Wow, that was fast, well done Andrey!
Since you are using your own program, you are missing from the Hall of Insanity - one more reason to have an independent list for the shortest mc5d solutions.
As I wrote lately, there’s some spare potential in my method, but in the next few months I have to focus on my job and my exam, so I probably won’t try to beat your record in this year. Maybe if the special twists will be available one day, I make one more shot.

congratulations again!

Andras, congratulations!

I’ve accepted the challenge. And my result is 3581 twists. I solved cube in

MC7D, but it has the same twist definition as MC5D, so results are comparable.

Log file is here:

I’ve used solving "from inside" (2C,3C,4C,5C). Last 50 twists were to resolve

one 3-loop on 5C (probability of this situation is 2/3). I think that with luck

I can do 3500 by my method, but not much better.

Twists for stages of my solve:

2C - 125

3C - 706

4C - 1472

5C - 1278

Good luck!

Andrey
