Hey guys, what's up? This is a follow-up thread to Calculating the Number of K4 "OLLs" on an nxnxn Cube. TLDR of that thread: @cuBerBruce ultimately was the one to find a method to find the number of OLLs there are on the nxnx in the 14th post. I wrote this paper to help to visualize his...

If you want a method with the fewest algs, how's 18? Here is a tool which illustrates how to apply such a set to solve the last layer. (Choose "Tempus 18" in the dropdown, put in an alg that just scrambles the last layer, and hit solve.) This was originally brought up in this post.

If you're aiming to make newcomers feel welcome and special, I don't think they will feel that way when they see that you just typed basically the exact same message for 9 people before them (+ liked I don't know how many posts), all within a 3 minute time frame, to be honest! If SS admin...

(If you feel that any of the following 4 solutions doesn't conform to the criteria of this thread, let me know which, and I will happily remove them from this post.) First explained in this video (Thread 1, Thread 2), Method 1a...

Some additional tips (for maintenance): Wash your hands before playing with them. (Especially if you just ate or touched your oily face, etc.... If your face itches while cubing, learn to use your forearm to scratch instead of your fingers.) When you are not playing with them for a while...

If by "random state", you might have possibly meant to have nxnxn scramblers which create a center scramble (for cage, BLD), like this, or an edge scramble like this (for reduction), to save us time with practicing a certain big cube sub-step, here are instructions on how conjugates can be used...

Just slightly modifying @Jorian Meeuse 's second single edge flip alg for the 3x3x3, 10 move OLL parity algorithm. (If only it was that simple, LOL.) R 6D 2L' 2R 6D' R' 6D 2L 2R' 6D2 A real 9-10 move OLL parity algorithm will scramble the 3x3x3 pseudo state + destroy 3 centers! r' U R' U r U...

Just as an FYI, https://alpha.twizzle.net/edit/ is going to eventually replace alg.cubing.net. And for 8x8x8 +, https://alpha.twizzle.net/explore/ What I noticed that twizzle (Thread 1, Thread 2, etc.) doesn't have that alg.cubing.net has is some of the alg simplication/modification tools...

And may I suggest to add in the parameter "&repeat=0" so that when you all manually click back and forth to see the last moves done ... that it doesn't start the sequence over again! (Annoying.) But if the next participant (and onward) uses the following, then that headache will be...

If guessing and looking up what the most popular LL methods/algs currently being used are were some of my favorite things to do, I would happily continue. I mainly wanted to help during the F2L and void cube parity phases on this first solve to get things started. Although I used to take pride...

I'm out. LOL.

Just turn the U face so that all corners are correctly placed in their solved slots. We have a single swap of edges.
