PEG

PEG, pairs, Erik & Gunnar or Erik Akkersdijk and Gunnar Krig's 2x2x2 method EG but moved over to 3x3x3. Here not only the corners of the first layer are oriented as the first step, the whole pairs are. So it will be Pairs-EG or simply PEG!

PEG differs slightly from EG, most algorithms can be used if som of the turns are done double layer to preserve the pairs. But some algorithms destoys them no matter how they are performed, in those cases other, possibly longer algorithms has to be used.

Example: this algorithhm solves EG 1 Pi D

• R U R' L' U' L R U R'

To use it for PEG it must be done like this:

• R U R' l' U' L r U R'

PEG is best used together with E35.

PEG is also useful for direct solving big cubes, the only difference is that the "pairs" has got more edges and you need to do triple, quadruple e.t.c. layer turns to preserve them while doing EG.
