Rubik's Cubes

Post Reply New Topic

Hey, was wondering if anybody here enjoyed solving Rubik's Cubes or similar variants. I myself have one and can actually solve it fairly quickly (less than 2 minutes in general. Trying to get it to less than a minute now). Already got myself one of the variants (i.e. the Megaminx), and am thinking about getting the Professor's Cube (the 5x5x5 cube).

you are sharp cookie I never could even get one side lined up.

I don't even know how people are capable of solving that stuff

I'd get one side lined up, but then when I'm totally invested in doing the other side...I'd forget that arranging that part would un-align the one I just did... which caused me to throw the cube out the window in a fit of anger.

I then proceeded to punch the wall and thrash my room.

#%@#$ rubiks cube, make's me so angry. Just thinking about that cube mocking me is triggering me...

an infernal cube invented by a possibly infernal man.

I remember having one called "Pyramix" which was basically the same idea but with a 4-sided triangular pyramid instead of the cube. I think it must have been generally easier that the Rubik's Cube cause I was actually able to solve that one. Another I had was Rubik's Magic which is a bit harder to explain but was also a lot simpler than the Cube.

This summarizes well how I view the cube as well. I never solved it. Didn't really find it very amusing either.
I liked the little sounds it made though when I turned a part. And I liked how it looked and felt.
