Hey y'all - anyone still here? :)

I do cubing just for fun - no world records here, eh? These are my three newest cubes:

  • 4x4x4 - I can't remember which one exactly, but it's a lot of fun to solve. Not magnetic

  • Megaminx - YJ YuHu V2 Megaminx Magnetic

  • 1x1x1 - 1x1 Speed Cube - Black

The megaminx is messing with my head but I will keep at it. Any tips would be appreciated.

That 1x1 man, I'm leaving saving that for last, eh. :)

People keep saying that but I'm still struggling to map the f2l move to the 12 sides of this thing. It seems important the order in which I solve each pair. Plus just having the 12 colors to deal with, and I'm red green color blind. I need to spend more time with it still.

What I do is : insert corners first, then edges. Corners are easy. For edges, I do an insert "beginner"-style (URU'R' U' F'UF). (Since it can breaks the adjacent side, I pair the edge with the corner on a higher layer, that is doing 1 turn on the face). Just experiment with it, I’m sure it will "click" at some point ;)
