variants

So, I invented a theoretical CFOP variant known as "3BL". It consists of a few steps: 1.) Solve the cross ANY WAY YOU WANT (so it doesn't have to align the colors, just connect the cross-colored part of the edges to the center) 2.) Solve the rest of the cube up until PLL 3.) Do a PBL algorithm...

So I have had a wondering of how various algorithms are made and why people use them. Some are generated. Some are discovered and popularized. For example, the lefty Nb perm is said to have less overwork then the righty Nb algorithm. Why is this and how does it affect speedcubing? How are these...

First, I'd like to credit Cyrus C. (for the Petrus Home thread idea) and Innocence (lol...). Just a thread for those few ZZ/ZB members out there. Here's a list of cubers that use ZZ/ZB method as their main method that I KNOW of: Sir E Brum 4Chan koreancuber blah (not sure) Cride5...
