Rubix fucking cube

[onmybroomstick]

I've been sat for hours!!!! How the bloody hell do you solve these???? My son is expecting me to have mastered this by morning. I can't even make sense of it with Google. Aibu to beg someone to make this easy for meeeee

[Jonsnowsghost]

I watched a YouTube video and that helped me! Although I had to watch it multiple times...

[clairethewitch70]

I solved mine in the 1980's by removing and replacing the stickers into the right positions.

[Pixel]

When they first came out I knew the 'formula' and could do them really quickly. Can't remember it now though sorry!

[Patriciathestripper1]

Yes I did it! What you do is drink several glasse of wine then get a nail file and prize the coloured stickers off and stick them back in the right order

[onmybroomstick]

Funnily enough the only suggestion I've had so far is from a friend on her second bottle of wine telling me to take the stickers off, unfortunately there not stickers on it so it's not even an option

[HermioneJeanGranger]

I used to take them apart and re-build them

[harderandharder2breathe]

There's a formula (I don't know it), and I expect google and you tube will help

[TheNewSchmoo]

Take the middle one on a side edge out.... They then all come out and you can stick them back in the right place

2 glasses of wine in.....

[RNBrie]

If you post it to me I'll do it for you

[onmybroomstick]

Google baffled me. I'm going to try YouTube. I'm going to have to take it apart aren't I

The top video (and parts 2&3) will teach you all you need to know, check the comments too for the list of algorithms.

[LouisevilleLlama]

Is it a new one? I always fear old ones I haven't seen put right incase someone has moved some of the blocks

[HSMMaCM]

It doesn't matter if someone's moved some blocks. It'll still work

[onmybroomstick]

Even YouTube isn't making it easy. What is wrong with me 😳

[TondelayaDellaVentamiglia]

i used to be able to do them too!

I might get one and see if it all comes flooding back! :o

[DeathStare]

Watch this week's Death in Paradise!

[AshesandDust]

Bin that one and buy a new one

[modelthroughit]

Followed this on Christmas Day with my niece's one. Solved it :)

Stage 3 just isn't happening

[PinkSwimGoggles]

give it dc in the morning to sort by tomorrow evening?

[Chrysanthemum5]

DS joined a club at school for Rubik cube (he's very cool 😀) and they gave him a formula to follow which solves it every time. Apparently it hinges on getting the white cross? YouTube must have tutorials.

[onmybroomstick]

I get the cross and then the whole thing goes to bloody pot. I'm getting increasingly more frustrated at the damn thing what have my Saturday nights become

[cookieswirls]

There is the solution pdf online. I learnt from that it's really easy once you know how

[Thingmcthingyface]

Solution PDF is the way forwards! Takes about 10 mins with that!

[OhYouBadBadKitten]

I can do it :D
