Contest

Cube2Cash
Hello everyone,

The Houston Cubing Association is starting a new Cube2Cash program, in which donated cubes are given away to cubers (just like you) and all the collected money will be given to the
Ronald Mcdonald House Houston The cubes that are being given away are 4 Type A I cubes, generously donated by the Haiyan Zhuang, current World Record holder of the 3x3 Blindfold solve and the webmaster of http://www.cubehaiyan.com

How the Contest works:


There are 4 cubes that are going to be given away in the contest. That means that you have 4 chances to win a Type A I cube (
1st 10 people only, everyone else gets 2). Each entry is only $2. You can pay by cash or by PayPal. If you want to pay by cash, please PM or email me, and I will give you my home address. Mail the money to my address, and PM or email me with your name, amount sent, address, and email. If you choose to pay by PayPal, send the payment via PayPal and PM or email me your name, your email, and the amount sent. The PayPal address is hcainfo@sbcglobal.net. PayPal users: In the statement, mention that this is a charity event organized by the Houston Cubing Association. After receiving your payment by either cash or PayPal, I will assign you a specific number and inform you that I have received your payment. PayPal users: if you do not receive a confirmation email/ PM in 48 to 72 hours, I probably did not receive your payment and your entry will not be counted (for mail payments it may take some time for the mail to get to me, so it could be 2 or more weeks depending on where you live). Please PM or email me again asking me if I got your payment if enough time has elapsed ( Paypal: 48 to 72 hours and Mail: 2 or more weeks depending on where you live).

After the contest is over ( The date set right now is
July 6th), I will film the drawing of the winners and put it on my YouTube Channel. I will use my calculator to generate random numbers and will choose the 8th number generated as the winner. I will do this 4 times to get all the winning numbers. Please note that if you win one cube, you cannot win another one.

Have fun and thanks for your support!


-Aditya Dargan, Founder and President of the Houston Cubing Association


P.S. My email is aditya(at)cubegeek(dot)net if you prefer to email me rather than using PM on the forum. Thank you, Mr. Haiyan Zhaung for donating the cubes.

Anthony Searle's new NAR multi-blind

As you may know Anthony Searle has just recently broken the NAR( North American Record) for muti-blind in competition. He solved 5 cubes blindfolded in about 47 minutes flat. That is just plain amazing, I mean like not everyon is going aroud breaking records all the time. So as I was saying, Anthony is a speedcuber who was born in Belize and he now lives in Texas. He is a cool guy and one of my cubing friends. So you are going like yeah, Anthony is a beast. Well, he is. He is good at blindfoldcubing, and speecubing. He is going for OH( One-handed) as well. If you don't know, Anthony is the only cuber from Belize, so basically he has like 10 National records, and 1 Continental.

 

It is not that great, but hey, I do not even have 1 National record( yet ;) The "pros" of cubing ( Like Ville, Erik, Yu Nakijima) have like what 10 World Records? That is amazing. Let's see what else. Oh , yeah, I love Anthony reaction. I jumped out my chair while watching it. Sadly for Anthony, it could have been WR( World Record), but he missed it by about a minute. Then Kai Jiptner comes along and blows the record out of the water. He solved 10 cubes blindfolded in less than 1 hour. Oh, and if you don't know aht multi- blind is, it is where all the 3x3 cubes are scrambled( You tell them how may you want to solve) You memorize, and then solve them ALL in one go. Enough talk now, let us see Anthony owning those cubes :)

 

 

See? I told you Anthony freake out! :) I love how he forgets something on the third cube and comes back to it. This is just simply amazing and mindblowing. Last time I checked, he uses letters and roman rooms to memo, and M2 for edges, and Old pochmann corners( I hope I spelled that right)
