Correct me if I'm wrong, but your solution doesn't solve it. It gets you to PBL, but more importantly, there is a 2 corner - 2 corner cycle which means somewhere in your solution you probably did a half turn when you shouldn't of, which the most likely form of that is not putting a ' symbol on one of your turns (so it's off by 180 degrees). This is just speculation based on my knowledge of single turns, so I could totally be wrong, but I hope this still helped you!

I really like how that solution feels! I looked at your scramble a bit and found (z' y) R2 U R' U R' U R2 (7 HTM) as a shorter version of yours. Although your solution flows a lot better than mine, so GJ!

(y') U' // CO
R' U2 R U2 // Setup
R' U2 R' F2 R // Finish
10 moves

On your scramble: (z') U' R2 U' R U2 R' U' R U' R - Only 10 moves and perhaps just as fingertricky ;)

Next- F2 U2 F R2 U' R F2 R2 U
(x y)
U R' U R // CO
U' R2 U' R2 // Setup
U y R2 U R2 U2 // Finish

Next: F2 U2 R2 F' R' F2 U F' R

You are absolutely right, I forgot to add the prime onto my first right turn. Fixed the solution and itallicised the corrected turn!
