What is the UWR for 2x2x2 multi bld?

 

[James Ludlow]

If my timer turns off halfway through a solve, is it a DNF or do I get another try with an extra scramble?

Get a new scramble and try again, unless for some reason it's not a timer malfunction.

You get another attempt becuase it is a timer malfunction.

What is a comm to solve this.

do r2 F2 y' lU'rD2r'Ul'U2lU'rD2r'Ul'U2 y F2 r2

kinda commy
what method are you using?

edit
nope doesnt work, let me find one that does

r' L2 f y' r' U' l' D2 l U r U2 r' U' l' D2 l U r U2 y f' L2 r

 

[MaeLSTRoM]

Maybe this will work. (Taken from KBCM step 5 case 4-1 + 3-2)

(y' x') U2 l2 U' L' U M2 U' L U r2 U2

do r2 F2 y' lU'rD2r'Ul'U2lU'rD2r'Ul'U2 y F2 r2

r' L2 f y' r' U' l' D2 l U r U2 r' U' l' D2 l U r U2 y f' L2 r

I really don't care if it's a comm or not but that would be the easiest way to find it I think.

for my method I keep switching between K4 and reduction. I might make some petrus verson of K4.

Maybe this will work. (Taken from KBCM step 5 case 4-1 + 3-2)

(y' x') U2 l2 U' L' U M2 U' L U r2 U2

This isn't what I was looking for. I want to solve that exact case.


Edit: best I have found so far is M [F' R d2 R' F, U'] M' or M F' R d2 R' F U' F' R d2 R' F U M'
Edit2: same concept M [3R' 3U r2 3U' 3R, U] M' or M 3R' 3U r2 3U' 3R U 3R' 3U r2 3U' 3R U' M'

 

[MaeLSTRoM]

Got it!
Do a y and then
[f'by2 : [F' R u2 R' F, U]]

 

[vcuber13]

Edit: best I have found so far is M [F' R d2 R' F, U']

probably the best

F2L OLL and PLL In 2 Days

Ok I just Memorized like a billion algorithms and in 2 days...

I Am Very Very slow... My time has increased 1 minute...

Should I go back to LBL Or Keep At it.

 

[MrIndianTeen]

OK first off you probably didn't memorize EVERY algorithm in fridrich. If you by some cubing miracle did, then stay with fridrich. It increased my times by 4 minutes at first(I was averageing 50s) but now I average 22 seconds.

 

[vcuber13]

opp adj separation that keeps cp?

 

[Squishypants]

Got it!
Do a y and then
[f'by2 : [F' R u2 R' F, U]]

What does the comma do in these algorithms?

 

[uberCuber]

What does the comma do in these algorithms?

commutator notation

[A, B] = A, B, inverse of A, inverse of B

Keep at it and practice F2L a LOT,that is where it matters

 

[vcuber13]

its for comms

Some of the following algorithms are written in commutator or conjugate notation. With this notation, [X,Y] translates to XYX'Y', and [X:Y] translates to XYX'.

is this megaminx v1 or v2?

I have it, so is there a way to find out?

If I uploaded a picture of the mech, could someone tell me?

 

[Feryll]

Where is a good text guide for 4bld r2? I really just need some good algorithms for the r and l slices, actually. I remember an old site that had what what I was looking for, but that was so many months ago.

 

[RyanReese09]

Most commonly used advanced megaminx method? Site to learn (text or video, doesn't matter)?

 

[danthecuber]
