Easy / Lucky / Hard / Weird scrambles Thread

[Davepencilguin]

Have you ever gotten a REALLY lucky scramble, where you start with a semi-solved cube?

I got this scramble for the 2x2x2 form JNetCube timer:
L B2 D L D2 L' D F' U' R F2 D B2 U' F' L D F' U2 R2 B R' B2 U' F2




Anybody have any?

 

[TimMc]

Can't say I have.... I guess you'll always get a lucky scramble if the algorithm for generating the scramble doesn't ensure a certain minimum amount of moves to solve it...

I once had a scramble for the 2x2 that was probably the luckiest possible. It was solved with R U R'. I didn't realize that would solve it, so my time still ended up being 1.87. It was pulled from JNetCube i think.

Hmm... What does 'lucky scramble' mean to you?

I once had a scramble for the 2x2 that was probably the luckiest possible. It was solved with R U R'.

The luckiest possible scramble would give you a solved cube. That basically happened to me once, all corners were solved in a 3x3x3.

How was this lucky? :/

2x2 scramble.

 

[h3ndrik]

you can solve that scramble with one COLL algorithm, therefore it is kind of lucky

 

[Erik]

wouldn't be lucky for me, I don't do CLL...

I once had a scramble on the 2x2x2 that was exactly the Sune. It ended up being something like 1.3 with a penalty of +2

2x2 scramble.

Yeah I know that, I guess I did the scramble wrong.

3x3x3: L2 R' D' B2 D' L2 U L2 B' F' R' F2 D2 U' B' L' B F2 D' B2 F2 R2 B F2 R2

not sure where i have this, it's in my cube txt file for some reason
pretty easy stuff though

This morning i had a 3x3x3 scramble with a c/e pair connected and a 3 move cross.

Yes, I am bored. Here it is: (cross on bottom)

D' B' F' U B2 D' L U F U' L R' F2 L' R' D B F2 D' U' L2 B2 F' U B2

If the cross is done a certain way, F2L will be extremely fast. My first time I did 14.00, although it should have been WAY faster...

 

[joey]

15.09, first solve of the day, should of warmed up!

 

[Swordsman Kirby]

9.61 It seems that joey did the wrong cross.

 

[philkt731]

check out this scramble (especially petrus lover (but even so if your not)):
R2 B R B' D' B L F2 L2 D B' F U2 B F2 U R' F R U2 L' U' R L U2

got 12.86 this morning after 2 weeks of no practice

 

[brad711]

Mr. Unreal's scramble
23.63 (Quite fast for me)
Sune and PLL skip.
Mr. phil's scramble
25.26 (still fairly fast)
Sune and PLL skip. Again.

 

[Cerberus]

first: 20.17
second: 21.09 (opposite color solve)
no skips (except for the one f2l at the second scramble

here are two from me (just made avg of 100):
U' R2 F' L2 F U B U2 B R F' R2 B' U L2 B' R2 B' L' D2 F2 L' R' D F'
D' U' B U R2 L F U2 B2 L' B2 R' B F2 R2 L B F2 L2 B' R D B D L

 

[Tomarse]

Hmm i tried them all, got between 19.58 - 22.34 so same as always for me really, nothing special, i guess that just proves i never get lucky ¬_¬

 

[Todd]

Other than an easy cross i cant see how to make it an easy f2l as well..

Any tips?
