Cube2Cash
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.

Haiyan Zhuang's new BLD WR : 47.22 seconds

This is just amazing. I mean who can be faster than Ville? Well this guy can. He beat the previous world record by a second. That is just ownage. He memorized for 15 seconds and then boom, he solves it crazy fast. I am happy for this guy, but Ville is obviously going to take the WR record back. Probably more than 5 seconds. The speedcubing community can expect a sub 30 blindfold time( Have you seen his sub-25 solve?). Ville has gotten better times than this; never in competition, though Ville and Haiyan aren't the only two guys who have the potential for the world record. Rowe Hessler is on it too. I checked his WCA profile and  found something strange; his bld solves are faster than his 3x3 speedsolve. I heard( heard lol) a rumor on speedsolving.com that he does bld in speedsolving. That is just messesd up.I can't say anything bad to him. I mean he has a WR; most cubers never will.
