For the Chameleon case:

<R, U>
(U') R U R U' R' U2 R' U2 R U' R U2 R' U2 R'
R' U' R U R U' R' U2 R' U2 R U' R U2 R' (U2)

<R, U, L>
R U R' U R U2 R' L' U' L U' L' U2 L

Where can I find a list of images showing all possible floppy cube positions?

Whats a good alg to just flip 2 adjacent corners? Like, a chameleon OLL, but the corners are just flipped

There are 2 typical blindfold algs for this:

Twist UFL clockwise and ULB ccw:

(R U R' U') (R U R' U') L' (U R U' R') (U R U' R') L

Twist UFL ccw and ULB cw:

(U R U' R') (U R U' R') L' (R U R' U') (R U R' U') L

Since ULB is my buffer in BLD, I usually think of the first as cw, which starts with sexy move, then ccw is sexy move in reverse.

What should I do to become less noobish in these three areas:

-Cubing
-Making useful threads
-Speedsolving Forum

...? Yeah this was more 3 questions than one, but whatever.

 

[DaijoCube]

Cubing : read more, try more variants, practice, GO SLOW LOOK AHEAD (GSLA).

Making Useful Threads : Try search. If nothing is found, make a thread. Make a clear title. Try to type as good as you can. Be clear. Oh, GOOGLE.

Speedsolving Forum : More posts. More good posts. Bring it something you got : videos, pictures, informations, tricks, documents and so on.

The squares from the top of my magic are not perfectally alligned with the bottom squares. When I'm solving, the 2nd last flip always gets screwed up. This is because the one square is basically under the other square, which bring up both squares when I only want one to come up.

If this makes any sense, can it be fixed?

If I were to start learning ZBLL, how does recognition work? I read in the wiki to recognize the COLL case, so does that mean I have to learn COLL first? also, which cases should I learn first?

i would ask 4chan on this one, but i would (with my limited experience) say you should definitely learn COLL first, then see if you want to go on learning

 

[yeee707]

Thanks. I'm torn between switching to roux or sticking with fridrich and learning the olls, the colls, then some zbll. Is it better to do COLL and EPLL, or full OLL and PLL?

Depends if edges are oriented.

How do you figure out your actual average? I wouldn't consider my PB avg as a actual average, would you do an avg of 100 or something?

sure. And you should have a general idea of what you average around. But yeah, average of 100 is good practice too.

Do I loosen or tighten the screws on a DIY to prevent lock-ups?

Do I loosen or tighten the screws on a DIY to prevent lock-ups?

Tighten. I'm not sure why this is, it just is. But it still WILL lock up if you don't turn it accurately. It's like, you need to balance corner cutting with lockiness.

Why did I type "DIY"? I'm talking about my F-II so corner cutting isn't really an issue, thanks for the quick reply though. =)

I just got my miniQJ 444 and the core is massively prelubed but all the space between the pieces are not really lubed.

Will it be ok if I add some Jigaloo?

fallofshadows is pretty good.
