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...
i will use ROICES NOTATION at(http://www.superliminal.com/cube/solution/pages/cube.htm) also, i would like to thank roice because i used roice's techniques and...
Hi, I joined the group a while back and had a few puzzles. A fellow programmer of more experience than myself (Igor) gave me some helpful hints on how to...
Thanks for this sequence. I'm going to attempt my second solve today and I'm going to give your sequence a try. However I already have some sequences for that...
I don't know but I did find it very interesting when I learned the other day that the world record time for solving a 2^3 was set last year by Erik Akkersdijk...
Hi everyone, I'm currently trying to do the 3^4 in as few twists as possible and I think this could get a really good try. But at the moment I'm stuck with...
I certainly know how you feel, I had the same problem doing a fewest moves solve on the 2^4. I could not find a very short solution for it (relative to the...
Thanks a lot. That is way better than my solution. I'll use this and hope that I will not encounter any further problems during the rest of the solve. Have a...
This brings up a question that I've been struggling with and have yet to make up my mind about which is whether it should be considered to be fair for people...
In the same way that fewest moves competitors can have attempts with different scrambles by attending several competitions, I believe that trying a few...
Hi everyone, I also thought about this but for my system this doesn't really make sense because it just takes to long to get to a position from where you can...
Hi Klaus, It would seem that you use a different method from me (not exactly surprising given the range of methods a 'mere' 3D cube presents) so the similarity...
Hi Matthew, I will give a description of my solution when I have finished this solve and perhaps two or three other ones, depending on how close I get to...
To answer Klaus' question, it currently *is* possible with the current puzzle to supply a scrambled log file that does not include the scramble history. I'm...
Hello again, This has certainly turned out to be an interesting discussion! That's an interesting method you have there Klaus, and I'm sure I'm not the only...
All- I think allowing "cherry-picking" should be allowed, as it's not enforcible. However as with 3^3 cubing and n^4 with macros, this should be mentioned by...
Hello everyone, recently I do not have very much time and therefore my current solve doesn't proceed very fast, but I think in about one or two weeks I will...
