Same here. The "Pyraminx" or whatever it was called was my thing. There was another snake-like one with trapezoidal segments that I was pretty good at too.

Oddly enough, I seemed to do better with the 4x4 cube than the 3x3 cube. Those never really caught on in popularity though. I think I solved the 4x4 one a couple of times but didn't really "get" the algorithm to do it - it was more of a brute force approach as I recall.
