Wow Ed, you’re crazy :p I think I can do the Super Chop without too much trouble but some of the others are very nasty. Don’t forget the Projective Plane ones, I bet a lot of your algorithms still work there… I’m going to try some Elliptical ones next because of the new update (thanks Roice!)

I solved all the remaining {10,3} puzzles I know how to do. It took quite a while. Note that I didn’t beat a lot of the existing movecounts, but I think most of that is because of scramble length. I’ve been using 5000 and if anyone did solves with, say, 100 or 500, they would get easier scrambles (pieces closer to the solved position on average) because it takes so many twists to get a piece to move around the puzzle.
