Yoo, I got a 9.08 first try which would have been PB2 because you can pseudoslot first two pairs

 

[OtaMota]

Oh yeah, that did not cross my mind.

 

[Cubinginatree]

Oh yeah, that did not cross my mind.

That joke sucks.
Sorry didn’t mean to be so cross.

Nice when I tried it and got a 13, I made an XCross with the BR pair, I knew pseuslotting was possible but the twisted corner intimidated me.

Is it an X cross if the cross is already solved before 1st pair?

 

[Skewby_Doo]

Is it an X cross if the cross is already solved before 1st pair?

hmmm

 

[SpeakCuba]

Is it an X cross if the cross is already solved before 1st pair?

Don’t think so.

 

[An Animating Cuber]

Nah not really, I just did keyhole for the first pair and decided to call it expanding the cross into an XCross
