    First of all because I've solved all the other edges. Also, all the other stickers besides that one and the one at UF are solved, so process of elimination. I probably would've just glanced to the side and seen the blue sticker, though. Or I could've figured it out at some point while solving...

    ZFOP F2L

    It's not fast.

    I made a song! Fall of the Last Leaf - Muesli (Tell me what you think!)

    Seems really repetitive and drawn out.

    Here's a quick example. Scramble (Blue Front, Yellow Top): R U R' F' L' U2 L2 R' F L' R2 U2 R' First thing I notice is the 2 yellow stickers facing me at FL and FU. I orient these With L' U L. Next I see the yellow sticker facing the right at UR and the yellow sticker facing me at FU. I solve...

    That is *not* how you should be doing bad edges. First of all, try doing a y rotation and putting the unsolved faces on F and U, I find this easier for recognition. When I do bad edges, I only do 2 edges at a time. Just look for 2 unoriented edges, then orient them. While you're orienting...

    Your blocks look fine. Just practise using them in speedsolves I guess. How well does executing bad edges on R and U work for you? I'd think doing a y and doing them on R and U would help recognition in a speedsolve.

    Race to sub-2 on making the checkered board pattern on 3x3

    Urgh. I'm having difficult sub-2ing this. How are you guys executing?

    Freestyle Solving

    I do this for my LL. I generally do a CFOP start, though.

    Relays Inspection Time

    Yea, thinking of it as one time works as well.

    Yes, that's what I meant. I don't have trouble mirroring over to LU, I just have trouble executing it with the y and as RU. RU algs are definitely terrible to memorize. Other subsets (RUD, RUL, etc) are so much easier to memorize. To be honest, I don't think RU has much of an advantage over...

    Proposition - Let's fix some cubing terms!

    4a - I realize this would be difficult. Could we possibly change to using the prefix UL rather than LL? To remove ambiguity between M layer finishes and U layer finishes. e.g. PUL for CFOP, PML for Roux. 5 - This would be super cool. I'd like to see what ideas you have. 7 - Or maybe COLS? I...

    Reread the last couple posts of that discussion. I don't think you understand what I was saying (maybe I'm misunderstanding you though). He asked whether it was worth learning new algorithms for the reflections, or if we just used mirrors. I said you might as well learn new algorithms, because...
