Hi all,
The holidays are coming up soon, which means some free time for most
cubers! With this extra time, not only could we improve ourselves, we
could teach others how much fun the cube really is. Lets each make a
goal to teach at least one person to solve the cube before the new
year.
It's pretty interesting, Chris. Maybe I'll give it a go :).

Hey everyone,
I am by no means an expert at the F2L. I think I used to average
around 11-12 seconds before switching to opposite color + Xcross
It seems pretty onteresting indeed. I've done 10.42 on average for
F2L, but my biggest problem is the cross that often takes ~3
seconds. If I can choose among two different start I will probably
get easy crosses and x-crosses much more often, and I think I can
lower my avg alot, just like you
Just a question :
What is the difference between a cross and an x-cross ?

I've found and posted some algs I found myself (mostly with help of
ACube) in the past and every time somebody asked for one I had to
recreate it slowly. So finally I now created a page to collect them at
one place:

Nice page, but it looks like you have a rogue u in there somewhere.

Oh ok, I didn't know that X-Cross stood for Extended cross...
Thanks,

x-cross stnads for extended cross and means that you build the
cross and the first pair in one go. I usually build a 2*2*2 and then
finish with the two last edges while I'm
I also started F2l and left the petrus method but i have such a big delay
it take me like 50 sec on the f2l
how do u ppl do it so fast?. there are all these pieces i have to look at
and i am not lookin for 1 peace on more
if u ppl are real experts can u help me achieve

Hi Stefan,
that N1 algorithm is awesome! It looks like this is going to be the
one I'm going to use
from now on.
Hi Lars,
yeah, I'm very happy with that one :-). I was never good with the
standard
Hi Anssi!!
Awesome times there. It's hard to catch up on you when you're always
improving. I took a few days broke last week and know my times are
better and more consistant then ever. I set an average redcord too
today with 17.20!!! All times were sub-20.

Hi :-)
It could be that im stupid ;-)
But what is really the difference between multi-cross solving and
the old discussion about whether to solve with the cross on same
face (same color) or not ??
When it comes to it, you choose ONE cross that you solve first, and
that's it! Having to
Hey Per,
I've noticed that I can get a feel for whether white is good or bad.
Basically I've been solving white for years so my strategy for a while
(which I'm trying to change) is to examine white first. If white is
bad I then examine yellow.
What I've been working on lately is taking a quick
Hello,
If you want a timer just like the ones that are used in competitions :
you should look for stackmats (timer used in speedstacking).
www.speedstacks.com if I'm not wrong.
Have fun !

I think as long as people know what you're talking about then whatever
name you call it works for me ;-)
I guess I'm personally partial to extended cross since that's just
what I've always called it. I did think about calling it some sort of
fish name when I first posted about it though (since
Some current notices:
3x3 Average - 29.71 (sub-30) ALL RIGHT!!! It was just perfect...I dunno...
5x5 Single - 5:00.19 - Yes I was completely pissed with myself that it
wasn't sub-5...but it will happen some day...
Speedstacks and Megaminx are on their way so expect some times being

Hey guys,
I added a brand new finger trick section to my site. Check it out at:
www.solvethecube.co.uk. I hope you will like it. There's still a
little problem with watching the videos in IE... Does anyone have an
idea how to solve that?

P.S: If you can't see the videos, go to the top of that page to click
a link to the *.htm file.. That should work. It's a temporary
solution... Not very elegant, I know :).

Hey all,
I posted a page that lists the ZBF2L algorithms I have learned in
fingertrick notation so that you can see exactly how I would perform
the algorithm. For anybody who is tackling those 306 algorithms, you
can find this page here:
