Hello all,

Me and some others are working on some algorithms for the TCMLL-N set on this sheet. For those who don't know, this is a Roux extension which twists unsolved pieces in a Second Block slot while solving the corners of the last layer. But since a lot of algorithms on the sheet we currently have are either unoptimized or haven't been generated yet, I have decided to select one case each day and optimize it as much as I could.

Each day, I will post a TCMLL case and try to optimize the alg. I will then post the alg in this forum and link a video of the execution of the case.

Feel free to discuss these algorithms or ask questions about the set in this forum

Without further ado, here is today's case.

3a Diagonal O

Best algorithm: R' F R2 U' R' U' R U2 R' U' F' U2 R U R'

Today's TCMLL alg is 3a H Columns.

Best algorithm: R U' R' U' R U' r' U M' r U r' (and alternate executions)

Funny but bad algorithm: (R U2 R' U2) (R' U' R) (F' U' R' U2 R F)

I thought you were me for a second 😭

But awesome idea, I just need to finish actual CMLL first before learning any of this.
 
Today’s TCMLL alg is 3a H Bars

Best algorithm: R U’ R’ U’ R U’ R’ U R’ U’ R F R’ U R U’ R’ F’ R (yes the best alg is 19 moves; this is one of the worst cases)

 Setup 
F R U R' U' R U R' U' R U R' U' F' R U' M2 U2 M' U' r'

(sorry for two in a row, I was busy last night)

Today's TCMLL alg is 3a Pi Twist (CP solved)

Best algorithm: r U M' U R' U R U' R' U2 R U' R'

Honorable Mention: r' U r2 U' r2 U' R2 U2 M' U' R' (Thanks @OreKehStrah!)

I'd personally use: r U M' R' U2 R U2 R' U2 R U' R'
 
Today's TCMLL alg is 3a Pi Slash.

I'm not sure what's actually the best alg, so today we have two to choose from.

Alg 1: R U' f R' U R U' R' U R U' R2 f' R'

Alg 2: F' U F R U R' U R U' R' U2 R U2 R'

Execution and Fingertricks

Alg 1:

 Setup 
R U' M2 U2 M' U' r' F R' F' R U2 R U' R' U R U2 R'
 Moves 
U R U' f R' U R U' R' U R U' R2 f' R'


Alg 2:

Love the work yous are doing for roux !
I personally dont like roux much (not a fan of M U spam) but its nice to see new ideas beginning to be implemented into methods.
