    Well I got one today for my birthday, and I looked up a video on youtube on how to solve it. It didn't help me worth a crap for many reasons.

    So I want to know if there's anyone here who's really good at it that can like help me out and give me tips and tricks or whatever.

    How long have you just messed around with it? And you probably need to start by getting one side all the same color.

    the link i posted is by the guy who holds world record for fewest moves, not fastest time, thats the one i use and i like it, but it involves more watchign your cube than the other ones, where its like u just barely glance at one corner then spam algorithms and hack :P thats the fast super asian method ^_^
