A Collection of Algorithms

Looked through some old algs and found an N perm I was playing with a while ago. Found a different execution which has potential:
R U2 R (D' U') R2' D R D' R2 U R' (D U2) R'

Can't remember if I ever posted this or if it's even new.

 

[TDM]

(R2 U')5 [y' x'] M' U2 M

Edit: F perm: R' U R' U' R D' R' D R' U2 D' R2 U' R2 U' R2 U D R2 U' R2
Found it in this pastebin, along with 116 other RUD F perms.
R' U R' U' R D' R' D R' U2 D' R2 U' R2 D R2 U' D' R2 D R2 is another good one.

 

[TDM]

([R U2 R':R' F R F'] U')2

 

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

z u2 2R2 u2 2R2 U2 (l' r' z') U R' U R U' R B2 R' U R' U' R U B2
z u2 2R2 u2 2R2 U2 (l' r' z') U R' U R U' R B2 R' U R' U' R (z 3l) U2

I had algs for both E-perm + PLL parity from a while back, tried to relearn them today only to discover both my algs solved the same case. So I made this, I think it's nice, and also cool. Second one is to try to show how I execute the end.

Random Algs

Have you ever thought of a random alg whilst turning your cube? Because this is the place to post them.
The algs that you post don't have to be for example a new z perm, but something that just...does something.
the other day I came up with this alg (sorry if you came up with this before me) x' RW' U RW' DW2 RW U' RW' DW2 RW2 X U'
This basically is a modified a perm that kind of t perms the F face, although this might be useless you could use it for BLD but what do I know
So as I said before share your random algs helpful or useless!

thanks for pointing that out

wait wait

Rw2 B2 x2 l' U2 l' U2 F2 l' F2 l F2 l' F2 l2 F2 3R l

What's with the ending? Is it written correctly?

 

[Kirjava]

Yeah, I wrote that alg in half SiGN and half japanese notation for some reason.

Why don't more people use R2 U R2 U' R2 U R2 U' R2 for PBL? I think it's way nicer than the other alg.

There are people who don't use this?

Whilst we're on the topic, I use R2 U R2 U' y' R2 U' R2 U R2 for adj-adj when you have the bottom bar on left (top bar goes on the back). Saves on a rotation

I'm wondering that myself. Especially when I see people doing z2 and then a "normal" alg.

Although it's better than rotating, it's not very good for speed. I prefer R' F U' R2 U F' R.

How do you do the F'? I can't find a fast way of doing it.

Left index (pull UFL to LFD). It takes practice to adopt that F' but I have found that it is really worth it for 2x2.

It's not the smoothest of algs for me, but the low movecount makes up for it.

I've tried, but I just can't get the last three moves to be good at all. Please could you try something posting like this for that alg?

Personally I do the F' R with one motion of my right thumb (after doing the U with a left-index push).
Sameer's word is probably more useful than mine, but there's an alternative
