... Is that acceptable to the rest of you? I'll be happy to run the contest if so. ... That is very high on my "to do" list. I am currently working on a ...
... In 1987, I won the first prize in math at the Prince Georges County, MD regional science fair with basically this concept: a general solution to an...
Hey guys, I just posted our next update. Charlie added configurable face colors to the user settings, and I got the 2^5 through 5^5 working again. To...
I had the thought the other day that it would be cool to do a 4D version of the Megaminx. A little wikipedia and web searching revealed that the word ...
... Yep. Don and I have both done a bunch of work visualizing the 120 cell and other regular 4D objects when we were in school together in 1985-86. In roughly...
Hey guys, Melinda got MC5D and MC4D slashdotted Sunday morning! I thought you might be interested in some web stats. Mine only get updated once a day, so...
It's been great for the Superliminal site too with roughly half of Roice's traffic. In the last 2 days it saw over a third of a million hits from over 83,000...
... Hello. I'm copying the 4d_cubing list on my reply in case someone else wants to chime in. You'll have better luck on questions or comments about the 4d...
Hello all! I haven't posted any messages on this forum except my introductory message last summer, when I solved the 3^4 cube. This time I solved the 2^5 cube....
Congratulations to Sebastian and the 3^5 solvers!! I'm completely impressed that so many people have managed to solve any 5D puzzles. I'm not at all surprised...
Congratulations Sebastian! I have added your name in the Hall of Insanity. By the way, if any of you want a link for your name, please just let me know. Like...
... Wow, your memory is good. I didn't remember that at all, but it makes sense-- try to make a rubik's-like puzzle out of an octahedron or icosahedron, it...

... If I ever try solving the 3^5, then I won't try using the click- twisting. For me, it's much easier to turn the faces by using the combo because it tells...
Thanks for the cool comments Melinda and Don. I have just a couple inlines below. ... Oops... After reading Don's email today, I saw I had used the wrong term...
I have been working on solving the 3^5 for the past week or so, and am coming pretty close. So far I have noticed several things that could be improved. I'm...
Hi Doug, Thank you for the excellent comments. I can't say when we'll be able to get around to all these suggestions, but we will certainly throw them in the...
... One thing I've wanted to mention that involves both of the above issues is support for marks in the 5D log files. In the 4D puzzle we include marks where...
I just uploaded a new MC5D install. There is now a menu with a couple of
stereo options (cross-eyed/anaglyph), so time to bust out your red/cyan
comic book...
Alright!! This is awesome, Roice. I'm sorry that you can't see the cross-eyed stereo yet. It's quite beautiful in all it's colorful glory. I'm sort of...
... I don't think Rainbow Symphony is a good source. As far as I can tell, they only sell in bulk. I would appreciate a pointer to a source for onesies....
... I never realized that before, but it makes sense... The red filter only lets through red, and the cyan filter only lets through green and blue. So if you...

Hello! It is funny but I can't see 3D films using glasses! Everybody enjoys 3D effects during films like Shrek 3D but not me... It's all mixed, red spots are...
I'm currently working on some 4D glasses, but sadly they only work if you have 3 eyes. Brains and eyes work in subtle harmony (or disharmony). There are some ...
... I am pretty much the same way, but I may be able to offer some tips as I have largely successfully taught myself to compensate for my asymmetrical vision...
I'm happy to announce that Noel Chalmers has now solved the 5^4 and posted a new record shortest solution with 4013 twists beating the previous record by 650...

OK then. I was 40 when I did the 3^4 (which took a weekend), 41 when I did the 4^4 (which also took a long weekend) and got a splitting headache when I tried...
