    Ya misoriented centres are cool
    I was discussing stuff like that with Pandacuber a while ago

    Are the tricks mostly to do with EO+ULUR?

    (a^b)^c = a^(b c) e^(2 i pi c floor(1/2-(Im(b log(a)))/(2 pi)))
    I've been cubing for only just over 2 years and I feel old already

    including a few easy LSE cases to recognize... yep!

    thought about having UF/UR stuff in there also, however it is a bit hard to recognize with NM centers. (don't stand out as much as UL/UR)

    Hi There!

    I'm using Roux since ages (more than 6 years, ugh, yeah, I started it at the end of 2005, switching from Petrus), but I'm not really that fast-learner... My average is now about 17.5 seconds (breakdown is about 11-2.5-4). I'm thinking about improving my partial color-neutrality. Currently I can start with 4 different blocks: White or yellow blocks on left with always red or orange on bottom (so my CMLL corners are always orange or red on top). The second block has always the same color on bottom as the first one (no "rotation"). What is your suggestion for next step? Or this is enough, and I have to improve it in an other way?
    Currently my F2B is considered "fast" when it is about 9 sec. I also try to minimize the cube rotation to zero; I rotate it one times occasionally.

    Thanks!

    Try improving f2b.
    Use as least moves as possible and try to see whole FB during execution so you could solve it sub2 and SB in 3-4 seconds. Your cmll and lse seem pretty good, but blocks should be a lot quicker, I wouldn't suggest color-neutral solving if you are not all great with the most familiar colors. Improve f2b to solve them sub6.

    Not bad, not bad at all.
