PCMS

PCMS (pairs, CLL, M and S slices) is an advanced method for speedsolving using columns first, designed by Kenneth Gustavsson in late 2008. The method compromises between easy look ahead and low move count (slice metric, see STM), and the result is 'decent' for both parts.

Steps:

1. Columns
   1. Solve 4 CE pairs using intuition
   2. CMSLL, somethin between 2x2 CLL and CMLL (see CxLL)
2. Slices
   1. Solve centres and the RD, LD and BD edges using intuition
   2. Solve the FD edge and the LL edges (see E35)
      1. Orientation
      2. Permutation
