I'm averaging around 16-17 seconds with a quite basic method me and Rob Yau came up with. It involves solving the first layer as normal and then reducing it down to 2 gen.
I was just about to point out that you have the UWR on speedsolving.comI'm averaging around 16-17 seconds with a quite basic method me and Rob Yau came up with. It involves solving the first layer as normal and then reducing it down to 2 gen.
Fair point.Well, to be fair, I basically answered your question in my response to EntireTV.
Yes, I strongly recommend the puzzle.

Oooh, nice. Care to explain further, or give an example solve or two?
Here's a more in-depth explanation: first you make the first layer as normal. Then you would solve one of the corners + the E layer edge that would go beneath it. Then you would solve the same pieces for an adjacent corner + the U edge that goes between that corner and the previously solved corner. At this point you should have two sides solved. To solve the remaining 2 corners and 5 edges you match up an edge to each corner and then you end up with a 3 cycle, which you then solve. A lot of the time a few pieces of the last step will already be solved and you can just solve it intuitively. A lot of the time it is very beneficial to preserve blocks so that the last two layers can be solved very quickly.
How're people fingertricking this? Any tips / setup?
Nice, beats my 9.89 from 2 minutes agoHate to double post, but this is pretty unrelated to my last post. Just got a 9.43 UWR single! The solve flowed really well and was decently lucky, but I didn't have any skips or anything. I'm averaging around 18 now.

Use RubikSkewb notation?
If someone can explain this notation to me, I'll have a fast random-state scrambler written by tomorrow.
With rubikskewb, you hold a corner in front so on both layers you have a front, left, right, and back corner. Capital letters (F, L, R, and B) mean turning a top layer corner clockwise, and lower case letters are the bottom layer corners.
Cheers. I'll link it when I'm done.
E: Bummer, it's not as fast as I thought it'd be. Scrambles are also a lot longer than optimal (~20 moves).
E2: And here it is. (Average 16.5 moves, 0.15 second per scramble.)
