Any good?

 

[Kirjava]

wtf are you smoking? zbf2l?

ohwow 4x4x4 alg; F' R d2 R' F U' F' U2 R d2 R' U2 F U (DanCohen)

[Robert-Y]

nutritious W OLL (found by hand): r' R2 U2 L' U' L U2 R' U l' U2 L

EDIT: It's also a great OLLCP alg too if you use that common RFU alg

EDIT2: It's also not bad for OH

ohwow 4x4x4 alg; F' R d2 R' F U' F' U2 R d2 R' U2 F U (DanCohen)

pureopp2fliponD; (R'FRU')*3 r'FRU' (R'FRU')*2 M'

I executed the 'd2's as Dw2 at first and it's also a LL alg, in case you didn't notice.

RUR'U'F'U2FURUR' does exactly the same thing O_O

 

[Robert-Y]

Kir: Darn it

But anyway: M U (F R U R' U' F') M'. Maybe it's been found before but I didn't see it in the wiki.


...And if anyone's interested:

How was it found? Well I noticed that F R U R' U' F' is a short alg. Then I noticed that it (obviously) leaves the orientation of some pieces alone. So I knew that doing M U to put the DB edge in the UR position, then doing F R U R' U' F' to orient pieces, will leave the DB edge unflipped and all I had to do was do M' to return the DB edge to its original position.

This is one way of finding new algs and I use this method a lot. I never try to predict the end result, I just try them out and see what happens.

FRURUF based pureflips;

F U R U' R' F' R' F' U' F U R U2
R' U' F' U F R U' F U R U' R' F' U

Forte found;

F RUR'U' F' y F RUR'U' F' U2
F URU'R' F' y' F URU'R' F' U2
F RUR'U' F' y2 F' L'U'LU F U2

Robert; Now using that for OLL.

 

[Robert-Y]

F2L alg (edge flip): L' (R' U' R' F R F' U R) U L

Yeah I noticed something "useful" with the good C OLL

 

[Kirjava]

But anyway: M U (F R U R' U' F') M'. Maybe it's been found before but I didn't see it in the wiki.

Same trick, similar case; S'RUR'U'R'FRF'US

 

[Kirjava]

U2 L f' D' F' z' R U R U' R' U' x' U D l' z L2

Found by hand O_O

 

[JeffDelucia]

U2 L f' D' F' z' R U R U' R' U' x' U D l' z L2

Found by hand O_O

I call shenanigans.

 

[Anthony]

Forte found;
F RUR'U' F' y F RUR'U' F' U2

Already been found and I know some people that use it. Actually, this solve would have PLL skipped if I had used that alg. >_>

 

[freshcuber]

I thought we used the wiki to gather algorithms...

 

[Ruphea]

2x2 F R U R' U' F' for OLL

 

[Kirjava]

Found by hand O_O

I call shenanigans.

This annoyed me so much I decided to do this;

15:38:05 <+Kirjava> anyhoo
15:38:10 <+Kirjava> time to do something creative
15:38:29 <+Kirjava> I'll take the first 8 moves from a scramble and make an alg out of it
15:38:30 <+Kirjava>
15:38:33 <+Kirjava> ,3
15:38:34 <+Venim> 3x3 Scramble #12596: F' L D2 F' D' F' R F B L2 D F B' L' B L2 B2 D2 B2 D' B' F U2 F D

F' L D2 F' D' F' R F

F' L D2 F' D' F' R F x2 B' U B2 U' R' U' r'

D2 F' D' F' R x2 U B2 U' R' U' x'

D' F' D' F' R x2 U B2 U' R' U2

L F' D' F' D' F' R x2 U B2 U' R' U2 B L'

R' y' U R U R U F' R' U2 R F R2 U' y R

And if you conjugate by F' instead of R' y' it flips four edges instead of none.

 

[Escher]

R' y' U R U R U F' R' U2 R F R2 U' y R

And if you conjugate by F' instead of R' y' it flips four edges instead of none.

zomg tom you noob that destroys f2l.

 

[PatrickJameson]

As requested by Kir to post, here's a pure H flip alg I found: F R2 U R2 U' R2 F' U R2 U' R2 F R2 F' R2 U R2 U'

 

[Kirjava]

R' U2 r2 B' R2 U2 r2 B' R'

zomg

EDIT: ZOMG!
