The "Request an Alg" Thread

[Erik]

I'm wondering if anyone has an efficient alg for solving the following 5x5 last 2 centres case:

xxo
ooo
oxx
---
xxo
oxo
oxx

 

[TDM]

Solved with: F' L' B L F B' U' B' U B

Why not [y] r' U' R U M' U' R' U R?

 

[Arkwell]

BR & BL slot algs for these?

My algs for these F2L cases are:
(U2)R U' R' U' F' U' F
(U2')F' U' F U R U' R'
(U2')L' U L U F U F'
(U2)F U F' U' L' U L

Any good algs for when these situations are in the BR & BL slots?

My algs for these F2L cases are:
(U2)R U' R' U' F' U' F
(U2')F' U' F U R U' R'
(U2')L' U L U F U F'
(U2)F U F' U' L' U L

Any good algs for when these situations are in the BR & BL slots?

It's quite hard to see what case that is from those images, but it looks like the case setup with R' U R' F R F' R, solvable with:
R' F R' F' R U' R
And for BL, you could do the L/R mirror of that:
L F' L F L' U L'
or just do L U L' d L' U' L.
Idk about when the corner is twisted the other way.

Took me an age to set it up (r U' r' U' r U' r' U2 l' U' l U' l' U l)

U' r U r' U r' F2 r // U r U r' U' r U2 r'
U' r U r' U r' F2 r // U' r U2 r' U' r U r'

U l' U' r U' r' U r U' r' l U r U r' nice

The case shown at the video appears to be this ELL:
Solved with: F' L' B L F B' U' B' U B

But if you are searching for the OLL that flips that two edges:

, you need the algorithm r U R' U' M U R U' R'

Or... if you are searching for an algorithm that just flips two adjacent edges, like this:

Then you will need r U R' U' r' U2 R U R U' R2 U2 R.

Just what I needed, Thanks!

What a good alg for OLL 35, except held at the same angle as inverse sexysledge? I always recognize the big 2x2 and put it in the back left, then I have to U2 AUF and then do the alg, so learning an alg from this angle is probably better.

U2 R U r' U r U' r' U' M'

This algorithm doesn't do anything. Am I wrong here?

U2 R U r' U r U' r' U' M'

Still can't get this ag to work. Is it written incorrectly?

 

[Artic]

Spoiler: Well, if the edge is at BL and needs to go to FR, and the corner is at UBL and needs to go to DFR, do...

U2 R2 u R2 u' R2

I hate to spam, but GuRoux provided this alg as an alternative for the above case: U2 R U r' U r U' r' U' M' Can someone confirm it for me? I stupidly can't get it to work.

It probably doesn't work because it's for a different, but similar, case - the triple sexy case. Use alg.cubing.net to test to see whether an alg/reconstruction works (change "Moves" under settings to whichever option is relevant).

What is the triple sexy move? Do you have an image or description so I can visualize it?

(R U R' U')3

thanks! Seems bizarre he would've offered an incorrect alg for such different cases. And I do recall trying it several times and it worked. But then it was edited by a mod and now and perhaps that caused some errors in the original post.

 

[goodatthis]

Asking for this one again.
What's a good alg for OLL 35 held with the 2x2 in the LB position? (Same as inverse sexysledge)


And what are some easy to learn algs for the puretwist sune and antisune 2GLLs?

 

[Arkwell]

Algs for this 2 F2L case?

On the same (R U R' U')x3 subject what do most people do when this case is in the wrong slot diagonally?
Asked before but didn't know how to upload picture.

P.S. How would I have posted the picture like in TDM's post?

You could use Visual Cube like he did or just put in img tags after uploading.

Could someone post the J-perm which begins with L' U R' z ... ?
I saw it someone, but I'm too lazy to find it...
Are there any other PLL's with this beginning ?

An N perm I think. Not sure what the whole alg though
