It's not a normal "problem", but i think its more of an anomaly in my case since this is the 4th time (yeah, okay, well, its GOING to be an anomaly) i've ever solved a 4x4x4...

this is for the dedges step.

When i put my edges in the workspace (yay me), i have made my u slice turn, and all 4 come together. The problem is, the 8 dedge pairs on top and bottom are all solved, so i have nothing to replace them with!!! (to "put back" when its done)

Furthermore, ALL 8 are in the middle layers (workspace), so I can't move it out either... what do i do, just replace it before making the u turn and "solve it normally"?

I'm pretty sure there should be an auto alg that does it for me!!! T_T

This is for REDUCTION 4x4x4 method, since I love doing centres, and they're easy!! ^^

EDIT: I also just realized that if i did that, i'd lose a dedge and would have to revert to that algorithm that does 2 by the end...

I don't want to do that; i want to learn how to solve THIS case.

If anybody could help, I'd appreciate it!! ^^

Just use two at a time edge pairing for all dedges/tredges (4x4/5x5), most fast people use it. It is getting less done at a time, but you can do two two pairs more quickly than one 4 at a time.

Also, there is no special alg. Those who use that edge pairing method have to finish with two at a time edge pairing, unless you get an extremely RARE case.
