This is pretty simple, just the same as other "Example Solve" games except with square-1, I don't know how popular this will get because of the stupid notation, but it was worth a try. :)

Someone can do the first solve with this scramble.

(1, 0) / (0, 3) / (2, -1) / (0, -3) / (6, 0) / (0, -3) / (6, -5) / (-3, 0) / (0, -1) / (2, -3) /

Please use random state scrambles!

I don't really know what I average, but I hope I can do a few hundred solve this week (I have time now :))
