The "Request an Alg" Thread

[ajayd]

For The Knight Shape OLL's, I need an Oll for Oll #16 that points down. like a straight line with a dip to the bottom left corner. I cannot find any algorithm like that. Most of them are going to the top right. If you don't get what i mean. imagine a knight on c3. Nc3 to a2. This is the alg i Want. All of the others are Na2 c3

What PLL Nb-perm Alg do you use?

Hey all.
So I have JUST finished learning full PLL (All 21 algs for CFOP) [See here for more info: ] and I really hate the Nb-perm that I use.
Nb-Perm: R' U R U' R' F' U' F R U R' F R' F' R U' R
It is the algorithm that Feliks uses. Can anyone suggest a better algorithm or point me to the right place of some good ones? Thank you :fp

It's the algorithm I use, I'm pretty sure my PB is sub 1.20 if not sub 1.1 - it's not too bad.

If you have no AUF you *can* execute like R' U R U' R' F' U' F R U R' x U R' U' x R D' R. I don't fully rotate for the last x but regrip so my third finger is on FRU. Works ok with a decent cube. Finger push for the F' on RFU then drag back down for the F.

Na: z U R' D R2 U' R D' U R' D R2 U' R D'
Nb: z' U' L D' L2 U L' D U' L D' L2 U L' D

They're just mirrored.

R' U L' U2 R U' M' B Rw' U2 R U' Rw.

 

[Xyphos]

R' U L' U2 R U' M' B Rw' U2 R U' Rw.

That alg kinda looks scary. how fast can you execute it ?

Watch plechoss' channel for the fingertricks

does anyone know of any really short/ easy to remember Gc and Gd PLL algs?

The "usual" ones are optimal in htm (12).
Gc: (R2' u' R U') (R U R' u R2) (f R' f')
Gd: (R U R') y' (R2' u' R U') (R' U R' u R2)

If you don't like those I suggest you take a look at the wiki or the polish dB (Gc/Gd).

The J permutation that isn't this one: R U R' F' R U R' U' R' F R2 U' R' U'

I think it's Ja?

 

[Brest]

The J permutation that isn't this one: R U R' F' R U R' U' R' F R2 U' R' U'

I think it's Ja?

Yep... I don't know why though, Jb looks like the letter J, Ja doesn't.

 

[jj1234]

I'm aware of the reference page, but which one would you recommend?

Indeed. Many call Jb J and Ja L

I'm aware of the reference page, but which one would you recommend?

L' U R' (z) R2 U R' U' R2 U D (z')
(x) U2 r' U' r U2 l' U R' U' l2

 

[omer]

Just looked through all the algorithms on that page, the one I liked the most is the t-permy one:
(y2) F U' R' F R2 U' R' U' R U R' F' R U R' F'

is there a pure sune (and antisune) algorithm i could use for BLD? i really don't wanna use conjugates anymore...

 

[Noahaha]

Sune/Antisune + AUF + U-Perm + AUF is the best I think. I'll leave it up to you to figure out the details.
