Big thanks to @xyzzy for creating the Kilominx scramble generator, and for your help with getting the scrambles to work for me.

y u no random state
I apologize for my ignorance, but what are you trying to ask? If you are wondering what scrambles I am using for this, I am using the first four lines from a Megaminx scramble and adding the x2 at the end of each line, if you are okay with that. If you have a scramble generator that I can use or that you know of please let me know and I will switch it out with the ones that I posted.
This is my first time creating a Race thread so if I forgot to add anything or if I made a mistake please let know and I will fix it right away. Thank you very much.

(Increasingly convinced that people don't look at my signature at all…) I wrote a kilominx random state scrambler and it's linked in my sig. Click the "Download ZIP" button there, extract the two files in it to the same folder, open the HTML file, check the box that says "use random-state scrambles", then hit the "generate scrambles" button. It will take about a minute to generate the first batch, but subsequent batches will be generated much faster (less than half a second).

It will take about a minute to generate the first batch, but subsequent batches will be generated much faster (less than half a second).
First off I would like to let you know that I DO as a matter of fact read personal signatures and I did click on your kilominx scramble link before I asked about the scrambles. I did not know that there was the ability for downloading until you told me, so please forgive me for not noticing it and having to bother you.

With that being said, I tried to do as you directed me regarding the scrambles but every time I open the link and click the "random scramble" box and try to generate the scrambles, the page remains blank and no matter how long I wait for the scrambles nothing comes of it. I believe that it has something to do with my PC and lack of knowledge, but if you are able to provide a link with the scrambles or something akin, I would very much appreciate that. I do apologize for bothering you about this, but I sincerely appreciate your time and help.

Yey! Someone else has joined the Kilominx thread:) I actually forgot to add new scrambles last night, but I am glad that I waited until now.

On a different note, I am happy to see that you are able to make it to the "Colorado Qualifier 2018", and I look forward to seeing you then.
