So I recently got back to playing with the rubik's cube and after a few days id say im fairly good at it.

So my question is can anyone in here solve it and if so whats your record time?

Mines 1 min 30 seconds.

World Record is 9.18 seconds.

Every time I try to solve a rubik's cube I just end up making it worse.

Started playing with a 3x3x3 one at a friends house last thanks giving. Ended up as a kinda joke, and he got me one as my secret santa for xmas. Solved in, eventually after a few days. So as one of the billions of little gifts from my gf for my bday, she got me a 4x4x4. Funny thing another friend of mine spends more time playing with it than I do.
Hes amazing at them both now. Can't say I envy him though :P

I suck at the cube.
I can finish it with a booklet that came with the cube, but that's kinda cheating.
Without my booklet I'm lost thus my cube stays finished while dusting away.

theres been a trick to it now where you no matter what the pattern is you get it to a certain arrangement and after a couple of turns you got it. Just takes pratice to get it really fast

yeah mines was somewhere around 1 minute.


Oh and what did you do to get yours so slippery?

mines pretty lubricated, since i dunked it in baby oil, and opened a peice of the cube and squirt lotion in there.

They were the trend when I was 12 years old, along with platform shoes and bellbottoms. I bought one but I lost it, i've been wanting to get a new one for a while but I don't know where.

I can usually do it under 3 minutes, but I used the layer method. I would do the corner method, but that's so much harder T.T
