    [Help Thread] Redi Cube Discussion & Help Thread

    sorry for double post, but this discussion seems pretty dead. so kinda bump. Also question: chris VanDerBrink does some weird stuff in his UWR average, does anyone have any Ideas what he actualy does? to me it seems like he does layer-side layer, but leaves out the U-layer edge of the second...

    [Help Thread] Redi Cube Discussion & Help Thread

    Hey guys, it's me, Shiv3r. Haven't been on in a few months, but I'm back. I just got a redi cube, and after learning the LBL approach(intuitively, with the middle pieces+corners simultaneously). I haven't really timed any solves soon, but I will eventually, I hope to help pioneer both speed...

    so the picture broke, what was this supposed to be?

    HD Method (2x2, alternative to CLL+)

    but the point isn't to be similar to a method it doesn't compare well to(EG+TCLL+CLL). compare it to other methods that take as much effort to learn, such as CLL. it is the only one in it's advancedness that has the possibility to easily onelook.

    HD Method (2x2, alternative to CLL+)

    guys, this method is extremely easy onelooked. the amount of LOLS is low enough and the avg movecount for the V is 1. If you can see 1 move ahead, then you're set. since there are only 15 LOLS, you can memorize fairly easily how each affects corner permutation of the last 5 corners, and since...

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    random thought: since I can't find a thread for alg discussions, thought this would be a good place to post some V-perms I came up with intuitively. I used this alg from a youtube video: (the alg is executed a y/U away from the "normal" V-perm) (L' U R U') (L U L' U)(R' U')(L U2 R U2 R') and...

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    I thought up of this a while, but with planning first square+2 DR Corners in inspection, then doing porky2 to insert the last F2L pair, then SB. but instead of 2GOLL(which it ended up being) I thought of it as the 2.5-gen subset of OLLCP(2.5-gen being <R,rU>)

    Okay guys, I think we should have a MUWR list(Method Unofficial World record) list.. For example, I know that for Ribbon method the UWR is 10.5 I think. but what is the MUWR for methods like HD?(I think it's sub-2) ZZ-4c? etc?

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    It would be awesome for Chess clock FMC, a game I observed at an in-n-out last saturday after a comp, which is where you and an opponent have a chess clock, and you alternate doing a move and hitting the clock. Whoever finishes first wins.

    I do Yu da Hyun(I think), I do the same thing actually except for EO. it would be easy.

    So just a random Roux that I decided to do because it makes roux solves more fluid and I haven't heard of someone doing it anywhere. copied from a doc I am making with a bunch of LSE things I am working on. Where BU is in the 2 ugly ULUR cases The reason I did this is I realized that even...

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    Okay, so y'all remember Hawaiian Kociemba? well, I think solving only 3 cross edges is actually really good. I can usually plan xcross-1 edge in inspection, and the L5EOP algs are nice(L5EOP is EO+DF, then EPLL), and the L5EP algs are pretty nice(much of the algs can be done with a conjugated...

    Anyway, I have been using Squan LBL, aka Jason Baum method aka "whatever the F**k that nub Helmer Ewert does"(quoted verbatim from a conversation I had a few months ago), and have been trying(and failing) To learn Lin. I just want to talk a little about these methods and would like to ask if...

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    I already did this "ZZ-magic" thing with Jtwong71 about a year ago. but we did it this way, which is pretty inefficient but is very alg-light(about as many as full PLL TOTAL): -ZZF2L-1 -build a U layer corner-edge pair and an F2L pair. -place the U-layer pair in the F2L slot and AUF the F2L...

    Hey, so I came up with a 4x4 method a while back, just for the lols, here it is again in more detail. this is based off one of the solves in felik's former WR average, which is basically Pootris on the E slice instead of the M slice. Here's the steps: 1.2 opp centers 2.Roux block 3.L4C...

    so guys, I want to bring this up again, but I'm working on making Meyer method a lot faster. I need some volunteers to help me find what solves which case. it's called OP+CMLL, and what it does is solves Orientation parity at the same time as CMLL. so you get algs like this(for adj swap): F sexy...

    One-Answer 3x3 Roux Question Thread

    He probably means 2 alg sets: CMLLS, and OLLCP. they are 2 separate sets, and me personally do not use the CMLL's, but I know some OLLCP's just by playing with algs I already know, mostly by trying to make then COLL's. easiest way to try to force certain edge cases is trying to make strategic...

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    Hey guys, we should talk about 4x4 and 5x5 and maybe even bigger methods. Here are some things I came up with recently: 4x4/5x5 method: Use Meyer or Meyer5, then after edgepairing put the middle centers a u2 away from solved, and keyhole in BL and BR, then you have a solved 2x2x3 in the back...
