The "Request an Alg" Thread

[brododragon]

Spend a couple of minutes to draw your own? Besides, OCELL already looks awful on its own, and while I haven't been following your myriad method proposal posts, chances are that whatever you're working on won't overcome OCELL's shortcomings.

OCPELL is 2-gen, which makes it a lot faster, so it overcomes the 2 extra moves that it takes versus COLL/EPLL.

2-gen, which makes it a lot faster,

And I can choose COLL algs to be mostly RU with a small number of strategically placed F/L/D moves too, which nullifies your point.

Not being "2-gen" doesn't automatically mean it's a horrendous alg with a zillion wide moves and B moves and rotations and whatnot; in practice, non-2-gen algs used in speedsolves are more like the T perm alg, with only one F move and one F' move, which are about as fast as 2-gen algs of the same length.

Can I have OC(P)ELL algs with picture of the cases?

What exactly does OCPELL do? Orient LL corners while permuting edges of the last layer?

Yes.

This is the only documentation of it:

OCELL/CPLL a 2-gen friendly alternative to COLL/EPLL

This is an alternative system for completing the last layer with edges pre-oriented. Suitable for ZZ, Petrus, VH or ZBF2L users. OCELL stands for: Orient Corners [permute] Edges Last Layer. It could also be called OCEPLL, but that would be a bit of a mouthfull :rolleyes: The system is designed...

I mean for pure speed, OCLL/PLL is faster, and even then, ZBLL exists, so I don't see why you'd choose that over it.

Why would you want to force CPLL?

I need a ja perm that flows good

 

[Owen Morrison]

just do JB but left handed.

No, that's not as good. It's good to stick to one hand for your algorithms.
The best Ja IMO is x R2 F R F' R U2 r' U r U2 x'

A lot of people do Jb lefty, but I personally like x R2 F R F' R U2 r' U r U2 x' best. If you're really slow with your left hand, then probably don't do the lefty Jb

R2 U R2' D' R2 U R2' U' R2 U' D R2' U'

That's Jb, not Ja. (And it's a terrible alg for either case)

I personally do the one @WarriorCatCuber mentioned if headlights are on the left. If the headlight are on the front I do R' U L' U2 R U' R' U2 R L if the headlights are in the front and the lefty Jb perm if headlights are on the right. My personal favorite is @WarriorCatCuber 's

 

[Cubingcubecuber]

I use R' U L' U2 R U' R' U2 R L

 

[BenChristman1]

I use R' U L' U2 R U' R' U2 R L

Same

Why not just AUF real quick? Is using 3 different algs really faster?

im pretty sure thats JA perm

 

[Micah Morrison]

because all the algs are about equal to me and they all start with a regrip which would make it slow to AUF and then do the alg.
