^ At those times, the P word is probably your best friend. By that, I mean

PRACTICE.

I got sub-2 on 4x4 just by practicing a lot.

Practice? Whats that? Can you eat it? Lol Thank you sir.

[Jaycee]

It can be a verb and a noun "To practice" and the actual practice itself.

How many moves are in the following algorithm? : R U R' U R U2 R'

Is it 7 or 8? Is U2 worth 1 or 2? I'd say 1 since most scrambles are 20 moves long, and usually include a bunch of (x)2 in them. Thanks!

 

[Jaycee]

In QTM (Quarter Turn Metric), a n2 is 2 moves.

In HTM (Half Turn Metric) a n2 is 1 move.

HTM is much more common.

very rarely you'll see this M,M,U,M,M,U,U,M,M,U,M,M most commonly used is M2,UM2,U2,M2,U,M2

Unless variable "n" is a slice move, of course.

 

[Jaycee]

Good catch. I didn't even think of that.

 

[Sarahjdes]

So when I'm told that you usually can do the cross in about 7 moves, is it in HTM or QTM? And, who uses QTM? If HTM is more common, I guess this is what the WCA uses? Thanks!
