Square-1 scramble "trainer"

[Pedro]

Well, you probably know that square-1 is the biggest problem when it comes to scrambling in competitions...

pretty much everyone who can scramble it decently is competing, so unless you have Bob to scramble, you can get some trouble...

I made a simple program to invert a scramble, so you can do a normal one, then reverse it, solving the puzzle without having to learn all the algorithms

and you practice twice as much reading and performing the notation

I hope some people use this and help make the square-1 competitions and competitors happier

Nice idea. I really suck at sq-1 scrambling, I get them right about 1/5 times. You should have made it with its own scrambles, although it's still fine the way it is.

 

[Pedro]

oh, I can't really understand Jaap's code and was too lazy to write a scrambler myself
this gave me enough work for today (javascript is kinda dumb)

 

[Ellis]

Okay, that's fine, copy/paste is much easier that writing a sq-1 scrambler. Thanks.

clever idea, scrambling takes me around a minute. haha

 

[Pedro]

well, one minute is not bad, if you can scramble it correctly the first time

the main problem is that people usually mess up the scramble...then they have to call me to solve the square-1 to scramble again...and that consumes precious competition time!

Oh brilliant idea Pedro! Scrambling sq1 is the biggest issue in comps, without a doubt. Anyone that can do it wants to compete.
