Re: One answer BLD question thread blind

Check out Daniel Sheppards 4BLD tutorials on youtube

I have watched them. But he does not go over much in the centers.. Just how to do them. It doesn't really seem to go into. Cycles and such.

He has an example solve and memo, check it out

I have watched it all very clearly. He was helpful but I am still struggling a bit... Maybe I should just keep playing around with it. thankyou for your help.

Hey guys, recently I have decided to put some effort into 4 BLD. I feel confident in my order, memo and methods. I understand comms, but I can never seem to get centers right. Does anyone know any good resources I can read/watch regarding centers? Just too are if it helps.

Apart from Daniels YT channel there's also this write-up by Mike Hughey:
http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?2207-How-I-Solve-Centers-on-4x4x4-BLD

Just keep working on it: in time commutators will become easier.

Can someone link me to the best old pochman method video tutorial please?

I said at the beginning that I was assuming a basic understanding of 3bld already, and therefore also assuming knowledge of cycles. Sorry about that!

Oh... Damn, sorry! Anyway, I understand it now. Great tutorial and thankyou for it.

Is there a 3x3x3 BLD scrambler, which can:

- scremble the corners,
- preserve the edges, but
- with a 50% chance make a parity (UB-UL swap)

qqTimer -> Scramble type -> 3x3x3 subsets -> corners only
Toss a coin -> T-perm on Heads/Tails

You mean Y-perm. But I get the idea. Thanks!

Prisma puzzle timer do that

Edit : I'm not sure about the 50% parity though

I need the 3 style twisted corner alg. the two that are opposite and the only ones twisted.

 

[A Leman]

you are not specific so I will give you the best resource I know
http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?393-Official-Blindfold-Algorithm-List/page11

By the way, corner twisting is not 3style. (3style refers to speed optimal cycles). Parity, flipping and twisting are there own thing.

this is the alg I think you wanted (but I am not sure)
RU'L'UR'U'RUR'U'LURU'R'U

EDIT: for the inverse you can just do a U2 Auf and the same alg (instead of doing the case backwards).

just use commutators

 

[timothywong24]

I know this is off topic, but I have a quick question: (For MBLD) if one of the cubes is off by a U2, does that count as an unsolved cube or a +2?

 

[Sarath Jayand]

Yes this tutorial is good and he is one of the fastest 3BLD solvers out there

+2

I'm willing to buy a new cube for 3BLD , because my Vcube locks a lotttttt , what cube should I get ? I need a stable one with minimum lock ups

Any Stickered Dayan cube.
