(F2 U R2 D) //HTR (15)
(F2 D2 B2 L2 B2 L2 B2 U2 L2) //long but ok

This scramble was so doomed and I half gave up because I only had a 13+4 with 20 minutes left, then this appeared.

(L' D' B' R2 U)
(R) F' R2 B2 U2 B' [R'] //2c3 (12)
(F' D2 B U2 R2 L2 F) //HTR (19)
(D2 R2 D2) //wrong slice (22)
[U2 R' L F2 L'] //fin (26)


IDK what made me think an RZP in 6 existed from that EO

R2 D' F'
D (R2 D' R2 D') //2c4 (8)
(R'%) F2 L$ U2 B2 R D2 R'$ //HTR (16)
D2 F2 L2 U2 F2 //LS (21)
$=w %=M2 //fin (22)

this scramble was too exhausting... and I didn't even check any of my 4 move EOs because I spend too much time on RZP searching

(U2 D R)
(D) //switch on JZP (4)
U' F2 U' F2 U' L2 B2 D' //4a1 4e (12)
(B2 L2 B2$ L2 U2 % L2 F$) //LS (19)
$=w %=S' //fin (21)

I had the 13 move HTR, but the way I found this "finish" was by switching and solving it into HTR.
The way I found this DR was by treating it like a 4b2 4e case (I think that is standard practice?)

WELL... 23,22,21 = 22.00 PB mo3!!!
I'm so happy rn

lol, I thought this was a doomed scramble when I counted EO at the beginning. I did find other 23 slices, but they didn't +0

spent a while on the [U (L U)] EO, but that didn't yield anything good, and so I was only able to check that and [U/U' B' L' D] at the 30 minute mark, so I feel kinda lucky

wow very straight forward solution, and I was confident this was just DR optimal even though I only checked like 4 HTRs
