Guess who got a 5x5 rubiks cube for Chanukah?
I DID!
It's awesome! Even though it takes forever and it still needs to be broken in, it's still awesome! I just solved it for the first time, with only minimal help from the internet! And it only took me about 20 minutes! Yeah, so I need to get faster 
Can any of you match my super awesome cubing skills?
BTW my best time for the regular cube is 43 seconds, and it's three minutes six seconds for the 4x4
OMGWTHPIZZA???????
NOOOOO! 600 second rule!!!!!!!!
Back. For now. Maybe.

Wow....I can't even solve the regular ones, let alone a 5x5 one. Your way ahead of me in that aspect.

I've been working on an origial Rubik's Cube (1970-something) for about 4 years. 
Offending strangers since 2010.

Re: Guess who got a 5x5 rubiks cube for Chanukah?
Once on TV I saw this Japenese guy who could solve a cube in a matter of seconds. Once you get it once, you can do it again,throughthefire. For the rest of you, don't give up. 
Well, actually, your only hope is to think that it's POSSIBLE. I had a cube key chain once and it tok me so long to do it I broke it.
I AM SO GOOD AT IT XD
Happy Channukah!

XD, that reminds me of the time I was solving my own cube keychain and it broke while I was twisting the pieces.

My brother is better at solving those things than I am. He can solve one in under three minutes if he's focused enough. Sometimes he gets addicted to solving them, though: once we were in a toy store and he saw a metallic-colored Rubik's Cube on display - he refused to leave the store until he finished solving it.

I can solve a 3x3 consistently in under a minute, my personal record is 33 seconds. I haven't tried any of the larger cubes yet, but I might get one for Christmas.

Actually, I think I'll create a tutorial on the forums for solving a cube for all of you who can't do it!

Re: Guess who got a 5x5 rubiks cube for Chanukah?
@Tuffghost, no not really most people can do it in around infinity minutes. if you can solve it, it's pretty good. but compared to professionals, it's pretty bad.
@glitchsprite-they make rubik squares?!?! O_O
29 seconds for 3x3x3, 39 eyes closed after examining for 10 seconds.
102 seconds for 4x4x4, and 158 seconds for 5x5x5.
Just kidding. Anyone who does it that fast should get a life... Unless they do it as a job...
I can do every rubiks cube in less than: infinity seconds.

dude do you think i was talking about professionals
i was talking about people who figure it out and then stop caring about it i can do it in around a minute anyway because i keep having to do the same things for the 4x4x4
plus you say you cant do it anyway so who are you to call peoples times bad :OOO

Re: Guess who got a 5x5 rubiks cube for Chanukah?
Is Chanukah a misspelling? Or is there a Chanukah and a Hanukkah?

Well, the english spelling is different in many places, but I like to spell it "Chanukah" because it's the closest to the hebrew word.
Oh, and I just timed myself on the 5x5x5. I got 10 minutes, 41 seconds!
