Except I got 1.08 (keyboard) this time.

Of course PCMS is the way to go on that scramble, don't know why I did not think of it. I was doing OH so it doesn't really matter.

Yeah, PCMS isn't the best OH method If you want another good (but not as good) PCMS scramble:

This happens way too often.

As well as matching up the wrong pieces.

Only on the easiest scrambles, and always on the easiest scrambles.

Wow. That's impressive. Lol. In a speedsolve, I'd probably do the yellow cross because it's less weird.

One move cross on white, very easy first two pairs, and T perm for PLL (the way I solved it)
