My times on 3x3 are usually around 1:30. I also have a 4x4 and a 2x2. Oh, and the 2x2 isn't as easy as you would think.

My new cubes just arrived today, so now i have a 2x2, 3x3 4x4, and 5x5.  I can do the 2x2 in 25 seconds, 3x3 in 1 minute, and 4x4 in 5 minutes.

yeah, i can solve a rubik's cube too(i do it in between the comercals wen im wachin tv then my brother mixes it up during the show) but what i want to do is solve the 4x4 cube! where would i get one of these???

I have a Rubik's Cube somewhere, and I have no idea where it is. It looks like a normal Rubik's Cube, meaning that it is nowhere near being completed. ;)
Amen!

sry, idont know where to get one, but i do know that theres alot of steps to finish it, i think theres something like 36 steps to solve it.
oh, and i can solve the 3X3  in about 1:45
*Edit*  ive now got my time to about 1:10

does anybody know the world record for fastest rubix cube solve? (of a 3X3)

I just want to destroy these evil things

PseudoMario16

destroy them if you will acropol, but one guy can solve it in 8.72 seconds, thats the world record

PseudoMario16

woah, try this- its a new algorithm i discovered
take the rubix cube, and whatever side is on top, rotate it once clockwise, and the the left side away from you or towards you twice(it doesnt matter) repeat this 30 times (yes, literally 30 times) and the cube should be in its original state

Um... do you know notation... or any general rubik's cube theory? any set of moves repeated a certain number of times will return it to it's original state

R, U, R', U = 5
R', B', R, B = 6
U = 4

and no. It's 7.08 seconds by Erik Akkersdijk

Anyway...

QuoteI'm getting into speedcubing, and I was wondering which one to get: a DIY 3x3x3, or an eastsheen 3x3x3. Also, where do I find them? I can't find them anywheres.

PseudoMario16

i know notation, but i dont care much for the theory,
oh, and i read on rubiks.com that the record was 8.72 seconds and that was like two weeks ago, so it might have changed, but i didnt know if it did or not...

I am able to finish one side with one row done.
I can also put all colors on a different middle if it's done.

My record for a 3x3 is 1:29, but I usally get around 1:45 if I don't really try that hard
