Step-by-Step Beginner's Instructions on how to Fix a Rubik's Cube!

By -

Many people have been struggling on how to fix a rubik's cube, and i am here to fix all of your problems! You barely need anything for this, just a plain rubik's cube and PATIENCE (VERY IMPORTANT)

The picture below are the keys to understand the steps (Please refer to this if you forget):


Lets begin!



Step 1: Solve the white cross

- Start with the white middle block facing upwards
- Try to place the edge pieces into a cross-shape
- As a result, you should have something like the picture on the left

Algorithm:

- If you see a white spot on the bottom face of the cube, all you have to do is:
 (R, R)
- If you see something like the picture on the right, you'll have to do:
  (Ri, U, Fi, Ui)

That's it! You have completed the first step of you Rubik's cube!


Step 2: Solving the Corners

- Start with the white-cross facing upwards
- Look for the corner pieces
  (It has white with another two different colours)
  it should appear at the bottom face of the cube, if it is, do             Algorithm A
- If the corner piece is a the top face, do Algorithm B
- As a result, you should have something like the image on the left


Algorithm

A- If you have something like the picture on the upper right, do this:
     (Ri, Di, R, D)
B- If you have something like the picture on the bottom right, do this:
     (Ri, Di, R)
     Then repeat Algorithm A

Step 2 Completed!



Step 3: Solve the Middle Layer

- Flip your rubik's cube so that the white face is at the bottom
- Check the colour of the edges and think of where to place it
  (To the Left or Right)
- It should appear at the top face of the rubik's cube but if it isn't,
 just do one of the sequence below depending on which side it is at

- By now you should know where one of the blocks should go, left or right. If it's on the left, do Algorithm L. If it's right, do Algorithm R
- As a result, you should have something like the picture on the top-left corner

Algorithm

L- If you need to move the top block to the left side, do:
    (Ui, Li, U, L, U, F, Ui, Fi)
R- If you need to move the top block to the right side, do:
    (U, L, Ui, Li, Ui, Fi, U, F)

BOOM! You're done with Step 3!



 Step 4: Solve the top layer (Yellow Cross)

- Start with the yellow face on the top layer and the white on the
bottom
- If you already have a yellow cross on the top layer,
 proceed to the next step (focus on the yellow edges
- If you have only the yellow middle, do

Algorithm 1
-If you have a "L" shaped thingy, do Algorithm 2
- If you have a line across, do Algorithm 3

Yellow middle
"L"
Line Across

Algorithm

 1- For only the yellow middle----(F, U, R,  Ui, Ri, Fi)
 2- For the "L" shaped thingy----- (F, U, R, Ui, Ri, Fi)
3- For a line across-----------------(F, R. U, Ri, Ui, Fi)

YAY! Almost there!




Step 5: Positioning the Yellow Corners (HARDEST PART)
Note: I broke this step down to 2 steps

Refer to this for letter
positioning
Hold your rubik's cube with the yellow cross facing upwards. Twist the top face until at least two corners are correctly positioned. If all four corners are in the correct position, move on to Step 6.

Place correct corners at either A,B or Diagonally.
If positioned correctly, please do: (Ri, F, Ri, B, B, R, Fi, Ri, B, B, R, R, Ui)
If the corners are positioned diagonally, do it twice.
When you're done, you should have something like the picture on the upper left

YES! YOU HAVE DONE THE FIRST HALF... of the hardest part...



Step 6: Positioning the Yellow Edges correctly (HARDEST PART)

If 1 edge is correct and 3 edges are incorrect, orient the cube so that the correct edge is in the right place. If all 4 is incorrect, do the either sequence below depending on whether it needs to go clock-wise or counter-clock wise.
Before doing the sequence below, check if the edges needs to go clock-wise or counter-clock wise.

Clock wise- (F, F, U, L, Ri, F, F, Li, R, U, F, F)
Counter-Clock wise- (F, F, Ui, L, Ri, F, F, Li, R, Ui, F, F)



Thank You for reading this blog! REMEMBER: Patience will help a lot.
To memorise, just keep repeating the steps over and over again until you get used to it!

Good Luck!

Everyone likes posting.  I think our most committed blogger is Jessica Gan, closely followed by A Peculiar Sort Of Author, then Beyourself_Xy, Elliethatnerd, Awesomeness Burrito (Who only has 11 posts), Xuan Pan, Tiff_Awesomeness, Ada Lee, and Annie Jakes-McKay. I want to say thank you to all of our readers and commenters, people who subscribe and laugh, and most of all, I want to thank my fellow bloggers for making this blog an enjoyable atmosphere. I just want you bloggers to know: Milestones are not resting places. It means, once we have reached 200 posts, we don't have to stop! And readers, if you count all of our posts, and realise that there are less than 200, I'm counting drafts as well.  Hahaha!  ðŸ˜ˆ  ðŸ˜¡ ! I dare not post this afterwards, because someone else will post the 200th and it won't be this post. This post is kind of bad. I really want to thank everyone for their support, and everything!

I Have No Idea What To Name This Post

By Anonymous -
The mist hung over us like a blanket, it's cold fingers probing the goosebumps on our arms.  Clumps of heather stuck out of the ground.  I was furiously polishing my glasses; the vision through them was distorted and unclear.  The mist, again, the heavy atmosphere it created, digging into my thoughts no matter how I tried to remove it. Having already shouted myself hoarse, I curled up into a tiny ball, pretending I was in the warmth of my cosy and comfortable home. The girl looked so helpless, unable to rise from the earth.  The mist was relentlessly pelting against us, so I felt the need to help her. A form appeared out of the swirling mist.  It seemed ten feet tall, but I'm sure it was anything but.  The form bent over me, I could now see that it was about my height.  Still, I couldn't help but cringe away from anyone touching me.  I can't remember the last time I let someone willingly touch me.  It seemed like such a long time ago.  It was such a long time ago.

How To Use Chinese Brush Pen (Demonstrations By Me)

See the Chinese brush pen is this complicated thing you use to make Chinese characters. This is what a Chinese brush pen looks like: So guys, this is a Chinese brush pen. Holding a Chinese brush pen is harder than looking at it. You have to use smartness in the mind... And that is my fabulous psychology in brush pens. Bai!!! Just joking... This is how you hold the Chinese brush pen:                                                                                                    That is my hand, holding the brush.  So, I hope you've learnt alot. JK.  Let's continue.... The picture below has demonstrated me having written my Chinese name on a piece of paper:                                           These are the Chinese strokes you need to know:                                                  1. Heng 2. Shu 3. Pie (pronounced pee-yeh) 4. Na 5. Dian So that's the Chinesey stuff. I
