New type of MGLS?

[jtjogobonito]

Hi I have discovered a new method similar to MGLS. Here are the step:

1. Get three pieces of the cross.
2. get any 3 F2L slots filled (correctly).
3. Use F2LL (http://pagesperso-orange.fr/absolutemind/f2ll-angl.htm) to orient the corners
4. Use a combination of M-slice moves and U face moves to put the last edge in and orient the edges.
5. PLL to finish.


Please tell me what you think of this idea for a method.

I like the idea but the problem is for the F2LL What if the CE pair is pointing the other way?

Also, I like the idea of orienting using the edges!

It makes more sense to just consider doing CLS before ELS than considering it a weird WV thing. I've been told people have found algs for this.
It wouldn't be a new type of MGLS, but rather a new variant of Fridrich, complement of MGLS for net LS+OLL.

Thing is, you would have a lot of MUR algs for ELS, but they'd require some R and r turns.
Straight 2-gen is more consistent, and better for OH.

Okay due to the recent solves I have been getting (sub 20 and even a sub 15) I am going to continue with this method and maybe ask for asssistance if I need it. Please post or PM me saying if you can help me develop this method more.


To answer some of the questions:
@lotsofsloths: You can change the alg so L= R' and R=L', I believe.
@lucas: I called it a "new type of MGLS" because you orient the U layer twice when inserting a piece into the F2L.

This is an interesting idea, but for step #3, what if it is a separated pair? What not just get all 4 cross pieces? Also, what are your times for regular CFOP?

I like the idea but the problem is for the F2LL What if the CE pair is pointing the other way?

Just do the mirror alg.

interesting. I'm unsatisfied with my LL move count at the moment and would not want to learn all the OLL ever.

@Lt-UnReal: If I understand what you mean by a seperated pair(like R U R' right?)Then you would pair the CE pair up and move it to the side then do F2LL. To answer your second question I average around 17-16 seconds with CFOP, but my best average is 15.52.


I tried to see how many moves this method takes, and i found thatit is sub 60 with intuitive algorithms for step 4.

I have finished developing my method and created a name for step 4 F2ELL. There are 70 algorithms for the F2LL(56) and F2ELL(14). I need to find a way to upload the page onto jtjogobonito.110mb.com check it within a week(maybe) to find the algorithms.

Looking forward to it.
