The One-Answer Question Thread [closed]

[Brest]

I recently saw a link to a page here with COLL's for left handed people. The site seemed to have a lot of good algs, but I can't find it anymore. Has anyone seen it?

This one? http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?44150-my-website-OH-algorithms-for-OLL-PLL-COLL

I'm looking for a good PBL alg for the case in the picture (no regrips) and a good 2x2 OLL for the other case in the picture.
Anyone?

OLL: F (R U R' U')2 F'
PBL: L F' R U2 R' U R'

OLL: U'R'FR2U'R2FR
Flows really smooth. Works only for Ortega though.

Is there a good source for 3x3 CFOP OLL case probabilities (i.e., the chance each OLL case will appear in any given solve) in the absence of edge control, etc...?

To answer my own question, Andy Klise's OLL guide contains probabilities: http://www.kungfoomanchu.com/guides/andy-klise-3x3x3-oll-v3.pdf

It's a great guide that I've used a lot (without noticing the probabilities!).

Local Cubing Groups is the subforum where you can find and talk to cubers near your location.

 

[ZeldaTriforce]

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

 

[googlebleh]

OK except the cases given there with probability 1/27 actually occur in two mirrors 1/54 each. The algs on that page are pretty bad too!

Oh...oops

and lol yeah it's great to see how far algs have come

[noobium]

why are step 3-4 of Roux faster then finishing f2l(pairing and placing F and B edges)+OLL+PLL?


it seems that oll+pll is the fastest way to do LL and placing those 2 edges is really fast when you pair them like you would do 4B(with more freedom since the U layer isnt completed at all so that you dont need to orient them first).Also the recognition, for every steps seems easier (e.i placing the 2 edges doesnt touch the corners orientation making the oll recog very quick). So how is that slower than CLL+L6E?

thanks!

It's down. He (izovire) has had a lot of problems though.

I'd really like to know what he is up to now.

I ordered from him this spring and the cubes came pronto.

How do you clean your cube properly? Link? Do you put it in the dishwasher? A detailed description of the procedure would be appreciated!

Take the cube apart, rub each piece thoroughly with e.g. toilet paper. Lube, assemble and you're done.

 

[elrog]

If you have a stickerless cube you can rinse and/or wash the pieces. I wouldn't recommend using extremely hot water but it probably will be fine. I just like to be safe rather than sorry. Don't wash the core, screws, springs, or washers though.

 

[Lchu613]

Don't use extremely hot water. My friend ruined his Zhanchi that way.
To be fair he was stupid and boiled the thing. But still. Just warm water will work if you're that dedicated. I just use tissues.
