    Your comics are the absolute best, mate.

    They changed how they make them so that they don’t have stickers anymore. I used to be brilliant at them, not now.

  3. Rob says:

    This one looks like one with stickers on it though, so no problem!

  4. @MrGHB: Can you still dismantle and reassemble them to solve?

  5. wendyw says:

    I once took two of the stickers off my brother’s one and swapped them over.
    He deserved it though.

    @Wendyw

    You can! I fool my people with that all the time, I’ll be working on a cube for a while, and then when nobody’s paying attention, I tear it apart and reassemble it and then be like “TADA!” and they’re like “WOW!”

    My best time so far is 1:25, but that’s pretty funny XD

  8. Lexis says:

    haha, one minute ten seconds is my record. People who cheat and pretend they can solve it are lame.

  12. Paint says:

    My best time is 7 seconds. beat that. e-peen + 9001.

    Seriously, how the fuck do you solve these things? There has to be some kind of trick I’m missing.

      Yes, you see, what you do, is move one row around, and then move it back, and claim you solved it. Brilliant in its simplicity, no?

  13. Jack says:

    There certainly are tricks. Patterns that allow you to move color blocks and store them, sort of.
    What I love about them is that the original three/three, like this one, has more possible positions then there have been seconds since the beginning of time.

  14. ty says:

    best time 48 seconds :P

  15. Philosopher-Dork says:

    @Jack: Assuming you know when the beginning of time is.

    Dammit I’ve become a troll.
    See Luke? Bickering is what happens when you’re niche audience is multidisciplinary.
    Clever mathematicians should never mingle with clever philosophers while sober. Bad things happen.
