megaminx theory

[Bogyo]

I would like to share my awesome method with you:

1. Solve the first side (white) of the puzzle. It's usually easier to start with corners and then finish with edges because putting in an edge (5 moves) is less moves than putting in a corner (4 moves). Naturally there are some mad people who starts with edges...

2. Solving the opposite (gray or yellow) side of the puzzle. This is much easier than the first step, because you have more unsolved pieces, and this means that you can't mess up the solved side.

3. Solving the remaining 9 coners. There isn't any alg for this, just use your brain, try to do this intuitively. You don't have to solve the last one, because sometimes you have LC (last corner) skip. The chance of this is only 1:1, so it's possible that you will have to do OLL parity on it.
Wrong corner at UFR: R U' L' U R' U' L U

4. Solving the edges with 3-cycles and EO algs.
The best 3-cycle alg: (R U R' U R U2')*2 U3' (R' U' R U' R' U2 R)*4 U2'
You can do the EO with commutators.

I'm still working on a center 2-cycle so if someone have a good alg which doesn't contains E turns (M turn is not a problem, because it's not uncomfortable) please share it with me.

That's all, I hope I helped you.

Or you could use ZB.

I prefer to throw mine into a wall after taking an hour to find a piece. (I don't have a mega fortunately)

But nice method. I can't believe it hasn't been thought of before!!1!!

Let me be the first one to seriously say that I like the way how cubedude456 figured this out for himself. He never said this was new or revolutionaire. He really puzzled and found a solution.

Congrats.

(and yes, your description is a beginners version of how everyone else solves megaminxes, that is why they are giving you a hard time. Just ignore them and keep practising)

Thank you this is the first time i have ever had a super moderator comment on one of my threads. Thank you for taking the time to look at one of my threads you must look at thousands of threads
