89. 11.05 U' R2 U2 F2 D B2 L2 D B2 U2 B' R' F2 L' B' R2 B L2 U2 F'

2-3 seconds pause halfway through CMLL because I forgot to regrip before the alg and got confused.

y x' // Inspection
U L D' r B' // FB (5/5)
U' M' U R2 U' R' U R2 U2 r' // SB (10/15)
R2 U' R F R' U R2 U' R' F' R // CMLL (11/26)
M' U2 M' U' // LSE (4/30)

Perfect lookahead for F2B, 11 moves less than my Roux PB single... and I got an 11.

nice! i think my best movecount on a solve is also 30. that's one of the craziest lse i've ever seen.

And you could even cancel it with the last move of CMLL: R2 U' R F R' U R2 U' R' F' Rw U2 M' U'. I can do the entire solve without regripping my right hand.
But yeah, that LSE is even more crazy than my OH PB single...

One of the easiest scrambles I ever got:

scramble: F2 R2 F' U2 R2 B' F' D2 R2 F' L' F2 L B' R D L' U

Double x-cross: z2 D R' U R U' R U R'L F'
Multislotting & OLL-skip: y' L' U' L U' L' U2 R' U' L U' R
Rest: U G-Perm
34 HTM

I got this doing Roux, but after speedsolving it I tried doing it BLD. 51.80.

This is a scramble that Deven Nadudvari posted in 2010 on Facebook. I spent a bit too much time on it just now doing a variety of speed type solutions and also fewest moves (blurry line for this scramble!)

Oh snap. I don't think I've ever had a scramble that bad, and I've done a lot of multi.

Thought I had 9.99, but the timer was just lagging...

I did the usual OLL and got an A-perm, so I knew that I missed a skip...

Dumb 1LLL recognition, but I'm getting better at not completely missing them.

Not always true If the OLLCP is off by an Hperm off than it still an A perm.
