[TalkingWithMyCola]

badmephisto, your vids about speed cubing are great, but i was just wondering, on your website for the olls, can u also make them printable in black and white because i found a lot of websites with olls that i can print out in black and whtie, but for me your olls are the easiest to perform and thanks. Merry Christams!

[boffhaku]

badmephisto, you're one cool dude and an awesome teacher. Keep the faith man!

[Sejoisaac99]

i expected you to be a little older...

no offence..

[badmephisto]

i just shaved before making the video :D it makes me look very young. Should have kept my beard on, rawr

[amodelchucrut]

@badmephisto

I was just wondering about thissssssss its a pleasure to meet you. I've been inspired once again by your videos, learning more oll's and stuff

I owe you most of my cubing achievements, never said it b4, but thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you :)

Avg 5 33.45, pb 23.70 (here on youtube)

Greetings and major hugs from Buenos Aires, Argentina

[tannorn]

[crackgreenhoue]

[MrFamilyguy4ever]

[kdeorslsin11]

I'd pay money to have a negative 4 second solve :)

[7times7equals49]

Your voice does not match your face!

[badmephisto]

I have been told that already. Just something weird with this vid or something? I dont know. But I never got that in RL

[1BoyandAGirl]

Your cool xD

[badmephisto]

stop it! You're cool!

[1BoyandAGirl]

How about "We're Cool" =P hahas ^^

[JureXL]

"Ow, that actually was pretty good" I lol'd xD

& I added you on twitter :D (I'm pretty interested @ Science, but more on Physics than (general) Maths. And I love Computer scripting :D)(I'm @TheGentleOne btw.)

[tanapak123]

ROFL

[timmulholland]

ur hott

[badmephisto]

it would be ok if a girl said it :s

but thats just weird

[Nukoca]

Tim, I think your mom has been browsing Youtube on your account.

[chaosbird94]

ur funny...thx for the help with cubing. im still only a beginner with a best time of 50 seconds. i started again after i saw some vids of cubing... aparently i suk badly. i want to be as fast as you(sounds corny lol) but ima need a lot of practice and im gonna need to watch ur tuts. anyway. thx for the vids.

[gilder37]

i expected him to have longer hair, everyone is right by saying u dont look how u sound lol

[qvaddro]

Happy holidays to you, too! Hope you don't stop cubing, that would kind of suck...:(

And you could try the world domination one...

[badmephisto]

I'll never fully stop cubing, thats ridiculous. But I already stopped trying to get better.

[RuNeSCaPeR133]

make pen spinning video for a change!

[xXdaveXsuperstarXx]

I expected you to look more Caucasian.

[rook2222]

Z0MG. I thought I was the only one who figured out who you were:

I remember seeing you in a vid with Sarah Strong doing unofficial solves a while ago. Your voice and your hands (Lol, that's all we see in all your videos) seemed sort of familiar.

So I typed your name into the WCA and what do you know, you live in Canada. Not only that, you went to C3 in 2008. I compared the times you said you got in your C3 vid with your official times. Similar.

I'm not a stalker. I'm just....curious...

[Ryshu]

LOL

did u look up his SIN as well? xD

[faroeq33]

endfully I see your face. I taught you was scare to get raped or something

[lbordallo]

merry christmas man!!! from the philippines and united arab emirates!!

[refssux]

Love this vid!! funny guy haha~ Merry Christmas =D

[leandrobaltazar2407]

nice guy :D

[Taintain101]

your voice doesn't match your face very much, that's why people don't expect to see you the way you do :P

[badmephisto]

You know what... now that you mention it... I think you're right :s !

[yeeungseewah]

make some yo-yo video, i see a yo-yo on your table

[Halocuber]

Slovik  =D

[esquimalt1]

haha wow you're still alive?

[Halocuber]

@esquimalt1 , yes I am.

[KConny]

Hah, I would send you money if you made me 20 sec faster. :P

And btw, I've been trying to copy your AI walkers. But I ran into some trouble yesterday when doing the fitnessfunction. I think the friction is my problem. The creature contract it's muscle but just stays in the same spot. I just wanted to thank you for the funny programming project. ;)

[badmephisto]

I had all kinds of issues like that too. I cant remember how I solved them :s It was a strange project :p

[LeafyCubes]

Wow at the people who don't know what he looks like... his picture is on his website.

[badmephisto]

Not anymore :p I just took that part down. Forever. Mwhahaaa

[EYE2EYE3]

ya i can see why you didnt show your face. haha im joking

[theWestonian]

This is exactly what I thought you would look like!

[54321namJ]

After you hit the wall on the chair *looks down* "Did i break it?" LO

[ILCAC3]

Badmephisto finally shows his face! You're cool!

B-A-D MEPHISTO HEZ BAD YAAA

[Sharkbait173]

your face is rounder then i expected. That is a good thing dont worry

[Tortak39]

How do you pronounce your forename? PM Me :)) And please can you video you and your cubes and maybe talk about hybrid cubing?

[Tortak39]

wow I didn't expect you to look that that! Lol joking :) thought you'd have different eyes that's all, you should grow your hair down your feet

[christoph3r2112]

You are slowly losing your awesome accent

[mcmilad1]

[54321namJ]

Okay.......sigh

[shadoelement237]

I am so happy to see badmephisto!  Keep em coming kid!

[DonnieTheKing]

I'm cool with World peace, or world domination. I have some great plans!

[ozziehey5]

i thought you were asian!!, jaja mmm... anywho.. you made really good videos man.....

[Buggy793]

Yeah, I bet it is pretty awkward, people staring at you.

You do look like a pretty cool guy, by the way.

[Sa967St]

WHOAH THAT'S WHAT BADMEPHISTO LOOKS LIKE??? :O

lol jk

btw I'm pretty sure that people figured out who you were at Toronto Open Winter last year because of your accent :p

[stachuk1992]

Staring contest?

[GeoffB123]

Haha that was funny, I freaked out when I saw your face in the subscription box... Usually your thumbnail is of your desk.  Anyway, good for you for revealing yourself.

[l3xrun]

[WeiseGuy91]

[54321namJ]

Can you please make a more "easy" blindfold tutorial? Im having trouble following it . Dont be offended beacause i learned from you and you are the beast cube teacher on the internet

Merry Christmas,

54321namJ

[badmephisto]

@54321namJ naaaah. The first one already took me week of planning and 3 days of filming, I honestly can't do better. I could do SLIGHTLY better I think but its not worth it :s

[gerwin3232]

That was me i was starring at you when you were eating lol i also popped that 7x7 and you fixed it haha.

[badmephisto]

@gerwin3232 I VERY vaguely remember that. Lol ok, don't do that :D

[RealSpZ]

[6jiggy]

Haha! The end of this video was so funny! I laughed so hard when you smashed into the wall! =D

Anyway, it was good to see you post again. Merry Christmas, meph!

[badmephisto]

@6jiggy I thought the last few seconds were a little too silly. But I knew someone would probably find it funny. It was a hard call :p I'm usually more srs than that

[6jiggy]

Bah! Seriousness is overrated! Personally, I try and roll into a wall or pop up directly in front of someone at least twice a day.

[TheAccidentalFreak]

Lol vid. You're awesome.

[qazefth]

Haha, you look like my cousin. And yeah, I learn to speedcube from you. Thanks. :)

[Mayorkaman]

No....Seriously....I expected you to look different...like..the speed of your talking doesnt match your face....dont know how to explain it...

[sanchilz]

[mitchblahman]

[ghpenspinner]

Merry Christmas badmephisto!

[badmephisto]

@ghpenspinner Merry Christmas to you as well! I had to say "Happy Holidays" in the video to be politically correct, but Christmas RULES! rawr

[fona24]

"would anyone send me money if I promise I would make them 20 seconds faster" - Erik would!

[danny5534]

omg jizz  in my pants

[lposrggg]

i think you should just make videos like this one. You were pretty entertaining just talking to the camera.

[SpeedCubingCentral]

Your face has a thread on the forum!

[badmephisto]

@SpeedCubingCentral oh fuuuuuu.....

[SpeedCubingCentral]

Oh, and for cubing related vids, how about challenges?

[powershotman]

you are adorable !haha

[badmephisto]

@powershotman I'd prefer that came from a girl :s

[badmephisto]

@powershotman Indeed, that was my plan all along. Its so nice and shiny. i want to make love to it

[ThisIsWEB]

1 more thing XD

I stack cube as my own 'cubepod' too, it works well for small cameras.

[ThisIsWEB]

btw I've already seen your face several times (your old Canadian Cubing video, and that video of you at a competition...)

but regardless, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

And thanks for replying so effortlessly to all of these comments.

[badmephisto]

@ThisIsWEB yea I'm just sitting here solving the cube... new comment every 10 seconds entertains me. Worst part is that my iPhone is set up to immediately get all emails pushed to it, so right now its vibrating like crazy

[byorda]

You had to say all that to brag about your IPhone? =P

[FFRPianist]

Haha nice video. I liked your plans for this video. :-)

[byorda]

Hey meph, TioMario here, from the speedsolving forum. I'm glad you are still there, it would be nice if you show up more often. In the forum or here, at least to say hi.

Anyway, happy holidays for you too, take care and see you around.

PS: Thanks again for your tutorials here. And I red you helped a lot making the forum what it is now, so thank you for that too.

[treek0o]

wow u looked nothing like i would thought...thats good by the way.sadly i was the second viewer but i couldnt comment because it said i had an error

[badmephisto]

@treek0o See when you say thats good thats not good! Because that means you thought I looked weird in some way :D And I don't believe your crazy story about an "error". yea ok

[treek0o]

@badmephisto no i never thoguht that...i just thought you looked different. its not a story its that "an error occured" so i had to go and try something else then come back

[ThisIsWEB]

badmeFACEto!

lol Happy Holidays. :)

[badmephisto]

@ThisIsWEB lol. right. i think i get it. haha

:D

[rcnrcn927]

Teach Cross on Left or something totally random and abstract. just for fun, even if you don't know anything, make it up!

[h20polorules]

*whispers* I think that guy in the video is badmephisto...

[iasimp1997]

please catch up w/ everyone else. alot of people have stopped cubing. we cant lose the legendary badmephisto.

ps thank you for all your tutorials. theyre the best

[riffz]

Within first 10 minutes?

[badmephisto]

@riffz I don't know how but someone replied in less than about 5 seconds. Must have been a bot or something. Crazy!

[PotatoSpades22095]

i always thought you were asian because of your voice lol

[badmephisto]

@twistnturn44 Thats only because I JUST shaved. You should see me with my beard on

[billyandika3158]

@twistnturn44 you would say that at the first time you saw his face, but eventually you would really get used to his voice and face anyways, it's about adaptation.

[billyandika3158]

you're name is like telepathy

[badmephisto]

@billyandika3158 why would you assume its my name? :)

[billyandika3158]

andrej is your name right? why do you use mephisto anyways, your site faq doesn't tell much

[badmephisto]

@billyandika3158 I don't know. Its the internet! Everyone has a nickname. Also I just erased my site faq, or about me section, or whatever. Nobody cares, and even if someone does its stupid anyway

[honkngoose]

he says in a vid that he picked mephisto because of Diablo or something and that mephisto's pretty bad. lol

[antgrav]

Third forth or fifth.

[meatballsub1]

Happy Holidays!

[Kivencito]

5th

[NerdGradeA1]

HAHA SECOND!!!!! those comments are annoying

[billyandika3158]

it's beeen ages, but nevertheless, your videos rock.

[badmephisto]

@billyandika3158 it has been ages. /hug

[mangaloverme]

first!!

[badmephisto]

@mangaloverme holy shit that was fast. How did you do that?

[mangaloverme]

cubing skills are not only for cubes :)
