I hate it. I don't get it.
But I love it because I'm trying. I've followed the youtube tutorial.

ahaha share your experiences please

I used to try to solve it really really fast, but I failed. Never got under 30 seconds so I gave up, found a new hobby in drinking. :D

I know my friend on this site does it pretty damn fast, ask him for tips.

I can't even fill one surface yet...wow

To the ones who finished it: did you guys see tutorials/guides online or figure it out yourself?

I can solve the first two layers... but the last layer's algorithms are too complicated for me to memorize without much effort

yes, i can do it in around 1 minute. I figured out the first 2 layers myself and a friend showed me how to finish.
I win.

yayyyy rubik's cube
I can do it pretty fast with memorized algorithms but I don't teach them anymore. Last few people I taught all learned the intuitive approach. i find it more effective, since you basically just learn one 'concept' and apply it as you see fit to solve the cube however you like. Oh and it's more stimulating for the mind as well. Much more interesting than going "oh hey look, a line, I should do F (R U R' U') F' even though I don't know why!" Too bad there isn't any of those tutorials on youtube (afaik), so tough luck there.

you won't be as fast with intuitive method in sighted solving but ironically it happens to be one of the fastest methods for blindfold solving it. funny how that works

How do you solve a rubiks cube blindfolded?


yep just like raithed said, it's basically a 1-look solve. so you get to take 1 look at the cube to memorize its initial state (you're not allowed to make any moves while looking)
then close your eyes, do some moves, and when you open your eyes, the cube is solved. it's like magic!

and it's easier than it looks. In fact there's a person whose first rubik's cube solve was a blindfolded one

it's really not that hard tbh!

Clazz, if you just want to solve a rubik's cube though (as a one-time thing or whatever), i've heard good things about dan brown's youtube tutorial. If it's not the one you're already following, it'll be good.
here's the link to the first part

Hey yeah, I'm following that JeeJee. But I got 8/9 of the 9 surfaces.

But I think I did it wrong because
where there's the green surface i try to fill, on the other sides, should have

[] [] []

and a [] under the middle box

[] = box
and these boxes have the same color.

So if I'm looking from the top where theres the green, the front, left, right, and back have these four []

i can't get it...godamn im so bad at this T_T

hmm
I'm not sure what you mean
which step are you on? looks like you're doing the 4 corners of the first layer?
