meh time for such an easy scramble.

E: I said I wasn't going to be doing CFOP, but then this scramble...

F' D R2 F2 L' F // XX-Cross (6/6)

U2 f R U R' U' f' // EO (7/29)
F2 R U' R' U' R U R' F' R U R' U' l' U R [U2 x'] U' // ZBLL (18/47)

Why do Y perms always kill my movecounts on easy solves...

fixed, also you could use: R' U R U' x' U L' U L U2 R U' R' U' x' would have saved 5 moves.

Yeah, but I find I can execute Y perms quickly enough. Your alg is nice too.

Easy cross leaves two pairs that even I could see in inspection. Not using CFOP sucks when these scrambles come up

You forgot an AUF.
35 moves in a speedsolve though? That's the same as my FMC PB...

Surely you didn't speed solve this?

I've never tried FMC, but I'm pretty sure I've gotten like 32 moves with CFOP in the Example Solves thread once, best I've done while timing myself was a 38 move solution a little while ago, It was barely sub 10 because It was cold and I was turning pretty slow.

No, I think TDM meant the method.

I just got this on qqtimer: B2 F U' F2 B D2 F2 R2 F R' F U R2 F L2 D2 B' U' B' U' F2 L2 F B2 L'

Cross: R2 B2 L2 F2
First pair: y L' U L
Second pair: U R U' R'
Third pair: y U' R U' R' U R U R'
Fourth pair: y U R U' R' r U R' U' M
OLL: U2 F R U R' U' F'
PLL: U R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2

Not the best solve, but it was a weird scramble.

I actually was able to one look the XXcross with the 3 move insert setup, but I saw a better way to set up the last pair and edge orientation.

This is weird: F R' U' F2 U' R F U' F U'

Both the green and yellow face can be solved with same solution down to the auf.

y x' //
R U' R'// green face
U2 R U' R' U2 F R U2' R' F// EG1
U // finish

y' //
R U' R'// yellow face
U2 R U' R' U2 F R U2' R' F// EG1

Easy EO XXcross, and the rest of the solve was very good. Scramble was from the Fastest Fingers competiton and I was able to get a 6.17 with it, even my first try after finding it was 8.69.
