Finding Algorithms and Cases?

[BadgerSex]

I'm trying to improve corners-first by experimenting with a ZB-type method of putting the last corner or corner pair in on the D face while orienting the rest of the corners on the U face. But how can I find all of the cases that can happen for this, and how can I find the algorithms after that?

Cases are the same as CLS or SS.

And we've had a lot of threads asking how to find algs, with sufficient information about solvers. You'd get much more, better, and faster information by finding those.

Thanks. I didn't really know what to call it, but i guess the cases still aren't quite the same because you don't have to preserve the position of most of the f2l, only corners. that means i could have simpler algorithms for it.

and your webpage is cool, although a few things are missing (links to pdf don't always work, etc.)

i think you shld use CLS, because i don't think you would want to stay with corners first forever after that you can always use CLS for normal 3x3 ha ha.

Why that?, CF is much better than most people think, a higly optimised CF can do the cube in 45 STM on average. Using 3 tps that gives 15 second averages, some cubers can do 4-5 tps...

the problem i believe is in slice moves. slice moves are still slower than face moves yea? ha ha.

Mmm, on a loose flat centre cube, I don't know. But you get more lockups of course...

I agree. But I would rather try to optimize edges than corners, since edges are usually the slowest part of CF...
