Ok first off: whats with all the viaolent smileys?
secondly: HI!!! I'm MechaTech84 (Mecha for short) I have always loved rpg's and I taught myself how to program in TI-basic. (well, I taught my self the basics, school gets kinda boring sometimes...) I can do the rubik's cube, if you have any questions about that, see my siggy.
Just thought I'd introduce myself --Mecha

Edit: I didn't want to double post: I have already learned a lot more basic from some tutorial somewhere else, I just wanted to say I taught some of it to myself.... I should show my work.... I'll post an attachment later....

PS. Please use the "Edit" button instead of double posting next time. ;)
Oh yes, and if Spelli doesn't come, peanuts are my responsibility.

should loop.... just a suggestion but it would look a lot cooler.So, how did you guys like the vids? It took a while, and it was about a year and a half ago that I finished Bob8.... so there are a few GOTO's unfortunantly... but whatever, there is only like 1 or two.... That's because I didn't know how else to do the scene selection back then...
By the way, just to clear up any issues later on, I am a boy, just cause it's hard to tell over the web...
@TheStorm: Thanks! I am currently trying to find people to help me on a project: a program that can teach someone how to solve the rubik's cube (If you look on calcgames you'll see a different project, but I decided to change it.... This seems more useful. As the saying goes "Catch a fish for a man, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime." Same basic idea. Plus at my school, I started a fad.... At one time, if you walked down the hall, you would pass about 7 rubik's cubes on the way.... and that was just one hall! It was pretty sweet. It also kept me on top of my game: I wanted to be number one. I would challenge people to see if they could do it with two hands faster than I could do it with 1 hand... The sad part is, most of the time I won....
This link is a program I am working on that will help me learn the last layer orientation method of the Fridrich method (just google "Fridrich method OLL") It's not done yet, but I posted it anyway. BTW this is not the method that will be taught in the upcoming program.

Welcome to Omnimaga!
Don't worry too much about the peanuts, it's an Omnimaga tradition (well actually mostly a Spelli tradition)

I then stop talking in third person and state that I have no idea who spelli is.

Oh and spelli is spellshaper (he uses the spelli screenname on IRC), he post quite often on the forums. :)

anyway, what method do you use to solve the cube? i do only the petrus, but my friends know friedrich and Rue (however that's spelt).
Post by: MechaTech84 on June 15, 2007, 05:44:00 am
*Ahem* I use a very simple method, I'll look it up and post a website. (if I can find it, I haven't been able to find my exact method most of the times I have looked) I am interested in learning complete Fridrich method, but I'm kinda not that dedicated.... whatever... learning Petrus method would also be good, but when I go to the website, I can't see the pictures, and my parents won't let me download most stuff, so I haven't asked yet...
I also know enough random moves to be able to solve it a different way, It isn't effecient for me, but It is different. I know a 3-corner cycle, and a 3 edge cycle. I can orient 2 or 3 edges without messing anything else up, the same with 2 or 4 edges. Using those moves, I can solve the cube all edges first or all corners first. It is solely used for showing off to my friends at school :P
I have to go now, I'll post the website later...
