4x4 edge pairing parity alg

[cubersmith]

Can everyone post the alg they use for two edge parity during edge pairing. ( I dont really know what its called hence the horrible description ).

Thanks.

Alg?

Uw' R F' U R' F Uw

or, Uw' R U R' F R' F' R Uw

Nice alg. I'm going to have to switch since mine is sooo long

u' R U R' u U2 R B' R' B u' R U R' u

Basically said, false pair, set, flip edge, connect pairs

I do Rw U' R' U R' F R F' Rw' most of the time.

Alg?

Uw' R F' U R' F Uw

or, Uw' R U R' F R' F' R Uw

Thanks the first one is nice. I will switch to it if I dont see a better one.

I use Rw U' R2 U F R F' Rw'
Ish if I do M slice pairing.

I use the Uw' R F' U R' F Uw one too, indeed.
As far as I know, it is the shortest one.

If you don't like learning lots of different algorithms and you are planning to buy bigger cubes later (or if you already have cubes bigger than 4x4), you could kill four birds with one stone and learn the algorithm that sends the outer edge to the other side and vice versa (l' U2 l' U2 F2 l' F2 r U2 r' U2 l2), which you can then also use for the 5x5, 6x6, 7x7, but I still prefer Uw' R F' U R' F Uw though. There is no real point in using such a long algorithm on a 4x4 when there's a much shorter one available.

I think Uw' R U R' F R' F' R Uw is better for fingertricks.

 

[Cool Frog]

Isn't parity either,

It can be solved as a 3 cycle

r U2 r D2 r' U2 r D2 r2

r [U2, r D2 r']

Here's one I came up with Uw' (Lw'r) U' R U (Lw'r) U R Uw.

 

[cubersmith]

I do Rw U' R' U R' F R F' Rw' most of the time.

Finally learned this one. Looks like my favorite

Wow thanks for these algorithms, guys. I've been using a really slow one o_O
