This was a weird solve... the judge picked up the cube before he agreed with rob that it was a plus 2. He could have had a resolve cause judges error but he turned it down for the low 9 lol.
 
Thread title made me think it was a 5.14 solve with a +2 error and I was all "Oh no!". Still. Great solve :3

Nice OLL alg. That's the only awkward case that I think is really good, and from multiple angles too xD Personally I use a different alg from a different angle (r2' D' r U r' D r2 U' r' U' r, no regrips.)
 
Thanks for the comments guys.

@kunparekh18: I use that as well, but in my case, I had a feeling that if I use my main OLLCP alg, I would get either get a U perm or a EPLL skip. Fortunately it was an EPLL skip :)
