I'm so bad at LS lol

13 + ~6 eo's written, all checked quickly

R' B U // eo, 4e4c (4/4)
F' L2 D2 R2 F' L' // 2c3 4e (5/9)
F L2 F' L2 U2 D2 B' // HTR (7/16)
U2 B2 U2 L2 U2 B F D2 L2 B' F' // solved (11/27)

tried bashing the LS for a while, but didn't figure it out (would've been a 26)

might be first time getting optimal on each other substep though! (eg, shortest eo is 3, shortest dr from those eo's is 9, shortest htr from the dr's is 16, etc.)

woof no sub-5 eo's at all??? I'm not good enough at DR, so went for a fairly basic bb solution

R F D2 L' // 222+p (4/4)
F' L' B L F // ps223 with nice other stuff (5/9)
D' R' D // f2l-1 (3/12)
(R U' R' U R U') // f2l (6/18)
D' F2 U F U' F D R // 3c (8-2/24)

then biffed the insertion bc I kept finding good cancels for wrong-way, and tricked myself into thinking one of them was right-way; submitted a last-minute 0-cancel at the end of skeleton just to not DNF (yeah yeah, I know the other comm in the same place would've been a -1, I panicked

one day I'll be good at DR, kinda got overwhelmed by EOs without the skill to convert to DRs

15 eo's written, ~20 eo's checked only for rzp

R, L2 U' L // eo with blocks (4/4)
B // rzp to 4c4e (1/5)
U' B2 U D' L2 U2 D' F // 4b2 4e (8/13)
D2 F2 L2 U B2 R2 D // HTR (7/20)
(L2) D2 B2 R2 D2 * B2 R2 B2 // ls (8-1/27)

I found an 8-6 at * and wrote it down with like 2 minutes left

after a small amount of additional LS-ing, I found the +1, but when I looked at the clock there were only 5 seconds left
