Memo edges in letters.
Start at UF go clockwise, then LF cw, DF cw and end at RD.
Let the positions be named B C D F G L M N P R S T in the order described above.
Memo 2 edges at a time by making words consisting of 2 of the above letters that are together in the cycle.
B (UF) or what ever piece that you start the cycle with shall be the buffer. Whatever piece that will end there after the cycle algorithm is free to be flipped or not, so long as the other 2 pieces in the cycle are completely solved.
While memorizing the position cycle 2 pieces at a time, you can also memorize their orientation. If both are correct, let the last vowel be A. If only first is correct, let the last vowel be E. If only the 2nd is correct, let the last vowel be I. If neither are correct, let the last vowel be U or O.
I think this is very effective for edges, but corners are a bit tricky because there are 3 orientations. I suppose I'll do visual.
If there are non moving pieces that are wrongly oriented, should I just orient them first as in simple 3 cycle?
