Rubiks = puzzles that take less than 10 minutes to complete.

So my dad came to me this weekend holding a Rubik's Magic that's been stowed away in our basement since at least 1986. From then it took me 1 day to understand it and 1 day to master it. By the end of Sunday (today) it only takes me 10 seconds to solve it. For those who dont know a Rubik's Magic is a set of 2 rows of 4 black squares bound together that works similar to the toy jacob's ladder. On one side are the pieces of 3 rings which when in the right positions and order are unconnected and on the reverse are similar patterns but with three rings that link. starting in the unlinked the goal is to link the back rings. Sound simple? Infact it is. it takes little to no time for it to be solved when one knows what to do. from is 2x4 shape it becomes a v shape with a 2x2 square with two sets of 2x1 squares on sides 90 degrees from each other. This now brings my collection of rubiks puzzles I can solve to 4 being the cube, mini cube(2x2x2), the revenge(4x4x4), and the magic.

Ok so it wasn't a video game post. I know it wasn't in my posting nature but that's all I have to say right now... I'm just filling the space until my fellow contributors post.

let the next post happen soon,
