I know many of you frequent the speedsolving rubiks group, but I thought i'd mention it here too. I just did my first 3x3x3 blindfolded :) total time was...
Way to go Daniel!! How do think you will go about cutting down the time? S. ... _________________________________________________________________ Get Hotmail...
Here is most of Richard's advanced method in one email, a total of 95 algorithms! These appeared in instalments over at speedsolving. I have changed some...
Thanks very much, that's very useful indeed! I'll probably just practice quite a bit. once I get the memorization time down, then I'll work on getting the...
Hi all! Anybody still living in this group? ;-) I just heard of it and was pointed to this post of Richard's method. Question: Is he really using this many...
Hi Stefan, Yup, I'm alive. lol answer to your q: Dr. C does not use all those algs, just suggested that more algorithms could be used for blindfold cubing, and...
Hi Dr. C, I know what you want! ... I can't determine whether marked "A" on B face is Bld or Brd. Anyway, put "A" on B face to Blu using B face turn. (Bx) l2 d...
I thought about orienting the ULF, URB, DLB and DRF corners with one algorithm and then the other four corners with another algorithm. That is, assuming those...
I do this a lot on 2x2x2... well, kind of. What I do is first I use an alg to get corners in their correct layer (U/D) and the corners of each layer solvable...
Hey would anyone be interested in some sort of blindfold weekly contest? It would be sort of like the Sunday contest only for blindfolded solves. Does...
Hi Chris, I would definately participate - though I may miss out an occasional week if I get too busy. I rarely time myself so it would make for a great...
Announcning the first ever Sunday blindfolded contest. Feel free to participate as often as you wish. The main events are for the 3x3x3, but other puzzles...
What is the general idea for do it? I don't know if the best is solve first the corner or edges or a layer, solve position or orientation. I want to solve it...
Today, at 11:52 PM, I successfully blindfolded a 2x2x2. Yay! -Tyson I've opened a bottle of apple cider. Just come by my room at Caltech if you want some....
Hey Tyson, Good job doing the 2x2 blindfold, how long did it take you. Btw, the 2x2 is the best way to start blindfold, and keep trying hard and get fast...
Hey everybody, the first sunday blindfold contest results are posted. Macky won the "memorize and solving" contest and Daniel Hayes won the "solving only"...
The results of the Open Division for the Feb. 22, 2004 contest are up. Check them out, and feel free to compete next week! Compete as often as you like! ...
I can blindfold solve the cube consistently anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes depending on the status of the cube, including memorization. However, when you have...
Hi all, I wondered what you think about this: Imagine you're trying to solve a harder puzzle blindfolded, which will take you let's say much more than an hour....
Hey Macky; I've seen what you can do and I am quite impressed with your abilities! How do you do it so quickly, memorization and all? I understand that you...
Hey everyone, the Sunday BD contest algs are posted for this sunday. I also made a few rules changes (thanks to everyone for all the feedback). I hope...
... This could easily be abused, but as long as you are truly verifying that you are where you think you are, and not attempting to figure out where you...
I wanted to put this rule change suggestion up for discussion. Rule ... I would suggest that it should also be acceptable to hold the cube behind/under a...
