R2 D2 R2 D R' U*L U L' U2 R2 D2.F U R2 B'

.=D' B' D F D' B D F'
*=B2 R2 D R2 B2 L2 U L2

Need to work on my 8-movers; *=U B2 R2 F2 D R2 B2 L2 cancels one more move. However, I've had way worse than one move more than IF when working with 3C3E.

On the inverse:
U' B2 L B2 L2 B [2x2x3-1C+pairs]

Switch:
B R B2 D2 B D' R' F D' F' D R' [L4C]

B R B2 D2:B D' R' F D' F' D R' B' L2 B2 L'.B2 U

Since there's a three move cancellation at both . and : I tried both, : turned out to be best (and optimal):

:=D'*B U B' D B U' B'
*=D' F' D B2 D' F D B2

At first I miscounted and thought I had a 17 move skeleton and thus a 27 move solution, but instead it's 28. :/

On the inverse with premove R':

R L2 F L2 U2 B' U*B F2 D2 B2 D2 U' L' F.D L:


.=F' L F R' F' L' F R
:=L D' L' U L D L' U'

Argh, a better first insertion would be *=U' B' U F2 U' B U F2 (resulting in 26). How did I miss that!?

.=L2 D' R2 D L2 D' R2 D

IF gives 25 as optimal for my skeleton, and 26 after my first insertion.

R2 B D' B R'.F2 L U2 L U L' U' L2 D' B2 F'

.=R2 F L2 F' R2 F:L2 F'
:=F' D F D' U L' D' L D U'

I missed this nice L3C finish after 2x2x3: L U2 L U L' F U F' U2 L2, which results in 26 moves, should've kept an eye out for four move insertions, I guess.

Found in 30 minutes, tried to find something nicer for about 10 minutes, but I got bored of trying to get even luckier.

On the inverse:
B2 R2 D R [EO and another pair]
F' R2 [Two squares]
U2 B' U B'*D [XX-cross]

At * it looks like I would be able to cancel a bunch of moves, and that was the case. *=B U' B' D2 B U B' D2 to leave five corners.

U F' U' F2 D B U' B' D2 B2 U2 R2 F R' D'.R2 B2

.=D F' D' B D:F D' B'

Only decent thanks to the short block and lucky insertion. Decided to check for an insertion in this skeleton to avoid DNFing when I had 10 minutes left.

B' D B U' L2 [2x2x2]

Thus resulting in this skeleton:
B R B R' B R B2 R D2 R2 D' R2 B' D' B2 L2 U B' D'.B R' F2 U R2

Insert at dot: D F' U F D' F' U' F

Meh, but ok for the first attempt in a while, I guess.

Resulting in this skeleton:

Insert at dot: R' U' R D' R' U R D (Five move cancel) :)
Insert at colon: R2 D' L2 D R2 D' L2 D (One move cancel) :/

~20 minute solution, too lazy to find anything better

.=B D' F2 D B' D' F2:D

Couldn't find a nice way to use all three pairs. That's some lucky insertion you got there, Linus.

I'm starting to really like doing EO first.

Switch to normal:

2012-36431U' L U B2 [Pseudo 2x2x3]

Since there's multiple pre-moves to get the 2x2x3 normal, lets switch to the inverse:

B2 L F' L' F [2x2x3]
R' F U2 F R' U' R U' [Leaving 2E4C]

Results in this skeleton:

U' L U B2 U R' U R.F':U2 F R F' L F L' B2

Insert at dot: R2 U R U2 B U B2 R B (One move cancel)
Insert at colon: B' L B R2 B' L' B R2 (Two moves cancel)

Was hoping that the 2E3C fliptwist would've cancelled more moves, but apparently not. Not enough time to explore all those 2x2x3s, so there's probably a sub-30 lurking somewhere that I missed.
