First scramble : decent but I misswrote so many EOs. Wrote optimal to my DR 3s overtime, had to submit my backup Second scramble : very hard one, only had 11 to 0c0 6e Third scramble : Good for blocks, went for 5c in 15 and got 25. Nico found 3c in 16 and woajed the solve with a 20

(F' L B2 R) // EO
(U) F' R2 F2 B2 U // 2c4 (10) 
(F D2 L2 F L2 F' R2 U2 F') // HTR
(B2 U' D F2 L2 U D') // (26-2)

This is sliceable to 23 but I couldn't finish writing down the solution before the end

opt from DR is : D F2 B2 D' F2 D R2 F2 L2 U' L2 D2 (12)(23)
hard I think

I didn't like this one, I would probably have DNF'ed if I hadn't decided to get a solution to every solve of the comp.
this was my only DR

I went for blocks on this one cause I was tired of writing EOs and the scramble was so good for blocks
R' U R' F' L // 123
F2 L F U F' // 223 w/ inserted L
B' D L D' L2 // 5c (15)
(8-4)(8-2)(25)

Also found this on inverse:
(F' U' R L U L' B U2 D R) // F2L-1 (10)
(B' D' L' D B L) // 5c (16)


Computer-assisted solution (same as Doug and Nico):
(R2 F L' D' F2 R2 B' R U) // F2L-1 (9) (computed optimal solution)
(D R B R' B' R D') // 3c (16)
(8-4)(20)

Nico found this as :
D R' U' // form blocks
(R2 F L' D' F2) // magic
(R2 B' R D) // F2L / 3e3c (12)
(U R B R' B' U') // 3c (18-2)
(8-4) insertion
