Originally posted by Zem More liek I can't see the cube, mirite? But it's very possible. After all, they are the Asians. They've done things in worse conditions than this. Oh, and I tried to find that video you were talking about, but didn't have any luck with it.  |

Originally posted by Yoronosuku Yeah. Many of them are smart but not all. At least itīs not a bad stereotype. "If I recall, there was a vid (I'm thinking it was on AFHV) showing someone with their head underwater and solving the cube behind his back, hands unsubmerged, in 50 seconds."  |

The next challenge: solve the cube when everything but your hands is frozen in carbonite!!!!!!! |

If I recall, there was a vid (I'm thinking it was on AFHV) showing someone with their head underwater and solving the cube behind his back, hands unsubmerged, in 50 seconds.
Not as impressive as 11 seconds mind you but...seriously...wtf? And I thought I lacked a life. |

Yeah...I know that  I was just having fun, you know the stereotype that asians asre smart? And I was just---yeah. Never mind ._.;; forget it. It dosn't matter, because the Rubix Cube is still difficult, and that's not going to change whether you got the point of my post or not D= |

Originally posted by Yoronosuku Uh, you donīt have to asian to be good at that, you know. I mean, asians are usually quick with their fingers but that doesnīt apply for everyone. So itīs not your fault, really. |

I solved one once. It took like an hour. I also got to the last layer of them where I only needed to get 3 corners right about 8 times that day. I was bored to say the least. The first two layers I got down to like 15 minutes eventually... that was like a month ago though so I dunno how well I can do it anymore. |

Like I previously stated, taking apart the cube seems a bit easier and less time consuming than the whole sticker thing.
I mean, eventually the stickers will stop sticking, and then you will have to get glue or something else to have them stick. Or the stickers begin to fall off rendering your cube useless. |

You, maybe. Not everyone has a screwdriver on them that often. But there are other tools you can use to get the stickers off. And that still doesn't change the fact that using a screwdriver is more cumbersome that using the stickers. |

I have a screwdriver on me more often than I have long nails. |
| asdf Posts: 278/4077 |
But if you can get the stickers thing right, it's better than the prying it apart method. That way, you don't need to use as much force or any special tools. All it takes for the stickers is long enough nails. |

Originally posted by Apofisu Why would you ever do the stickers thing why I don't know why it bugs me so much when people mention the stickers thing BUT IT DOES Because it just seems like a humongous pain in the ass compared to prying the cube apart and snapping it back together. You have to keep 54 little stickers all nice and neat as you take them off and reapply them? Seriously that is the worst thing ever. |

I did the stickers thing once. =P |

I'm asian and I'm not even that good I can solve one of those, but it takes me a little while, you know? ._.;; it isn't very easy, you've got to think about it the whole time because every row you turn effects another one of them. |

I've never had good spatial sense, so I've never even solved a rubik's cube. I also lack patience, so that also prevents me from doing it.
On-topic, I imagine at this rate, someone will break 10 seconds in 5 years. Wow. |
| Danielle Posts: 1487/6737 |
I have one, but I've never solved it.  I really screwed it up upon opening, so I couldn't follow any of the patterns they tell you. That's okay though, it's fun to mess around with every once in a while.  |

I have actually solved a Rubik's Cube once when I was about 15 but it took hours to do it. I can never imagine doing it in seconds cause you have to have really good memory and really fast hands to actually be that good.
Well, a friend of mine from high school named Brandon makes solving this look as easy as breathing. He brings his Rubik's Cube all the time to school and always solves it quick around all of our classmates and our teacher. I do think that he could beat that record if he wanted to  .
I do give all my props to anyone who solves this damn thing. Good job to the asian kid  . |

I can do them decently fast. I did one a few to many times and reset it everytime to be the exact same and got it in like a minute and a half. Normally it takes to damn long though. |

Originally posted by HyperHacker So, you can prove to the world that you just solved the world's easiet Rubik's cube? I mean, one bucket of paint, with one paint color. So, you just paint the whole thing one color? Simply genius. |
