RUBIK'S CUBE CHALLENGE

Tani has a unique proposal to offer you, which she knows you will accept.

As you know, the legendary Rubik's Cube is very near impossible. Tani has been trying to work on it for a very long time, and has never gotten close to finishing it.

In order to motivate this child genius, Tani asks your very generous souls to offer her a small donation when she finishes this impossible puzzle.

CONDITIONS:

1. No asking for help from anyone.
2. No looking for help in resources such as books or the internet.
3. No unsticking stickers (NOTE: Tani's Rubik's Cube is very old, and when she was very little, she tried to unstick stickers. This is why the Rubik's Cube is in a very bad condition. However, she got frustrated, and did not manage to move any--it is now virtually impossible to unstick them. If you wish, you may lend Tani your Rubik's Cube so that she may use a new one.)
4. Expiration date: ________ (your choice)

Tani's dad is so certain she will never solve this puzzle, that he has already offered $10 for her completion, under the above conditions. Will you do the same?

If you doubt Tani's truthfulness, Tani will take a picture of the Rubik's Cube when scrambled, and by the end (if she manages to finish it) of the finished cube.

All proceeds from this challenge--though Tani herself doubts she will complete it--will go towards the purchase of an iPod Nano, which she has been wishing for for a long time, but is too expensive to receive for Christmas.

If you also wish to do this same challenge, with all of the same conditions, Tani will sponsor you with the same amount of money--providing you have never completed the cube before--and whoever finishes first will obtain the sum.
