Welcome Matthew. Great to have you join us. ... Coincidentally, this question of parities came up and led to lively discussion only a few months ago. With...
... I have looked in the database to find the parity present on the 4^4, and found the case which you have found in your solves, with the 2C pieces. I didn't...
Dear Cubists, I'm sure you'll all be interested to know that more than 100 people have now solved the full 4D cube! I've attached a chart showing the number of...
This is a public congratulations to Matthew Sheerin and Jon Sorrells who each posted solutions to the 5^4 within about an hour of each other! How strange is...
Hi there, Just came across this article and thought it might be of interest to those of you for whom 3D Rubik's cube-style puzzles have become way too easy...
I don't find the void cubes very interesting but I know other people obviously like them. I do however love the mirror cube. I've seen one and it's quite...
Thanks for sharing this article. I actually have a few puzzles that more or less follow these principles. Perhaps the best example is "Triple Cross", which...
Hello everyone, It's been a while, so I thought I should update the group on my progress with my paper. Obviously, I didn't finish it over Spring Break! I...
Hi! I was #93 on the 3^4 solution list, and I was told I had a unique solution, so I wanted to let you all know what I did. Sorry for the delay, there was some...
... That sounds vey similar to my solution. I began by making one side of the 3^4 a solid colour, without paying attention to the anything but the 2C pieces,...
In that case my solution was not unique at all. Any hints on getting corners to line up nicely? I was working to systematize the solution using 3d techniques,...
Hi Kyle, In response to the MC5D paragraph, which of the two twisting control schemes are you finding difficult to use, the buttons or the click twisting? If...
... Hi, hate to say it but I've also thought of that trick, though it did take a few attempts to figure out how to achieve it. It can't be a bad way to solve...
Hey Roice, ... I was referring to a freedom of movement sequence: 3^2: unable to physically twist 3^3: center 3^2 slice can twist with the help of a single...
... Actually, Kyle, On a 3^n, the 1 color cubies are immovable in relation to each other. (Their "orientation" can be changed...) Look at a 3^3. If yours has...
What Roice didn't mention is that he also had one made and sent to me! It's one of the most beautiful and personal gifts I've ever gotten. I added a photo to...
Hello all, I am pleased to say that I have finally finished my paper which derives the number of possible positions of an n^4 Rubik's Cube! I actually can't...
Hello all, I just wanted to let everyone know that I have made some minor clarifications and corrections to the 4^4, 6^4, and 8^4 Cube sections of my paper....
Dear All, I got a stomach sinking email today from a member who accidentally overwrote an almost completed solution in Magic120Cell. 17000 moves had been...
OMG, that story simply breaks my heart! Are you sure there are no copies anywhere? Was an intermediate copy ever emailed to work account or to a friend? Maybe...
Hi everyone, I have derived a formula for the upper bound of an n^6 Rubik's Cube! I was able to do so after discovering a general method that will allow me to...
I am happy to announce that after starting this project almost four years ago (when I first calculated the number of configurations of a standard 3x3x3 Rubik's...
Hi everyone! My name is Klaus and I am a cuber from Bavaria, Germany. I am 18 years old (born on 19.04.1991) and going to finish school this year. After that...
if anyone is curious on a algorithm that switches 2 pairs of 3-colored pieces without messing up anything (even corners!),let me know and ill respond with the...
Hi Jonathan, If you would find a similar algorithm for the 3^4 I would really appreciate to hear of it, because I'm doing corners first and therefore the...
yes actually i do. though i dont use ur method of solving the cube i was able to come up with a simple algorithm that can manage and satisfy your taste. i also...
My name is Anthony Deschamps. I am 17 years old and living in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. I am in my last year of high school, and next year I plan to study...
