How to speedsolve the 2x2 intuitively

[uberCuber]

No. Hes asking to speedsolve it. Not the same as just an intuitive solve.

...................................................................................
Heise is a very intuitive no alg method for 3x3, and it can be used to speedsolve.

Heise is used in 3x3. You can't build blocks on 2x2. Nice try though.

I use roux to solve my 2x2.

I just thought that this was ironic (I know that Phoenix Death already pointed this out, but I wanted to be that annoying guy who links to the thread):

yes you can, but I was commenting more generally on your statement of "speedsolve =/= intuitive solve"

Notice that qq's thread was made an hour after this; I am thinking this thread is the reason qq made that in the first place.

I fail, don't I.

Although I would like to ask you, what's your definition of a speedsolve anyway? Under most definitions of speedsolving I can think of, the idea that *any* method *can't* be used to speedsolve is nonsensical.

are you asking me or Eric? Because I was the one saying that an intuitive solve can be used to speedsolve.

I was asking you, but with the understanding that you probably agree with me.

ah I see, Ill give it a go then
speedsolve - to solve a puzzle with the intention of going as fast as you can with a particular method

hello uberCuber. how ya doin'. I agree 100% with that definition of speedsolving.

 

[uberCuber]

umm...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedsolving

I have yet to figure out what the point of this post was. Anonymous asked me to give my definition of speedsolving, and I did. And the "with a particular method" part that I put at the end of my definition was as a clarification of the opinion shared by me and Anonymous that a solve can still be considered a speedsolve no matter what the method being used is, including some kind of intuitive "method."

So then, would using the Dan Brown method to solve a 3x3x3 as fast as possible be considered a speedsolve?

If you're trying to do it as quickly as possible yes. You don't need to know an advanced method to speedsolve.

1x1x2 nice try though

Well, no. On the 3^3 such blocks are corner-edge blocks, on the 2^3 they are corner-corner blocks. That makes a significant difference.

Or else you could just use Petrus, since its first step is to build a 2^3 block intuitively

What would a Heise 2x2 method be?
Making a V on the bottom and then solving the last 5 corners with commutators? Actually that sounds fun, I'll give that a go.
