F2 U' D' R
U2 D' B2 D2 L2 U B / 11 4b2 4e
U B2 R2 U // HTR
F' B U2 F' B R2 // leave slice in 21 but +3 obv

(U L2 D')
(B2 R2 B U2 B' R) // 9 2c4
(L2 F) L2 B' R2 F' L2 F // 17 HTR
R' L' F2 D2 R' L // 23 slice +1
DR opt (23) uses this htr, oops
Had 0 energy on this attempt, didn't even check 4 move EOs
Okay wow there was a free 19 from 4 movers

Other drs:
(D F2 U', F2 L2 F U2 F' L) // basically the same 2c4 but this one is 22 opt requiring 6q

(U L2 D)
R' B' F U2 B R2 F' R // 11 4c3 with straightforward 22 opt (I didn't check it)

(U L2 D)
(L' B) B2 D2 L D2 R' B // 11 4b2 2e, 23 opt

R2 U R' L' D
L U2 L B' R L2 F // 3c6e yay (12+3)
B2 R B2 U2 L B2 L
D2 F2 D2 R2 U2 D2 F2 // 26 slice +0
oof
DR opt required 3 half turns to the 2c3 2e 5 move trigger, I ain't trying that hard for a 24
Of course the 10+5 I ignored had multiple free 22s, wtf

shit
man i just can't get a mean in fmcl 6
only dr worth checking:
(F) U' B D B'
(L2 F2 L2 F2 R D) // 11 2c3 2e
D2 R' F2 L F2 L // HTR in 17
DR opt (24) was available from here but you had to leave M+S and why would i check for that here. Well 24 sucks anyways.

I am so fucking sad
B' F R' D // 7c8e good pairs
(R2 B2 L2 B R F L) // DR but wait the subset is 0c0 0e lmao (11)
(B2^ D2 R2 D2 R2 D2 F2 B2^) solved in 19
I could have widened at the ^s, rewritten the rest to end with D2 (to cancel with EO), and then resliced FB slice for an 18. Or I could have just realized it was (F2) away from FB floppy reduction and done a wrong slice kind of thing. Utterly tragic.

(F) // premove
F L' D R // 7c8e
F2 D F2 B' D F // 11 2c3 2e
R2 F2 U R2 D' R2 D' // HTR (18)
B2 L2 U2 L2 // Direct finish (22) unique dr opt!
Low effort attempt, it's like 85f (30c) in my room lolol. Very lucky the dr finish was so easy
Too lethargic to write 5 movers so I just did premove abuse which I never do lol. Only other DRs were 11 2c4, 12 2c4 and 13 4c4.

(B D2 R' U) // 4c6e jzp
R' U2 F2 B2 R' // 9 4b2 4e
F' U2 B' U2 B' R2 L2 D2 F' // HTR (18)
D2 R2 D2 L2 // leave slice (22), +1

Also had this dr with 8 variations:
(B R' U')
(R2 U2 B' L2 D2 B) // 9 4b2 4e

Could have had 20 if I had time to switch my shortest HTRs to the variation side. Whatever, at least I didn't dnf again.

(L) B2 L
B L2 F B2 D // 8+2
(D2 B2 U2 L2 F' U2 B)
(F2 L2 D2 L2 D2 L2) // "20" to slice +1
imagine a world where I had the will to try 2qt to different 4b2 2e and switch
or 2qt niss htrs
(only ways to get 19 or 20)
Edit: I just realized I literally noted down the jzp that gives 17, and decided not to switch jzp in 6 after finding 4b2 2e in 8...
And I ended the attempt with 8 minutes left too...

My only non-nightmare subset dr:
B' L B
(D L U' F2 R2 D) // 9 4c3 with 4 variations
Found a few 25s to slice but like, no
And missed 22 because I forgot/didn't have time to switch my shortest normal HTRs to the variation side, to check the variations. I always struggle with variation heavy DRs

only ok dr:
(L) U2 R'
U' F', B2 U D R2 D2 B // 4b2 4e with 4 variations
Miscounted 24 to slice, it was 27 so I gave up lol

Edit after checking cubelib: how am i so dumb that I missed the 10 move dr from this rzp. Whatever, they're both 22 opt anyways

R2 D F U D
R' F L' B' L // 10 2c4
B (B' D2 B' R2 B') // htr (16)
(L2 D2 R2 U2 B2 D2) // direct finish
Second solve in a row now, finding dr opt and final solution from the first HTR I checked! lol
Scramble felt so bad I checked rzp in 6, I guess it payed off. 21 was available though if I had committed to pair tracing every 4c6e in 5.
I swear 6/6/6 is always either normal or terrible

we're so back
R' F R2 U // eo, dr-4c2e, good arm/pairs
(R' B2 L' F' L2 F) // 10 2c3 2e
R' B2 L' B2 L // HTR (15)
B2 R2 U2 D2 // leave S in 19, +1

I am on such a losing streak with fmc right now and it feels so bad :(
(B) R' D' F
(U2 D2 L' B2 U' R U) 11+3
R2 U2 R' (F2 R' F2 U2 D2 L')
(F2 D2 L2 B2 D2) 25 slice +1
I'm sorry for putting up such a pathetic competition Jayden Mcneill
Better things to come hopefully

DRs:
D2 L2 U F B
(R' U2 L U2 R2 D) // 11 4b2 2e with 4 variations on each side (16 total)
Need to work on finding finishes to this kind of bs

(Rw U2 Lw)
(D' B) L2 U' B // 8 4a2 2e

(R' D F B')
(L', R2 U' R2 D2 L) // 10 4c3

(D F' R B)
(R) D2 R2 D F2 L // 10 4c3

(D' F' R B)
F2 U D2 R' F2 D2 L' // 11 4c3

Obviously I dnfed

Found unique optimal on an 11 2c4 but it was 25 so didn't bother rewriting the slice
