... Mmmm, yes... I have tried solving with the tip of my nose, but with eyes open (not by smell). Didn't succeed. But I think the braille idea is still too...
... believe ... I know when I do this after getting a good time, it's partly because I want to be sure myself that I don't write down or remember a wrong time....
I solve the last layer of the megaminx by first solving edges and then corners. That's because corners move much more freely than edges, they're part of three...
... first, ... comparison ... I think what you need is in Bernard Helmstetter's pages: http://www.ai.univ-paris8.fr/~bh/cube/ He lists: CLL (25 configurations,...

Because this tournament will bring in a different crowd than those who go to the normal Caltech competitions, we will probably make it official pending...
!!#&+*#&& !!!!!! I just had a sub-10 solve (well scrambled, but very lucky in the end of course), and my video camera was not working...GGGGRRRR... Putain de...
Hey everyone, I recently have gotten very interested in bettering my 2x2x2 times. I had a question about one strategy that I think would help for those who do...
Hi Chris This is a rather quirky event. It seems similar to solving one side with one move. I think that trying to figure out the correct CLL alg with a mix...
Does anyone know of any good sites that have some advanced F2L (corner-edge pair) algorithms beyond the 41 Fridrich ones? The algs on this page are great, but...
Hey, that page looks familiar :P I started that page a while ago, and I have a bad tendency of getting tangled up in other projects. Of course if anyone has...
Hey Lucas, and all following this thread. I had my first success in using this offset 2x1 groups as the first layer approach. I just got a 5.90 second solve...
... Hi Stefan, Almost certain they are weighted, as the figures for "Fridrich" are the usual ones. Why do you need the unweighted? (Just nosy!) [Btw, I had...

Hello Chris, I think that managing opposite colors during CLL as you proposed (and as I proposed before, and Ryan even before ;-) ) should not be a big ...

Hi Chris.. It is an interesting strategy... But recognition is a bit of a problem.. However, when Fridrich published her method, some people thought...
