Hi, my name is Adam, and I'm a cubaholic. Anyway, I recently picked up a cube, looked up Jiri and Lars' sites, and started cubing. By the time I could do it...

Okay, I'm giving up completely on Lars' method (sorry) so, I'm going to need help on reflections. I decided to learn Jiri's reflecting guide (Fa and Fs etc ...

The easiest way is to memorize it one way and just <br>flip it in your mind when you "play it back", rather than trying to memorize algorithms twice or <br>try...

I had an idea that I think would, if not get under 10, would get pretty close. What if you were to study all of the first two layer algorithms so that you knew...

I think it's definitely helpful to know how each move affects the cube, although I'd be impressed if anyone could actually implement this technique without ...

Do you guys have any tricks or tips on memorizing algorithms?...

My tricks on memorizing the algorithms were:<br>- watch what happens to the parts of the bottom layer; at the end of the algorithm all parts should return to ...

Watch the design of the cube after each move. When i do a move, it's hard to explain, it's almost like I'm watching a story, as crazy as that sounds. Each time...

Hi Chris,<br><br>I have sort of the same experience.<br>I noticed it when after thoroughly scrambling the cube without looking, it happened to be solved again!...

I have definitely experienced this same thing. You just scramble the cube so much that you inevitably start developing a sequence that you regularly repeat. I...
