Multislotting

[alexc]

I heard that there are 82 multislotting cases. So can you solve any configuration of 2 F2L pairs with those 82 cases? That seems like a very little number for the amount of possible combinations. Also, is there anyone that actually knows at least some of them. Is it worth learning? It seems like you can save a lot of moves with it.

I think thats only for adjacent slots, and none of the pieces start out in the wrong slot, though i may be worng

Where did you here that?

"Note that the 82 multislotting algorithms presented here are only a small subset of what you can do with multislotting."

You'd need a lot more algs to be able to do it 100% of the time.

So, those 82 are just the basic cases? Can you do it intuitively almost 100% of the time?

Depends on what you define "intuition" as.
The same algorithm can be very intuitive for Harris Chan and far more complicated for me.

Hi guys, as Johannes91 said, the 82 "algorithms" are just a very small subset of what you can do with multislotting. In fact you shouldn't consider them like algorithm, I prefer to say that you should use different sequences to solve a connected pair(like "algs" used to orient LL edges during the 4th pair).
I made a tutorial on "how to introduce multislotting in your solves" on my website, i'll add more stuff later(more detailled solves and THE F2L database). But I think what I did is enough to start working on this, check :

have fun

we'll start to see more MS guys this year possibly ;-)
