Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

20 moves is all very well, but finding them and executing them is bloody hard.

I can't seem to get it done in under 90 seconds, never mind 20 moves...

I found peeling em off and re-applying was quite effective.

I can't believe it can be done in that amount of moves

Impossible

Even the geeks at school that could do it took more moves than that

Yeah, but they didn't occupy 35yrs worth of computer programming to do it.

The article suggested that the most moves a human brain could cope was was about 40.

You can pop off the centre cover of each side an unscrew the thing, reassemble it correctly, screw it all back up, re-attach the centre covers, then put it in a safe, bury the safe in a landfill site and never ever touch the darn thing again.

Well, to be fair, it was Google's supercomputer that declared 20 moves was the minimum amount, God's Number as it's known. I'd like to see a human do it for real though.

Yeah, I had to own up cause he was one of the ones who times himself to complete it, so when he asked me to scramble it up for him I thought I'd make it that little harder, took him just 5 mins to realize what I'd done, the brainiac!

Update : Having spent the last 15 hours, trying to solve this puzzle, and keeping an accurate track of moves made, i am now *un*happy to report that :

The maximum number of moves made to solve any position is somewhat in execss of 6,127.

A blindfolded silhouette, do you think that will work?

Update : Having taken the good ladies advice, i can now announce that i completed the puzzle in only 3 turns.

May i take the blindfold off now?
