Random Cubing Discussion

[Godmil]

That is a really good idea. Think how much we could learn by having a handy to reach record of all the reconstructed solves by people like Faz et al.

 

[aronpm]

Why don't we start keeping record of all the reconstructions being done. The reconstruction thread is just too messy to find all the reconstructions we want. Maybe we should add a website where we can add reconstructions of anyone we want. Each cuber could have their own page full with strictly just their reconstructions. Maybe an add on to the wiki?

I wrote some software (php+mysql) for a simple tag database which could store reconstructions with tags (like "feliks zemdegs, 4x4, official, 35.65"), but it's really only intended for personal use (i.e., 1 person has access to add reconstructions, other people can only search). I gave a copy to Brest but I don't think he set it up

add parity to this case

it's now easier

"IMG" add parity to this case "IMG" it's now easier

Lol, or you could just;
[F2:[r2,B' R B R',l2]]

 

[Kirjava]

Lol, or you could just;
[F2:[r2,B' R B R',l2]]

I already exlained

 

[irontwig]

Why not just [F2 r2:[F' R' F, M2]]?

The Wiki really, really needs work in the hardware/cube section...I feel like we wouldn't get as much annoying traffic on "i want a cube that does x and x" if we can throw all of our knowledge together on there.

http://www.speedsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Category:3x3x3_Cubes

Example....this is really not a good landing page for 3x3 cubes when we already start describing them under their own brand name pages.

Which, by the way, also need updating.

The alpha needs a writeup on the CC, and Dayan needs general pictures/cleanup all around.

I don't feel like i'm qualified enough for the job...

I feel like not many of the newbies to the forum know who Austin Moore is. This saddens me.

Yeah, same with BigGreen. They are both great at Roux.

 

[JonnyWhoopes]

Exactly. Everybody is all "5BLD is new faz of roux" and forget about the trailblazers of Roux

 

[BigGreen]

No one knows me because I am a ninja.

No one knows me because I am a ninja.

That's a pretty good reason.

Vid? Don't make it 3 WR's with no video.

And also, Daniel Sheppard broke the 5BLD WR at Rapid Dash. 7:0x.yz.

Most people knows of ZBLL. (1LLL when all edges are oriented.) But you need nearly 500 algs if you want to learn that.

I wonder how many algs you need if all corners are oriented?

CPEOLL does already exist, and the first five situations is very easy to solve in 1-look with PLL/ELL.

But how many algs would it be for the 10 remaining situations?

Is this already a method?

I am just wondering if it is hard to solve LL in 1-look if I get all corners oriented.

 

[Athefre]

How to reduce CLL+1 to CLLx2:

For each of the eight orientations pick a permanent edge slot. Taking Sune for example, you would always solve the edge to the right of the oriented corner.



If the edge is within the M-slice, use M' or M2 to place the edge at DB always in the same orientation. Then, your corner alg will cycle DB->UR->UL and do a Z-Perm.

Setup: F' U' F U2 R U B L U2 L' U B' U' R'
Solution: U2M' y R'U2R2URUR2U2R' y' U2M

If the edge is within the S-slice, it's the same thing except only a DB->UR->UL cycle.

Setup: F' L' U' L U F U B' U' R' U R B
Solution: M2U' FRU'r'U2rUR'URU'R'F' UM2
