Easy / Lucky / Hard / Weird scrambles Thread

[fun at the joy]

I got a sub 6 first try and I got a dot case G perm.

I did the same solution but messed up so I got like a mid-8

4 move yellow XX-Cross, this probably would've been my PB if I wasn't locking up all the time.

9.52, with 2-look OLL you end up with Z-Perm

Is this skewb scrmable legal? 3 move solve

R' B' L' U' B U B L'
Is this skewb scrmable legal? 3 move solve

I don't see a 3 move solution, but if there is one then no, it's not legal

Try the white layer. Or maybe I just can't scramble a skewb correctly.
Edit: yeah I can't scramble it right, I thought the back corner was fixed, not the front (facepalm)

Time?

not my sramble so I didn't time it

nice triple x cross pb scramble(3.26)
U' B2 D B2 L2 B2 L2 U' L2 U' B F R B D F' U' L' F' R

Solution:
z2 y'// inspection
L' F' R B'// TRIPLE X-cross
R U' R' U' (R U R' U')3// last pair

nice triple x cross pb scramble(3.26)
U' B2 D B2 L2 B2 L2 U' L2 U' B F R B D F' U' L' F' R

Solution:
z2 y'// inspection
L' F' R B'// TRIPLE X-cross
R U' R' U' (R U R' U')3// last pair

So did you see that doing 16 moves for the last pair instead of 8 would skip?

i dont under stand

 

[icarneiro]

@RJcub3r

The normal and most efficient way to solve the last pair is U' R U2 R' U R U' R' (8 moves) that wouldn't make you skip OLL/PLL

It doesn't make sense for you to solve the last pair like: R U' R' U' (R U R' U')x3 (16 moves) without predicting skip.

Weird...

I suspect because of this that it's a fake scramble.

i predicted a oll skip. i made my own set of algs for some special cases and this was one of them

 

[ProStar]

i predicted a oll skip

Is that the normal way you solve that F2L case?

 

[RJcub3r]

sometimes if i see that i could skip oll. i recognise it when all edges are oriented and the corners form a sune shape when you treat yellow and white the same

I might be way wrong here, but I think that's TTLL.

 

[Etotheipi]

TTLL is a PLL extension. I think what you mean is CTLS (I bet I got the terminology wrong, whatever Im too lazy to google if I'm wrong) Edit: Yeah its TSLE.
