(scramble a z y' away from orientation)
I literally did not use my edge buffer once in the entire solve. I ended up using 3 different floating buffer cases and one edge flipping comm (cos UB/UL swap parity) sadly misrecognised one of the cases but guess I'll never see something like this again for a while

what do you guys think of MUD algs?
M2 U' M' D' M U M' D M'

also found a weird fingertrick alg
S U' M' U2 M U' S'
I do the S moves with my ring finger

MUD algs are alright as long as you can execute them well consistently.

Also I have no idea how you're using your ring finger for the S moves in the 2nd alg, I naturally use left index for the 1st S, bringing UR to RD

For S, use your right ring finger to push on RD.

now that I see it, i think doing it your way with the left index is much better

ah woops, I meant right index for the first S my bad (I usually do Ms with left btw)

I'm not too sure how to explain this properly, but in 3bld, I memo corners first and if I get parity I'll memo UB and UL to swap with each other and execute like so when I execute edges. Would it be possible to use an alternative form of this parity in multibld, using corners first memo AND execution? If you memoed a sticker which goes on to UB for instance, you'd still memo it as UB but you would continue memoing the cycle from UL instead as after doing corners, the pieces would be swapped. Does anyone using UBL buffer and memo and exec corners first use something like this?

EDIT: Gonna chuck here to avoid triple posting but are there any good UBL parity lists (as alternatives to y perm setups)?

I'm pretty sure no one has double the official MBLD points as their age right?

since there are a few who have even the same number of points as thier age.

unofficially I have gotten 34 points (which is double my age of 17) but not in comp yet.
the only other person I know who was done this (unofficially) is Mark Boyanowski with 40 points

He has a 40/40!?

If I actually did MBLD at home I might be able to get 32/32

yep

what's a good comm for UBL>RUF>BDR ? right now im using R'U'[y D F D'F', U'] (i think thats notation for comms?)

[R' U:[R' D' R, U]]

Does anyone use this edge comm for IQ (DF-FU-BU) or is it too messy?
U' M (U M U2 M' U) M' U

i use it. can't find anything better

I use.

U' M (U M U2 M' U) M' U

I use it, too Best Alternative is x y [U' M' U, R2] but rotationless MU is better

what is the WR for official 2/2 MBLD? I got a 2/2 in 1:23 at Asians, does anyone know of anything better?

if your corner buffer is UBL and your orientation is WCA then you can solve your first 4 corner targets with (R U2 R' U2)*3

who said 2-gen can't affect CP

Lol, possible 5-style case using 2-gen...
