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

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

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

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

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

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

I used to take them apart and re-build them

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

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.....

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

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.

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

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

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

i used to be able to do them too!

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

Watch this week's Death in Paradise!

Bin that one and buy a new one

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

Stage 3 just isn't happening

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

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.

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

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

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

I can do it :D
