Some here may be familiar with the concept of super-supercubing. Normal supercubing involves positioning (or orienting) the center cubies (typically a picture cube).
Super-supercubing extends this concept to also involving inner shells on a larger cube. A 4x4x4 cube will also have a 2x2x2 inner cube, a 5x5x5 will have an inner 3x3x3, and so on.
Now the challenge. For a 5x5x5 super-supercube, find a way to twist 2 corners on the inner 3x3x3 without affecting the outer 5x5x5. What is the minimal length of such an algorithm? A super-super cube simulator (cubixplayer2) is available from the spedsolvingrubikscube yahoo group file section and was coded by me quite a few yrs back now

PS! I'm unable to attach that file with this new design. I may find a solution later:fp
