The standalone timer now has a 'scramble generator' that can be used to generate any number of scrambles for 2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4, and 5x5x5. Usefull for people...

Wery nice timer you have made. But I canīt start the server. I canīt get it to use my IP to internet. It will only find my local IP. And one more thing from...
I dont have a problem with the time. (even though i will most likely be out of school then) but still, if it was in the summertime, i probably wouldn't go....
Hi I calculated a different number of cases: There are 58 OLL's and 22 PLL's (including 'solved' ones) 2 OLL's have 4 lines of symmetry. These OLL's have 22...
Good timer Chris, even though I still prefer Dan Knights' timer for its simplicity. Anyway, my opinions for improvements: I would suggest that when you click...
... The core idea I had when I made the "Petrus" method is to build permanent achievements. Things you don't need to break once you built them, while still...
Hey everyone, I've been working a lot on the 4x4x4 after the US competition and I've decided to work on a new idea for doing the edges, one which I had tried a...
I can't really see what the point is here. I've never understood the concept of giving people scrambling algorithms and asking them to solve anyway. All you've...
All I meant to say is that you can avoid the "parity error" where two edge pieces are switced 100% of the time simply by counting the number of inner slice...

I agree something in the rules should be added about this but perhaps it could be more general such as "the scrambling algorithm cannot be used in any way to...

I am certainly no expert when it comes to 4x4 solving, but I do agree with Chris. As a community we should try our best to prevent loop-holes in our "rules."...
It would be nice to see that spreedsheet... I remain confident of my answer. Here is why there cannot be 42 distinct cases for the 5 OLL pattterns: I'm sure...
