    Yeah, columns first is probably as stupid as solving 4x4 with OBLBL

    If I'm convinced I can get a similar or better movecount than with Roux then I will try after UKO for a month or so.
    (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

    Maybe a couple years, maybe not, but I'm definitely going to practice it, and possibly switch from Roux to this (or even get to the point of doing CFOP/Roux/Columns first depending on the scramble)
