Solutions from 26.67 mean @ PBQKY. It's difficult to tie overall PB mean in comp and feel awful about it, but I managed to do it. Clearly I need to work on finding finishes after leave slice. I'm not really sure if I'm actually improving at DR/HTR or just getting lucky, but this...

It does eliminate the D moves, all of the moves are done on U. It's basically the same concept as the original where the simul move IS the D move necessary to solve the opposite face. Also I was confused earlier and thought that solving with only one simul move per face was only possible with...

I think that the (x2 z') variant of this method is very interesting as well, since it only requires one simul move (per face) Memo U to C on back x2 z' Memo U to C on front UL up, Match C to R UR up, Match C to D R up, Match U to L (UL) up, Match U+L to 12 Simul: Perform memo'd move for...

solutions from 29.00 mean @ take a break ohio state

I'm not sure that this is any different than how the WCA currently handles things. Scramblers are already expected to check and verify that they scrambled correctly (reg A2d1), and there's precedent for banning people for intentionally misscrambling (e.g...

This is simply not true. I averaged ~50s for memo+execution using M2/OP when I did BLD. 3-style is obviously much faster, but you are exaggerating the gap between them.

Instead of doing the "U2" alg then a Y-perm for corner parity you can just execute the last target as you would with OP

Not that great of a solve, but good for me because I found nearly optimal insertions in ~16 minutes :)
