Hey everyone, I was curious if anyone had attempted to blindfold the 3x3x3 2-generator puzzle? I personally find it to be a lot of fun, and so far my record...
You use a normal 3x3x3 cube, but you are only allowed to turn two adjacent faces (usually U and R). So you would scramble with U and R, and also solve just by...
... Might be a nice intro to BLD, too, if you already "do" <U,R>. Fewer pieces, and no edge orientations to worry about. I want to try this soon! Mike...

Hi, After a few solves, I found it was much less painful for me to memorize the initial state using only my "visual memory". Do you always use numbers for...
i think the best technique is still drawing imaginary lines for edges and corners, no #s. chun hei wong yhgrps_m <moxyd@...> wrote: Hi, After a few solves,...
Memorization order: EP CP CO EO Solve order: EO CO CP EP I memorize the edge and corner permutation with a combination of visual and muscle memory. I picture...
I memorize permutations (cycles) by visualisation. I have improved my memorization twice since the first approach. I guess most people figure out the same...

... time ... I thought about solving two edges at a time. My buffer edge (from where I solve) would be DF. Then I'd bring the other pieces to UF and UB (or...
Hi Everyone, I guess I joined this group a long time ago but I never paid attention because I couldn't blindfold. I've been successfully blindfolding for ...
I sometimes substitute some numbers for letters. Like 8 becomes H, and 2 becomes B. I then think of that as Homer ans Bart. yhgrps_m <moxyd@...> wrote: ...

If you want to link objects to the cubies I think Pochmann's way of going with colors makes the most sense. So for a white-yellow edge you think of some...

I really have been trying to think how that's possible. There are only two ways I can think to do this. 1) Memorize cycles, but also simultaneously which...
I think he still uses Stefan's method. I'm wondering how much time he spends after memorization decoding the information before he solves because his solve...
Yes, Bernett still uses my method. He just has different images to encode the cubies and different mental routes. And he practices a whole lot more than I've...
The downside with Pochmanns method is that it's not verry good for solving orientation and permutation separately like most of us do now. But if you learn a...

Hey, I have been speed solving for about a year now, and today I just started learning a blindfold method. After 1 day I can do the EO and CO steps. The...
