No picture today, just a question. Like, my brain doesn’t work well when I gotta keep the center squares fixed in place, I’m almost always rotating the cube around.

Adding dice dots to it totally throws off the conventional algorithms, but in a good way. Often I’ll use green or blue as my top side, but other times I’ll use white or yellow as my top side. It just depends on the puzzle.

And yes I’m a wrist turner.

    Well, standard notation includes ways to annotate middle slices and wide turns. And standard notation doesn’t care about colors. Not sure if that helps? https://jperm.net/3x3/moves

      Oh, one other detail about my modded cube…

      Which side which color is on absolutely matters! Note that the only two edge pieces with dots/holes are on the yellow side (6). So the nifty dice dot patterns don’t work right if you don’t have the cube oriented right.

      Thank you!

      I’m still learning cubing, but with my modded cube with dice dots. I’m no expert cuber (yet), but I’m looking to learn the cube plus document neat dice dot patterns on top of that.

      My modded cube is backwards compatible, but the dice dots make it extra interesting within the subset of the combined puzzles.
