Just wanted to come here to say what a great teacher you are. You absolutely hit the nail on the head about the other videos not clearly explaining what the steps are. With your clear instructions, I was easily able to solve the hedron, and more importantly I was able to understand what I was doing and why. This isn't just a series of moves to memorize, instead this is guidance on how to solve the puzzle that will last hopefully for a long long time. I know this video has been around for some time, but I wanted to thank you for taking the time to make it.

Other videos are sooo vague, I finally found this video and was able to solve it on my first attempt. I appreciate the length and detail, I was genuinely not annoyed in the slightest by the effort you made to make sure we understood the process. I think J perm's video was way too short, he just expected everyone to know the order to solve and the algorithms to use... This video is great! I got a megaminx for christmas and just now solved it for the first time thanks to this video.

I tried it with J perms video first, but i didn't even understand the step for the last 2 layers.

i've looked at so many tutorials and they're all so confusing but this one was so helpful!

[@nathanjdl]

Your method works! The final layer was the hardest, especially the third stage. It's easy to mess up the algorithm if not concentrating. I had to do this several times. It's also disconcerting when the middle pieces no longer match up during that process. Thanks again for your help.

awsum creations1 I get you Man it always happens to me! so your not alone man your not alone.

[@TraciCuber]

awsum creations1 I kept messing up my megaminx at the last part until I realized what I was doing wrong. After I oriented the color for the top corner piece I was forgetting the do D (the last move of the algorithm "R' D' R D"), and I just went on to the next corner that needed orienting and forgetting to do D each time. This scrambled part of the puzzle because I wasn't doing the algorithm correctly. For example, look at 36:41. After he gets the first grey corner matching he moves the bottom layer to D again.

THANK YOU for teaching this in a way that kind of uses mnemonics instead of just memorizing algorithms. I have trouble learning certain things, and mnemonics were the only way I was able to remember how to solve a regular 3x3x3 cube. I learned the same way for solving a pyraminx, and a 5x5x5. Now that I've got the hang of those, I got myself a megaminx... but everyone's tutorials ALL seem to involve memorizing algorithms. I just can't do that. Your tutorial is the first one I've been able to follow at all, so thanks very much. I'm looking forward to completing my megaminx for the first time :D

[@cassie.m.0723]

Thank you so much! I really wanted to learn how to solve a megaminx, and your tutorial was great at teaching me how to do it! My only concern is the unclearness of certain parts...... but they don't really cause any huge problems or anything. Thanks for the great tutorial! Keep up the good work!

[@brettstembridge2507]

I agree with the unclearness comment. For example, several times, ad nauseum he explains right anti-clockwise is referred to as right prime. However, at about 31:14 he turns the top anti-clockwise twice but says, "2 ups," opposite of what he did. The video has plenty of room for improvement. And what's with the fidgeting with the cubes? maybe their unnecessary presence is why he erroneously keeps referring to the megaminx as a cube. Also, It would have been better to explain terminology only once at the beginning. Never mind that orientate is not a word, he interchanges the verbs "position" and "orient." They are not interchangeable. Finally, if you can solve a cube, you should be able to get to the final layer of a megaminx the first time you pick it up.

[@PondScums]

This is by far the best tutorial i have seen on this dodecagon. Definitely recommend. Very easy to follow and actually tells you what steps to do with easy ways to remember it, such as the "Y" and the "W trail" and doesn't speed through it like most solving videos do. Personally, i find thinking of towards you and away from you easier than clockwise and counterclockwise for remembering purposes, if anyone needs help with that part of learning algorithms. :)

[@abesloan1797]

I am loosing it hear I have it almost done, but I cannot get the last corners to line up right. 3 are in the correct position and the other 2 are wrong. I run through the U R 2U' L' 2U R' 2U' L U Algorithm and it moves one of the ones in the right position and the 2 in the wrong. Is there something I can do to get out of this? It is like I found the one Parity Error no one has ever seen.

[@navsquid32]

This video actually takes the time to explain the strategy behind the solution. Once you know the strategy, it’s just a matter of making the proper moves.

[@lucdespatis7895]

You do talk a bit fast but BY FAR the best video out there. You actually explain HOW to do it but you also explain WHY... BRILLANT Thanks so much for doing those. You saved a M... from being but out in the trash.

[@someguywhocanfly]

Awesome tutorial man! Really like how thoroughly you explain things, and your way of remembering the algorithms is the same as mine so that really helped too. I'd read elsewhere that solving this was similar to the 3x3x3 and I couldn't understand that, but after seeing you go through it I picked it up and realised that all the algorithms are exactly the same! It's crazy! Thank you for such a well-explained tutorial, definitely the best I have found on youtube by a long shot.

[@MuzikBike]

A cube has 6 sides, and a dodecahedron has 12 which is 6x2, so that's the main similarity to me

[@someguywhocanfly]

That's true, I think the fact that it's a 3x3x12 is important too though. If you take a single corner of the megaminx, the edges away from it are 3 in length, so it's kinda like a regular 3x3x3 corner. I'm not sure of the specific but there is definitely some maths to back this up.
