23 feels horrible from 8 move dr and this scramble in general
theres probably 50 or 100 ways to get sub-23 on this lmao but im dumb
at least my mo3 is good, 21.33 mo3, and i actually finished the league weekly this time lol

Besides the variant (D L D' L2 F2 U') DR, I had no other sub-11 DRs.
First FMC attempt in about a week. I didn't write any EOs on inverse R/L.
Mallard finds 18 from EO in 5 from the 3-move EO, so no. I'm happy with 21.

DNF
basically i just failed at fmc
i had this stuff
L2 F' D B L // EO
D // JZP
R2 F2 D2 F // 10 to 4b2 2e
as well as all the variants
but couldnt find a solution
also had
(D F2 L D2 F' L2 B) // 2c5 in 8
and the 9 movers (D F2 L) F' U2 R2 U2 F' D // 2c5, etc.
all bad
time management was shit, i wrote down way too many 5 move eos
tons of rzps i didnt niss
theres a 21 from mallard from (U2 B D' R) // EO, but whatever yknow rip
my lesson for future solves is, only write down all sub 5 eos,
and then thoroughly check those and get something good,
unless an axis has no sub5 eos, then just write easy linear 5movers etc
idk im just gonna get good at fmc okay okay
also i wish i could advance to tier 2 for next fmc league season
but it looks very unlikely because currently im tied 2nd with gerard but then 9.1 dnf so oops

this scramble was a joke, only 2 out of the 6 axes had linear 5 move eos
basically i only used this eo because i mistraced U' B and thought it was +3 on inverse
and it looked really blocky and stuff so lol
i was really tired and didnt find much else, had a bunch of crappy 11 move and 12 move drs
24.00 mo3 for week 8 is extremely cringe but whatever lmao

Absolute trash result. DR optimal was 24 and very findable, I tried NISS 5qt, but I missed it.
This was the first attempt in many that I did not find any DRs under 11 moves. Sad.
And I had a total of 5 mediocre 11-move DRs. And optimal across all of them was 24.
I think the 21 from R (R F R) is the easiest good solution that I just straight up missed.
For some reason I didn't notice it was 7c8e after doing (U), I got distracted by 6c8e on UD.
Gonna lose match-up and Elo. Congrats to the real pros who found a good solution on this.

Optimal from DR is 22.
It is a 5qt solution I probably would've found with more time.
I spent my time on this other DR:

I had two 23 to Slices. Optimal is 23.
I must've missed the good stuff on this scramble.

I had some other DRs, but I'm too lazy to write them all out.

Unfortunately, I do not have time to do 7.3. Hope I still win.

^F2 U2 B2 D2 B2 U2 // Slice (21), +0/21
This scramble was overwhelming. Tons of good things to check.
I am still pretty happy with 21, because I began finishing DR with only 10 minutes left.
Surprisingly, Mallard doesn't seem to give any easy sub-21s on this scramble.
I think that someone may get sub-21, but the vast majority of top solvers will get 21 on this.
Other DRs:
(U R' D L' R2 F2 R' U2 B) // 9 to 2c5
U D2 L (D) R2 F B' U' B U // 10 (bad)
(U R' D' F2 D2 R D2 L' U2 B) // 10 (bad)
L2 U D2 L' D' F' D' L2 B2 D // 10 (bad)
(B2 U R' D L' R2 B2 L D2 B) // 10 to 4c3
And then I also had 4 DRs in 11, 3 of them were bad and 1 was 2c3 2e.
I also had this interesting thing but it was not good:
D2 R2 U L U B2 R2 L2 D R2 U' B' D // Fake HTR in 13
Besides (B/B' R B U D) and (B/B' R B' U' D), I only looked at 4-move EOs this solve.
I wrote down 43 out of the 45 EOs in 4. I somehow missed (B2 D L2 F) and (B2 L' D F), oops.
I feel like my global average is around 22.5 now, but I still have 22.00 as my PR in comp, lol.

21, 21, 21 = 21.00 Mo3 for Week 6.
I’m really happy with this. This will probably win my match-up and gain some Elo.
I think this 21 is pretty straightforward, like it’s from a 4-move EO and stuff, so most good people will find this. I also had these DRs:

Before finding this I found a bunch of bad 11-move and 10-move DRs. About 30 mins in I went all in on this 8-mover, plus its variants:
D R U2 B2 U // and D' F2 U2 L' U // for DRs in 8.
I found the final pretty quickly. Honestly considering how good this scramble is, some people probably found a 20 or 19. I’m happy with this start though, 21 21 __ for the mean.

I don’t really feel like typing out much because I’m on mobile, but basically a few mediocre 11 move DRs besides this.
This was the first HTR I checked on the DR and I didn’t even have to leave slice. Nice.
I’m going to assume this is the optimal finish, and other top solvers also found this 21.

Not very happy with this. I missed 21 from the DR.
(F2 D' B2 F2 L2 D F2 D') // HTR, then 19 to FB Slice, and +2 for 21 final.
I got overwhelmed on this scramble by writing many EOs and did not NISS many RZPs I had.
This was the only viable DR I found, except for this: L (D' B2 R), (F2 B2 D' R2 D2 F) // 2c3 (10)
This is a solve I expect to lose my matchup, just because there are many good things to find to give sub23 on this scramble. Probably 5.1 tie, 5.2 win, 5.3 lose. 23.00 mo3 is okay.

For some reason, it looks like my submission for 5.2 wasn't received, so this is the 2nd try.
I won't type everything from the first time. But basically nice EO->DR step and there was this cool 22 to slice from DR I'm proud of finding: U (L2 F2 B2 D' R2 D' B2 D'), (F2 R2 B2 U2).

This scramble was absolute hell. Honestly happy to not get DNF on this.
I literally had no other DR's, except an 11-move 4qt DR from a misscramble.
I must have missed the correct NISS 5-move EO that everyone else somehow found.
Mallard finds a pretty reasonable 22 from F L2 U (D) with 3c6e RZP then NISS for 10 to 2c3.
Optimal after my given DR is 24 instead of 25 but I only had 10 minutes left so that's fine.

Optimal after EO. Absolutely insane solves this week. 20, 21, 19 = 20.00 mo3.
Way better performance than my previous weeks lmao. Well, I didn't even finish last week.
But anyways I am very happy to get this. I almost forgot to NISS my 3-movers xd.
Other DRs:
(R' D' F, U' R) L2 R2 U2 L U L // 2c3 (11), This is blocky and has +5 to HTR on both sides. I found a 22 to slice from this.
(F2 U F', L' D' L U2 R2 D' B2 D) // 4b2 (11)
(R' D' F), L (D' R2 U' B2 R) // 4b2 (9), Looks way worse than the other 9 to 4b2.
R L U D2 R, L2 F' D' F' U' F // 4c4 (11), Cool EO->DR solution in my opinion, but crap DR.
Mallard finds this exact solution. I really doubt there's a sub-19 on this. I think people's means this week will be crazy xd. Surely some pro gets a sub-20.00 mo3 or something.

Optimal after DR. Very good solve. Happy to find that RZP.
Other:
L2 F2 D L, D F U F' B2 D // 4b2 (10), I tried this for a long time but found nothing. Turns out optimal is 6qt for 22, and none of the 23's look super easy either. Classic 10+2 bait.
L2 D F2 L, U (D2 B2 L2 B U) // 4c4 (10), Didn't bother solving this, but it's 23 opt and easy.
(B D L2 B', R) D F2 D' F2 D R // 2c3 (11), 23 optimal, it is 3h > trigger, but it's findable.
I somehow did not write (F2 R' D B) / (F2 D R2 B) EOs, which is extremely embarrassing.
Mallard doesn't seem to find a reasonable sub-21. Surely someone finds sub-21 though.

there were some eos i didnt have time to check. the 10 to 4b2 is the only dr i really checked.
mallard finds a couple of 19s, so this means this 20 is 100% not the best result on 4.1.

Overall, beginning FMC League with a 24.00 mo3 is quite bad. Let's see how many matchups I can tie or win with that. Interested to see what others do on this set.

Why in the world is a 5qt slice +1 optimal. This was my only DR. Optimal is 23 but very hard.
I'm sure someone still gets 19-20 on this bad scramble because it's League, right?

Optimal after DR gives 20. I'm sure many people in FMC League found the 20. I had the correct HTR, but I did not find the solution. My results for Week 9: DNF 25 21. Not too good.
