The "Request an Alg" Thread

[Rubiksboy1]

F2LOL, I recommend you try out all of these algorithms, and use whichever you are most comfortable with.
I think Endgame's making a joke, "FRUR'U'F' is a Y-perm b******". Look it up.

I need a 2-gen e perm

 

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

I need a 2-gen e perm

Can't be done. 2-gen preserves the permutation of LL corners, so you can only do edge PLLs 2-gen.

 

[TMOY]

He didn't specify the puzzle. 2-gen corner perms can be done on the megaminx for example.

I need a 2-gen e perm

[R' U L' D2 L U' R, U2]
R' U L' D2 L U' R U2 R' U L' D2 L U' R U2
<R' U L D2 L U' R, U2>

2 gen in movegroupe =P

sexy+sledgehammer is a ZBLL

I thought so as well.

i've looked every where but i can't seem to find the k4
parity alg where 2 single wing edges are switched
thanks

 

[ottozing]

r U2 r U2 F2 r F2 l' U2 l U2 r2

or

r U2 r' U2 r' U2 l U2 r' U2 r U2 F2 r2 F2 l'

 

[CJF2L 1]

r U2 r U2 F2 r F2 l' U2 l U2 r2

or

r U2 r' U2 r' U2 l U2 r' U2 r U2 F2 r2 F2 l'

is the r inner layer or double layer:rolleyes:

edit: i figured it out but the first one doesn't work?

 

[ottozing]

The first one definately works

 

[JasonK]

r U2 r U2 F2 r F2 l' U2 l U2 r2
r U2 r' U2 r' U2 l U2 r' U2 r U2 F2 r2 F2 l'

They definitely both work.

I complete Cross+F2L in approx 11 seconds. Here's the set up for an F2L case that gets me: R2 U R' U R U2 R2 y' R U R' U2. Assume you can't see the last pair.. only the one that goes in BR. I usually do: (R U R' U2) (R U R' U2) y R U R'. Any idea on how to insert this without a cube rotation? Thanks!

 

[BPM]

Instead of y do d' U R U R'

(R' F R F') U (R U' R') U' (R' U' R)
but I would just do y (R U' R') U' (R U' R') U2 (R U' R')

Intuitively I would do:
(R' U' R U') (R' U R' F R F' R)

Shorter alternatives:
(U) R' F' U' F2 R' F' R2
R' F R' F' R' f' U' f
R' F R' F' R2 U' R' U R
R' U R f U R U' R f'
R' U R U' f U R2 U' f'
(U2) f U R' U' f' R' U' R
(U2) R' U2 R' U' F' U F R2
(U) R' F' r U' r' F2 U' R
(U) R' U' R' U' F' U F R2

if anyone wants any F2L cases i highly recommend ottozings video

I learned an F2L alg yesterday, got the case in a solve today and couldn't remember it...



Red on front, BL slot unsolved. It was short and had Uw moves.

The Wiki [WIKI]F2L[/WIKI] page should have it.
