over_cloxLast night I successfully reassembled my Rubik's Cube after multiple pieces suddenly popped loose, in mid-puzzle pattern...
if you put it back together randomly often times you will just get a spun corner, in which case you can just spin it back. what cube is that though?
It’s basically a worn out cheapo version of a wannabe speed cube I got from a flea market for $4 LOL!
The dot holes are my own custom mod though, when fully solved the dots are in a left handed 1-6 die (singular of dice) pattern. I have previous posts on this community following my experimental journey.
Apparently I’ve practiced certain puzzle sequences so many times that I can reassemble a busted cube mid-puzzle and just keep going…
they have good speedcubes for around $4-5 online if you know what to look for. the die pattern is neat, ive always enjoyed unique cubes/puzzles.
This one started off as a pretty nice feeling speed cube, but I really didn’t expect much for $4. Whatever, I’ve apparently done wore the thing out now LMFAO!
I’m not disappointed, hell I wasn’t even good at cubing as a kid, I only picked it up again last year when I got a bug up my ass to do the dice dots mod.
Note: I’ve tried both left handed and right handed die patterns, the left handed pattern lends itself to a proper Rubik’s Cube by far, patterns are much more intuitive.
often times you will just get a spun corner
The odds of an incorrect corner rotation are 2/3.
The odds of a flipped edge are 1/2.
The odds of two edges swapped is 1/2.
Together, there is a 1/12 chance that a randomly assembled cube will be solvable.
damn that is interesting, i usually just pop the pieces back when i realise there are any out of place. it almost always ends with a spun corner lol. i now see why.
I knew exactly where I was with the puzzle though, carefully snapped all the pieces back in their appropriate mid-puzzle positions, and managed to successfully solve it from there
Impressive, nicely done!
