I've been doing a lot of work with APB-inspired things. This post documents several of them. If any are interesting to y'all, let me know.

Title APB-OP

Setup

B2 D F2 U' L2 R2 F2 U' R2 U L2 B D U L' B L' R D F R

Moves

x2 D2 F2 U M' D B' //FB
r2 U2 r' //2x2x3

R' U S' R' U2 R U2 S //Right Block
U f R U R' U' f' //OLL
R U' R' U' R U R D R' U' R D' R' U2 R' U' //PLL

APB-OP does 2x2x3, forms F2L pairs, does an algorithm to solve the right block, OLL, then PLL.

Twizzle link

Title APB-CX

Setup

B2 D F2 U' L2 R2 F2 U' R2 U L2 B D U L' B L' R D F R

Moves

x2 D2 F2 U M' D B' //FB
r2 U2 r' //2x2x3
R2 U' R2' //BR Pair
R' U R' S R S' U2 R //Block+Pair
U R U2 R' U2 R U R' U' R U R' //OCLC
U' F R' F R2 U R' U' F2 U' r U' r' F //XLL

APB-CX does 2x2x3, forms the DBR F2L pair, does an algorithm to solve the pair+DR+FR, orients all corners while inserting DFR (OCLC; orient corners last corner), then XLL (corners-oriented 1lll).

Twizzle link

Title APB-D

Setup

B2 D F2 U' L2 R2 F2 U' R2 U L2 B D U L' B L' R D F R

Moves

x2 D2 F2 U M' D B' //FB
r2 U2 r' //2x2x3

U R U R' U' S' U S //EO-D-Pair
U2 R2 U' R' U R U2 R //D-LXS
U D' R U R' U R U' R' U' D R2 U' R U' R' U R' U R2 U2 //ZBLL

APB-D does 2x2x3, forms a pair with DR, does EO Pair, does a new version of LXS, then ZBLL.

APB-OP and APB-CX are my own ideas, while APB-D was thought of by Athefre.
