hey man. for 4c, what if i end up with a U-perm? how the hell do i take care of that?? do i use the same alg for PLL?

[cubes4lyfe]

@Dulema sure. usually you'd encounter a regular PLL during 4b. I just do MU PLL then.

Hey Waffle,

Thanks for your great tutorial. I actually learned the entire method from your videos. I only have a questions though, In the last case of this step (4c), it sometimes gets stubborn with me. I am not sure how to hold the cube in order to get it the very first time. Can you elaborate on that?

Thanks a lot

[cubes4lyfe]

That last case is very difficult since there are many reflections and mirrors. So I'll tell you by example.. First set up the cube - M' U2 M U2.

The entire cube should still be oriented but the F sticker on UF and B sticker on UB are opposites. When you see that The first move you make will be U2. Now you see a solved bar on the M-slice. Do M' U2 to fix it. and then M to put it all back. There are several cases for this and recognition comes with practice. even I don't get it the first time. :D

Your tutorial is very good...except i had a case were it was just two blocks...green-red and a red-blue..they were were they were supposed to be but flipped upside down...there a solution for that?

[cubes4lyfe]

return to the 4a step. They are simply misoriented

[mothepeon]

Nice! that helped a lot. Thanks dude. You're awesome.

[cubes4lyfe]

that means you didn't orient completely .
