Hi Everyone, Cubes by Eathsheen are NOT ALLOWED. I will follow up with more details soon. I just got word of this information. Tyson Mao MSC #631 California...
Tyson, FYI, the Eastsheen cubes were allowed in the world championships. The 4x4s and 5x5s were particularly popular. Interested to know why this has changed....
Supposedly, that was not allowed in Toronto either and should not have been allowed. Eathsheen is a rip off company. They target the 2x2 and others because...
Has anyone bought a 4x4x4 or a 5x5x5 recently from Rubiks.com? I think Sunil bought a 4x4x4 recently and it turned really really well. Perhaps they've...
Hi Tyson, My personal best of 1:05.72 was set this weekend on a Rubik's 4x4x4. One of the give away cubes from Toronto! The Rubik's 4x4x4's rule! Have fun, Ron...
I definitely agree, I swear by the rubiks.com 4x4x4 cube :) Once you lubricate them and work them in they are absolutely amazing for speedcubing. My personal...
I know 4 people who bought 4x4x4 rubiks.com cubes and ungreased they were all smoother than most ungreased 3x3x3 cubes. They're even better when lubricated. ...
Hi, Basically the method is 1. Two ML edges 2. Four FL corners 3. Two ML edges 4. Four FL edges 5. Place LL corners 6. Orient LL corners 7. Orient LL edges 8....
My recollection is that Eastsheen 3x3x3's were not allowed, because Seven Towns has a copyright on the 3x3x3 image. Eastsheen 4x4x4's and 5x5x5's were...
Chris, I will stand along with you in protest.. I have had the same experiences as you have when solving with the rubiks 5x5 and the eastsheen 5x5. My times...
Hi friends, I think in general a method is suitable for speedcubing if it has: = as few steps as possible = as few intuitive steps as possible = a nice number...
Hi guys, Of course, we're still sorting this out. If I were you, I would start practicing on the rubiks.com 5x5x5 though. We really cannot go against Seven...
Perhaps if we could modify the eastsheen in a manner that is patentable we could justify its use? this is merely a long term solution, no telling how much in...
They don't seem to have their own venue for buying their cubes...closest official site is a primary school. -K- ... __________________________________ Do you...
... Hi Tyson, Everybody, I don't know about the Eastsheen's patent, but the basic 2x2x2 using a different mechanism from Rubik's, predates Rubik's cube, so ...
How many people will be in the area with cars (you or your parents) for the tournament? The reason I ask is the people who are flying here are spending a lot...
Please forgive my ignorance of this is a stupid question, but if the patent office does not consider the Eastsheen cubes to be breaching the rubik's cube...
Why isn't Meffert's receiving the same scrutiny? Or are they purveyors of EastSheen? ... __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Friends. Fun. Try...
For the reason that the law suits against these companies would cost more than the sales received from the puzzles. Tyson Mao MSC #631 California Institute of...
Eastheen cubes are preferred by a lot of cubists, but if anybody bought one of the new rubiks.com 4x4x4, or 5x5x5, they would probably be very pleased. I...
Looks like I'm a bit behind on my posts... Regarding "tenseness", this is particularly an issue for me since I'm normally quite isolated and tend to be nervous...
Well I am almost totally in agreement with Chris regarding his frustrations with the legality of his favorite 5x5x5 cube. For myself, I spent years and years...
Hi, My name is Paul, i've been cubing since March 2004. My best time is 35, but i'm averaging 55. I just wanted to say hi. And i was wondering if theres any...
