If there is an OLL in which the standard alg gives a diagonal corner swap, is it worth it to use a different alg, which is a bit worse but will give an adjacent corner swap?
How much worse is "a bit worse"? Please give an example.If there is an OLL in which the standard alg gives a diagonal corner swap, is it worth it to use a different alg, which is a bit worse but will give an adjacent corner swap?
For example if I have a pi shaped OLL, in which the standard 2 gen alg gives a diagonal corner swap, and instead I do R' U' F' R U R' U' R' F R2 U2 R' U2 R, which gives an adjacent swapHow much worse is "a bit worse"? Please give an example.
Absolutely not worth it.For example if I have a pi shaped OLL, in which the standard 2 gen alg gives a diagonal corner swap, and instead I do R' U' F' R U R' U' R' F R2 U2 R' U2 R, which gives an adjacent swap
Circular versus square, I think? You should ask Cubicle directly (and then update your post with the answer).I guess this is where I post this question...It didn't seem to fit in any of the other categories.
What is the difference between 3x3 and 3x3/C cube sticker logos?

I can only remember the potentially worse VHLS r' U r U' r' U' r... (i can do it fast 2H)what's the best rotationless insert for backslots with misoriented edges OH . Normally I use f R' f' or f R' f', but those are impractical. There might be one I've never heard of before. Or is the best choice simply to rotate and insert 2-gen?

I don’t know what you mean by impractical. It’s very practical.what's the best rotationless insert for backslots with misoriented edges OH .

Oh, I didn’t see that. Oops! But I guess that I just rotate to insert pairs. Or use ZZ.for OH?
For the U COLL (or CMLL) cases, I started out using four stickers to recognize. If the misoriented corners are in UBL and UBR, then the four stickers I would use are FUL, FUR, UBL, and UBR. The cases would be left column, right column, back row, front row, X checkerboard, and columns. Obviously in other orientations where you cannot see all four stickers, you would need either another way to recognize, or be able to deduce what one of the stickers you cannot see are. Figuring out what the last sticker with only three out of four is easy, so I just deduce one corner and immediately know the case (assuming I'm not being bad and flicking the U face to recognize. I am very guilty of that). That's basically what I did when I started 1-look CMLL for U cases and it is what I still do now.what's the best way to associate L and U COLL commutator cases with each alg / inverse / mirror / mirror inverse?
I'm having a hard time diferentiating each alg

I just mentally call one of them "the first one I learnt" and "not that one, the other one" to distinguish between the mirror cases. (This is also why there are two pi CLL cases I actually can't differentiate at all: I learnt them together with mirror algs.)what's the best way to associate L and U COLL commutator cases with each alg / inverse / mirror / mirror inverse?
