What do you mean you forget the "orientation" do you mean that you forget which side to perform the algorithm from, or something? I would get those algorithms down, especially the G's which come up very often before you learn anymore. Which ones do you still have left?

he probably means permutation, both have headlights but different other stuff.

I mean like when I have to hold the cube a certain way to swap the pieces, I just end up holding it the wrong way. Aannd, I have the Z, J(a), E, and N perms left.

I would learn get your G perms down really good along with your As, then you should learn the Z and E perms because they are necessary for knowing 2 look PLL. After that definitely the J, it is one of the easiest PLLs to learn. Ns will only come up like 2 out of 72 times, so they are not super important to learn until you get the rest of your PLL learned, but they are pretty easy if you use the mirrored cases. Good luck!
 
Little letters in 3x3 algorithms

I am doing my first solve using CFOP and I come across d, l, and r as well as M, E, S slice moves and your normal R, R2, R', U, U2, U', F, F2, F', D, D2, D', B, B2, B', L, L2, L' that you find in 3x3 algorithms

What do d, l, and r mean(and no I am not talking about inner face rotations on a 4x4) because they are not x, y, z rotations, your normal face moves, or M, E, S slice moves.

Are they sort of like M', E', and S' or are they a completely different concept from cube rotations, slice moves, and face moves that I haven't seen before till now.

For me and the algs I use that usually means turn both layers associated with that side. For example an r would mean that you turn both of the right layers, so the right layer and the middle layer together.

r is the same as Rw, turn the two layers on the right clockwise.

Springy Sound

Hi cubers,

I have a month-old Moyu Weilong. It's very fast and quite smooth. It hasn't been lubricated yet, and I have neither tightened nor loosened it.

It makes a strange, annoying, springy sound.

How can I fix this?

Thanks in advance,
Rainbow Flash

Lube the core using CrazyBadCubers tutorial, he explains why it makes that sound, and how to fix it.
