I usually solve this thing by getting the eight tiles around each center the same color, then I line up the edge pieces so adjacent edge pieces match (although not necissarily [how do you spell that anyway?] touching the correct center color) I then solve it like a 3x3x3, and all the rules apply and it works.
However, 50% of the time, I get this.  Notice the inverted red and blue edge pieces.
I'm basically trying to line up these three edge pieces so the colors are fine. By the way, all the other edges are lined up and the centers are okay. I have brainstormed as hard as I could, and I can't figure it out. I tried rearranging it many times, and the only way I've been able to get around it so far is by mixing up the whole cube and starting over again, and just hoping that I don't get this again. A little help, anyone?  |

I do! 
Go here. I had that same problem way back! Also, if you have an appreciation for Rubik's Cubes, you should check my Myspace pics, here. |

Thanks! Does this 4x4x4 strategy work with a 5x5x5? I don't have a Rubik's Revenge.
Edit: Yep, it worked. Thanks! Oh, and the link didn't work, it redirected me to www.myspace.com |

I never solved it or scrambled it but yeah, 20x20x20, get the fuck out. ____________________

The computer one is a 4D cube (Rubik's Tesseract) 
My average three (and other stuff) 
A cool pattern 
The other side so I remember how it all went 
I solved 'em! (5D cube in screen now) 
The 5D 2x2x2x2x2. I've done the top half so far. 
My first solve on the 4D 3x3x3x3 (1,366 moves) 
My first solve on the 4D 4x4x4x4 (3,400 moves) 
My current status on the 4D 5x5x5x5 (I've got a world record shot) If you can't tell, I've solved the centers, like Goldensunboy. |

I barely understand freakin' 3D. SWR, you are a (rubik's) god among men.
Obviously, I can't do anything to help you, Goldensunboy ¬_¬ ____________________ |

Seriously, the only real and legit way to solve a Rubik's Cube is to peel the stickers off.
Obviously

I don't understand because it looks like 3D.

Posted by darklink898Then would you mind sharing with the class what a 4D or 5D Rubik's Cube would look like? (I don't know about you, but I know I can't see more than 3 dimensions.) A computer monitor can't really project 4 dimensions, even if we could see them, anyway. At best it'd have 3 dimensions with an indicator (shade of a given color, for instance) to indicate the 4th... and that only really works with graphs, not so much with Rubik's Cubes. |

And since when are we in a classroom? xD Is there a trick to get the cube right? I can't get it (The 3x3x3)

I'm pretty sure (since our minds are only programmed to interpret images up to the third dimension) that a 4-dimensional object is basically TWO overlapping three dimensional objects that are connected at corresponding verteces. Picture two skeletons of cubes (you know, the 12 lines that make one). One is partially inside the other. Now, keeping the distance between corresponding verteces all the same length as a side of the cubes, connect vertex A on one cube to vertex A on the other, vertex B to vertex B on the other, etc. to get a 4-dimensional cube. In the third dimension, it looks a bit like a hexagonal prism. |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_dimension
I remember doing some 4 dimensional stuff in Discrete Math when touching on graph theory if I'm remembering right. Pretty crazy stuff, fun that is. I've never been a Rubik's Cube person, although I did just teach myself how to solve the 3x3's last semester. Pretty fun and addicting. Although those speed cuber's are even more amazing. ____________________  |

I need to find a Rubik's Cube, Revenge, and whatever that 5x5 is called. If I can solve THOSE, I might be able to handle a 4d cube.
But right now I can't even handle a 3x3 online cube. Does anyone have a Tetrahedron? It's got four faces with 9 stickers per side. ____________________ we're currently experiencing some technical difficulties |
