who wants to share ideas to make the WORST METHOD for 3x3 with a few rules, (please give this post a glance)

[n0nco]

whle doing a algorithm you MUST be progressing to the starts, you also cant to L L' in a algorithm just other and other again, so you cant stall, we wanna make it fun to use so make it interesting and either really easy or really hard algorithms, make it like new or not a direct copy of something, you can combine methods and take the worst algs, but you CANNOT just make a method worse and long and then use it, we can also have different variations, lets also make it funny, like making symbols in a step or smth, if you want we can come up with a name together, and share it with a friend to get more people helping! also maybe someone can at the end write it all down and how it works and all the variations, bye!!! (tell me if you have any ideas for adding rules or tell me if i dont make sense (i wouldn't be surprised))

This is pretty bad:

I invented my own rubik'a cube method

I wanted to make my own rubik's cube method, and I think I did it! I know this method is very bad, however I don't really care about speed for this method. If this is a re-invention of a method. please let me know as I don't want to steal someone else's work. I also have a video tutorial I...

but what about a new bad method?

 

[zzcuberman]

Solve one piece at a time. That's the worst while still making progress

So... old pochmann?

Just any coms I guess idk why you'd want to anyway

 

[fes_77]

side by side

 

[ruffleduck]

Devil's algorithm

 

[FenTheGoat]

Solve one piece at a time. That's the worst while still making progress

So, we could just make it solve 1 piece at a time in the least optimal way

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

Solve one piece at a time. That's the worst while still making progress

Not really. Doing OLL doesn't (intentionally) solve any pieces, yet is still considered progress. Same goes for EO in ZZ, or really any step in any method that involves orienting stuff.

 

[Mike Hughey]

It could be one piece at a time, permute then orient. That would be even slower while still making progress.

It might be fun to solve it one piece at a time starting at one corner of the cube, then working outward from there until you get to the opposite corner. We could call it "corner to corner".

The main issue with this challenge is that there can't possibly be a "worst" method as there is no upper bound to how many moves a method can take; a simple example is using J perms to do each single turn in a solve but then making it "worse" by iterating and making each move of the J perm a J-permified move themself, and so on. There is no limit.

 

[UnknownCorrespondent]

Too late, it's already been made.

You use one repetitive alg to move corners, relying on setups (which must be remembered so they can be undone) to orient at the same time. Then you do the same to the edges with a different alg. Solving the last 4 edges requires you to almost completely scramble the cube in order to set up the swap. It's almost impossible to complete a solve without wrecking everything you've done. And it calls itself elegant.

 

[Jennah]

Solve 5 sides, then do a couple of algs for the last side

 

[Twisted101]

Do piece by piece but flipped like Rowan fortier’s worst method but make it into the anaconda pattern, and then use and alg to solve the anaconda pattern

 

[OtaMota]

I think the worst method is the bogosolve method. You just do random moves and just hope that eventually, the cube ends up solved. You see you are one move away and can solve the cube using U', not if the random generator tells you to do F2.

"Old pochman, but each move each done with 3 j perms, but each move of those 3 j perms is done with 3 j perms" is my favourite method. A good way to waste a weekend doing a single solve

 

[Garf]

How about this: You solve a Roux block, then a 2x2 opposite of the roux block. Then you do 1 alg to solve the remaining bottom corner to be solved and the corners of the LL. Finally, you do 1 alg to solve the last 7 edges.

that ones funny

Bro we talking worse that has blockbuilding so not bad enough for the worst method
