4x4x4 because I got bored of the 3x3x3. Then today I memorized the last formula so now I can solve any 4x4x4 that is assembled properly...

When I can afford it, I am buying a 5x5x5...

I hate solving the 4x4x4. The parities at the end are always such a pain.

What I've discovered is that (I may be wrong here) is that corner parity is caused by not fixing edge parity the moment it rears its ugly head. Reason I say that is because I have not had to deal with any corner parity since learning to fix edge parity, meaning that I only need to learn that and one other algorithm. The other algorithm is for opposite or adjacent edge parity but it's the same algorithm, and is fairly easy when it's taught the same way I learnt it.

By the way, I would look into speed cubes instead of Rubik's brand. The Rubik's brand are awful; literally any speed cube would turn a lot more easily. Plus, they're much cheaper.

I have looked into them however my biggest challenge is that I can't buy stuff online.

Also, bought a 5x5 today and mastered that in about two hours. Only needed to learn one algorithm.


3x3x3: 1:39.19

4x4x4: 6:19.97

5x5x5: Still 10 minutes or more

Oh, fair.

Honestly, haven't even timed myself with anything above 3. I just don't like solving bigger cubes, I guess.

Fair enough. See I'm not big on speed, but more so being able to do the bigger cubes. I guess the bigger the cube, the less people can complete it, and I like being able to do stuff not many people can haha

That's fair! It's just too tedious for me. Because of that, I still haven't solved a 7x7x7. XD

I've solved a Rubik's Cube!



... by taking it apart and putting it back together. I have legitimately managed to solve mine once, but never again, haha. I've always had a bit of a thing for Rubik's Cubes despite being pretty bad at figuring them out, though. Maybe I'll try again some day.

It's pretty hard figuring out without algorithms! I've only solved the 2x2x2 without algorithms.

In the last few days I bought and solved a Megaminx!
