I keep hearing about OBLBL. What is it? Consider my interest piqued.

I use reduction for everything. 32223 for 4x4, freeslice for everything else, in E.
 
I use K4 for any cube larger than 3x3x3. :) (Of course, I do other methods now and again for fun)
(That being said, I don't really practice any more...)

PS: AFAIK, There's no such thing as "K5, K6," etc. If you're solving K4 on a 5x5, it's still K4.

I use reduction for all big cubes (4x4, 5x5, 6x6 - don't have a 7x7 yet, but I may get the Shengshou 7x7 when it comes out if it's cheap), but my edge pairing is quite slow at the moment:
4x4 - I pair 2 edges at a time but I am learning 3-2-2-2-2-3;
5x5 - I started learning free-slicing yesterday - previously I paired degdes first and then paired tredges, 2 at a time;
6x6 - I pair the 2 midges first, then finish as a 5x5.
 
God, i've been cubing for nearly 3 years, and i don't know what these methods are...

Anyway, for all big cubes, i do centers->edge paring->3x3
4x4: sort of advanced edge pairing
everything else: one by one edge pairing

EDIT: Oh, it's the reduction method.
 
Reduction for all big-cubes. Colour neutral centers for all of them and M-slice pairing for 5-7. For 4x4 I use 3-2-2-2-3 pairing with M-slice. I put two of the first three edges on the DF and DB spots, it's basically the same thing that Feliks does but with M-slice.
