The "Request an Alg" Thread

[mati1242]

Thank you !

VisualCube is really useful for making pictures of cubes; I used it for my avatar too.

On the same (R U R' U')x3 subject what do most people do when this case is in the wrong slot diagonally?

U2 L2 u L2 u' L2 is short and solves the case in Methuselah's post, which I think is what you're asking.

Asking for this one again.
What's a good alg for OLL 35 held with the 2x2 in the LB position? (Same as inverse sexysledge)

I use: L U2' r2 F r U' r U2' L'

 

[cubingallday]

What algs do people use for OLL 29 and OLL 30?

 

[guysensei1]

What algs do people use for OLL 29 and OLL 30?

I use M U (R U R' U') (R' F R F') M' and mirror for the other one.

 

[G2013]

I use
r U2 R' U' R U' r' U R U R' U R U2 R'
l' U2 L U L' U l U2 R U2 R' U' R U' R'

 

[Ranzha]

I use
(R' F R F') (R U2 R' U') (F' U' F)
F (R' F R2 U' R' U' R U R') F2'

Why not just use U2+standard alg?

You can just use 2look:
(F U R U' R' F') U (R' U2 R U R' U R)
or
(R' U' F' U F R) U (R' U' R U' R' U2 R)

Other <RUF>
F U' R' F R2 U R' U' F' R U R' F'
R2' F R F' R U2 R' U R U2 R' U' R

another:
R2' D' r U' r' D r U R U' M

And what are some easy to learn algs for the puretwist sune and antisune 2GLLs?

gogogo Sune+Uperm

I found this by hand, it's fun but longer than 2look lol

Where can I find algs for the pyraminx FP cases with a 3-cycle on the first layer?

 

[Parity Case]

Anyone know a better rotationless alg for this F2L please?

Alg: R B R' U' R' U R B'

Setup: B R' U' R U R B' R'

The alg is fairly fast, but I don't like that when I do the alg (or variants, say with some l and l' moves thrown in), my hands ends up in an inconvenient position for transitioning to other F2L or OLL moves (also my right hand ends up blocking my view of the top a bit).

Lw U Lw' U' R' U Lw U' x (yepp, it's the same alg )

or:

R' U2 R U' R' U2 R U2 R' U R

or:

(U) r' U M' U' R U M U' M'

(I just made up these.)

http://mzrg.com/rubik/solving/pyraminx/index.html does that help you?

 

[Parity Case]

@ Renslay
@ GuRoux

thak you both - those are all better than the one I was using and my variants. I'll give them all a proper trial this week and find out which fits my turning style best.

Cheers!

If this case occurs in the BL slot and I want to insert it in the FR slot, how would you guys do that? Rotationless or M-slice algs would be appreciated.
I already know that U2 R2 u R2 u' R2 works, but I'm looking for other algs.

 

[NooberCuber]

does anyone have an alg for the G(c) perm with headlights on the right and the 1x2 bar in fromt
besides
R2' F2 R U2 R U2 R' F R U R' U' R' F R2

thanks

Brute force isn't actually that bad: L U' R' U2 R2 U R2 U M (x) It flows pretty nicely

What's wrong with that alg?

You could do (U2) R2 u' R U' R U R' u R2 y R U' R'

5x5x5 parity and must know 5x5x5 algs to solve the 5x5x5 well
