Optimal solution to the scramble is 17 moves.

The Austrian Open is barley over, and the next Austrian competition is already planned. I want to invite all cuber in or nearby the Austrian area to the Vienna Open 2016. The competition will take place on the 1st and 2nd of October in Vienna. This time it will feature each three rounds of...

After a (too long) break there's finally another competition in Austria! I want to invite all cuber in or nearby the Austrian area to the Austrian Open 2016. The competition will take place on the 18th and 19th of June in Vienna and will feature popular events like 2x2x2-7x7x7, OH, Square-1...

If you can solve the corners in x moves, most of the time you could also solve them with x+1, or x+2, or ... There are obviously some exceptions. For instance If the solution for the corners only take 1 move like U, you can't solve the corners in 2 moves. You also can't solve them with 3 or 4...

Wow, Feliks, Collin and Mats just destroyed the "Best Podiums in Rubik's Cube" WR. 7.45+7.69+7.98 = 23.12 Old WR was 24.66.

Not so sure if you still have an equal distribution of CO/CP, if you scramble it again in the EO/EP phase.

EO and EP can only be solved in <= 14 moves every time, if we don't care about the state of the corners. and CO and CP can only be solved in <= 11 moves every time, if we don't care about the state of the edges. So you will very likely mess up the corners again, when you apply a <= 14...

Nice job. Next goal: 8/8 in one hour.

Actually Christian Kaserer (the single world record holder) was the first person who got the scramble (source: probably the 2x2 WR record thread, too lazy to look it up). If you look at his video, you can see his baffled face. He thought, that he got a wrongly scrambled cube. All the other...

All the other finalists are waiting outside the room. Each of the finalists does 5 solves in a row. It's not the best format (since there are quite long pauses between solves), but it works. It is done this way, because space is very limited in this venue. It would be quite a jam, if there are...

You can save one char by importing everything from the random-module. from random import*;s=''.join(map(choice,['UDLRFB'," 2'",' ']*25))

Nothing new.
