New megaminx scramble notation

[Erik]

Using Johannes's scrambler on the 15x4 setting, which is 60 moves, the 5 scrambles I tried seemed to be sufficiently scrambled. I visually can't tell any difference between the official notation and the new. On the first scramble, there are only 2 CE pairs matched up but of 2 completely different colors. I'm not sure how to go about the math of scrambling, but I'm pretty sure that 60 moves can be considered sufficient.

That includes the cube rotation which is not a move...

Until the scramble quality has been found to be sufficient (at least equivalent to the current official WCA way), I'd rather not use the new version in official competitions yet. Especially not with a lot fewer moves.

Ok, but there is a month until the competition, maybe that is worked out by then.

Also, the WCA forum might be a better place to ask this:

I know but I don't remember my log in :rolleyes:

I changed/fixed it, the puzzle rotations don't count anymore.

Did anyone else read the code from Johannes's scrambler?
He really loves one-liners.

I use a Perl script to expand macros and remove whitespace before uploading .js-files.
