So, I don't knwo if taht has been brought up before, but the search function did not find any matches.

I just began with it like 3 days ago and it's so much fun. My Best time is 2:05 but I'm not using any of those speedcubing methods...but I'll try something like that in the future I think. I'll need another cube for that though. I'm currently using the Method from alchemistmatt.com, a really simple method. Anyone here doing speedcubing and can give some basic info or somethig like that? Anyhow, please share all your thought about this subject.

I personally haven't solved it yet. I am using the steps from the packet given with the "25th anneversary Rubiks Cube" and I can solve up to the last step, where the bottom corners arein the right spot but not oriented correctly. I'll check out that site though.

I have! My best time is 52 seconds. My school randomly started getting into them and we have a Rubik's Cube club. It's kinda silly, but it's fun.

And if you're looking for speedcubing, you can use this website:

While I do not cube on my own (I don't have the time right now), one of my drum corps buddies routinely solves them in well under a minute, if not under 30 seconds. It's fun to watch, and I may actually pick up the hobby over this summer!

Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all.

My fastest time is 58 seconds. But on average it's usually around 2-3 minutes.
