This frigging thing still has users every day. Please, someone tell me there's a better solver I can redirect people to. I'm not getting back to cubing again and would like to take this down. Does someone want to host this? It needs 3 GB of files to run and 200 MB of RAM in the worst case, for...

That's funny, because I always thought the jarcs UI is awful and would have preferred someone to steal my backend. Two weeks in 2009 is all the time I could be bothered to spend on the UI. Some features that a good UI for a step-solver would need: 1) Proper simulator, dunno what this is...

The average is 6.701 moves, worst case is 9. I made a table with some statistics like this in 2009: http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?12403-2x2x2-X-cross-and-3x2x2-move-count&p=185213&viewfull=1#post185213

A fast 2x2x3 solver should not be too difficult to write these days, computers have more than enough resources. Premoves should be a fairly trivial addition. I wanted to write a FMC tool that would understand premoves and insertions etc. a long time ago but never got around to it. JARCS is...

I've received a number of PMs about this so I'll just post here. Yes, it's down. No, it's not getting back up soon; in early September perhaps. I've been hosting laire.fi from a laptop in my home but can't do that at the moment. Right now I don't have any time for setting up something else...

Thank's, now it's back up (again!). Two servers have died while hosting this thing.

He doesn't, but he can still get sub-16 averages easily. Six months for my first sub-20 average. Probably one more for consistency. Concentrating on getting sub-20 quickly might be counter productive, if you eventually want to be sub-15. You can waste a bunch of moves at every step and...

About a month ago. It will be a bit unstable for the next few months. If nobody beats me to it, I'll write a 100x better solver to replace that when I have time. It's like 3 years old.

It was down for over 2 weeks, but it's back up now. Rest in pieces, my dear old server. :'( It runs on a cheap netbook at the moment, so the solvers are even slower than before (and might even timeout for very bad cases). I'll fix that some day.

It's all joey's fault, he said that 15% seems reasonable. I suspected it might be wrong, I probably misremember what the code does. Edit: Yepp, it only looks for ce-pairs that are connected _and_ solved with respect to centers.

About 15%. [Edit: No it's not. Read the following posts.] (Based on some code I wrote over 2 years ago.)

That can't be a serious question. Anyone can make new definitions for words and put them somewhere google will see them. It doesn't change the commonly accepted meaning. And yeah it doesn't matter. Machine language is also interpreted! (by the hardware)

This. Works best for me, too. It honestly sounds like you just made that argument up. PHP and Perl are programming languages, period. Nope!
