The Noodle Compound V. 2.0

Re: Red Alert! (Spring/Summer OT Thread)

My Cubesmither stickers and tiles came today! I'm so happy ^^

As for sub-30, that usually takes a while as it's a pretty huge milestone for a bunch of cubers I think, but not as much so as the sub-20 average.
Warming up does help, but essentially it's pretty much all in the practicing and how you see each situation and how quickly you recognize it. My solves tend to get pretty constant after 10 warm-up solves or so.

You should start posting vids of your solves for us Turb, then you can say you have skillz and are teh master cuber of the Community.

Not to mention a new and updated version of your old "Shako" avatar with a cube in it's place :p



 
Re: Red Alert! (Spring/Summer OT Thread)

If I remember correctly, KOW was also a cuber, and I think he was a fair bit faster than I am. There was a Rubik's Cube thread made a while back and I think at that time I wasn't into cubing, I just knew how to solve it.
Anyways, I am in no way teh master cuber. I'll just stick to my pen spinning prowess ^^

Okay never mind, I just searched up that thread, and KOW said his record was 36 seconds. It's probably better now if he kept hus cubing up, but he's been better than me until just recently I guess. My average is 3 seconds better than his, but my personal best is 26 seconds.

Alright, here, I finally became non lazy.
I took this video uh... a couple weeks ago I think. Anyways, it's sideways because I don't have a good camera, and I don't plan on using my webcam for anything. I held my phone in my mouth while shooting this.
It's actually pretty slow now that I look at it. I definitely could have gone faster on spotting the F2L pairs...
This was well before I got my Cubesmith stickers and tiles too, so the cube looks and feels like crap.

Impressive Ken.

Now do it with only one hand.
 
Re: Red Alert! (Spring/Summer OT Thread)

I dunno, it seems like me posting that video is getting me some flack, so I'm just gonna remove it now.
First that video I posted got one star, and then some dude posted on my profile saying I was bad.

That was me and it was a joke :/ I thought you'd figure out it was me, plus i've been following a pattern, last but one comment was "nub!".

Wasn't meant to offend you :coffee:

My excuse is that i'm sick and I had to go to work anyway :)

Wait.. what? You work?



 
Re: Red Alert! (Spring/Summer OT Thread)

Whose bright idea was it to move the nav bar to the right of the screen and make it twice as big?

To be completely honest, I actually kinda figured it might've been you, but there are some many Mikes that have access to the internet, so I didn't want to just make that assumption.
As for the nub comment, it was left by IntelligentX =/

I guess I just kinda took offense cause that video got rated with 1 star, which sucks and then I getted that comment soon afterwards.

I KNOW!! What the hell is that jazz?!
I honestly hope there's a way to either turn it off or at least make to go back to the right side, and back to its original size...



 
Re: Red Alert! (Spring/Summer OT Thread)

If you want Ken, I'll go rate your vid 5 stars to even out the 1 star. :azn:
 
I was holding one of the gerbils a few minutes ago and found myself thinking about taking my paladin through SM. Which is odd, both because she's not quite high enough yet (24) and it's been several days since I played.

Which also made me realize I have points into a talent she doesn't really have a use for (str) since she does holy damage and not physical damage.

Kind of miss the druid, but she's stuck at 56. :p


Edit:
Servers are back up, that'll be waiting in the mail for you. I also say you are to blame for me even thinking about the game. :p
