Blindfolded M2 Help and Discussion thread

[CrispyCubing]

I'm learning M2. For the special case where if you have I, C, W, or S(Speffz) as the second letter in the pair, you solve the opposite piece(C and W & I and S being the opposites), should I memorize like normal and during exec realize I should do the opposite letter, or should I memo the opposite letter and exec like normal?

If you are memoing and you come upon W as the second letter then you would have to consciously switch to C. That could mess up your memo because it would kinda break up your tracing flow if you know what I mean.

I memo the correct letter and switch the alg in exec. (For me, it’s better to do that extra thinking in exec rather than memo)

Probably try both and then do what is most comfortable for you.

Yeah same, It's probably better to do it in memo and trust yourself in execution but I don't do that.

Having some trouble with cases where you have parity and an edge flip. Is it correct to say that if the buffer is twisted you have to do parity first and then flip?

How would you deal with this case? (white top/green front) L B' L2 U' L2 B2 D R2 F2 D' L2 U2 L2 F R' U' F2 R B2 U Fw Uw2

What orientation do you use? Advice will be hard to give on a scramble if I'm showing you in a different orientation

You have to do corner and edge twists after solving the rest of the cube(so do edges->parity->corners->twists). So I'd solve edges, do parity, solve corners, then correct any twists
