Post subject:  Rubik's Cube

I have had my Rubik's Cube for about a year now and have taken a bigger interest in it the past few weeks. So I just thoughti would post a topic about it. Feel free to discuss anything you like about it: your best times, strategies etc.

My times range from around 1:30 to 2 minutes flat. I currently am stuck in that time area and dont really know how to get faster, besides lubing my cube which I dont care enough to do.

I completed one once. It took me the death of hope to finish it, but hey, I still did it :mrgreen:

Ah I love my Rubik's cube! I was the "Cube Kid" freshman year in my highschool. My top time was 53 seconds, and now I average around 1:25 seconds because I haven't done it in forever :P

I can solve 3x3 and 5x5 in less than 20 minutes, usually.

Not a 4x4x4? I just remembered I can do that as well, but mine broke and I haven't tried since

My best time is about 1:20. Average probably 5 minutes including when I was learning. It's quite fun at times, but can get boring very easy.

I made a bit of money last year betting people I could finish it. :D

Cheers, dafin0 :lol:

I'm rubbish at them, or at least I assume I am- I never seem to have enough patience to stick at it for more than 2 minutes.

Cool found the topic LOL. Nice to see someone other than me likes to mindlessly play with a cube :D My fastest actual recorded time is 43 seconds but its been a while :(

Just some tips:
- Get a proper speed cube!
- Lube it up
- Learn F2L (First two layer) where you put together the corners and the middle pieces together in one go. Shaves off seconds ^^

Post a vid pl0x :D!

Cool, I don't think I have a "proper" speed cube, I just have the Milton Bradley one. I have been wanting to lube it but I dont have any non-toxic lube in my house and really dont want to buy any. I will definitely post a video in a week when winter break starts and I have time. I am also getting a 4x4 for christmas and ill post a vid of that too.

I've been doing it since last year and I do about the same time as you nikeballa. Never really practiced doing high speed moves or really put in the effort of solving it quicker. I'm just glad I know how to solve it and just knowing how to solve it was my main motive for trying. That and some kids at school were trying to do it so I figured that then was the best time. 8)
