Rubik's Clock: 7simul Flip Method
7simul flip#
Observation#
For example, with the following shuffle:
UR3- DR4- DL1- UL2- U1+ R4+ D2- L3- ALL1+ y2 U3- R1- D4- L4+ ALL1+ DR DL UL
Assume the side facing you uses uppercase letters, the back side uses lowercase letters, and when reading the code, flip it using x2 (flip up and down), not the left-right flip used during scrambling. You can use your preferred method for number and letter encoding.
This example uses the side facing up during scrambling as the front.
| Steps | Description | Numerical value | Encoding |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 6 | 6 | |
| 2 | -3 | C | |
| 3 | -5 | E | |
| 4 | -3 | C | |
| 5 | 5 | 5 | |
| 6 | 4 | 4 |
Operation#
Assuming the four pillars facing you are UL, UR, DR, DL, the following descriptions indicate which pillars are protruding.
| Steps | Protruding column | How many steps UL turns | How many steps UR turns |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | UL, DR, DL | Encoding of Step 1 | Encoding of step 2 |
| 2 | UL, DL | Align D and R dials | Encoding of Step 3 |
| 3 | UL | Align C and D&R dials | Align DR and D&R dials |
| 4 | x2 Flip over | x2 Flip over | x2 Flip over |
| 5 | UL, DR, DL | Encoding of step 4 | Encoding of step 5 |
| 6 | UL, DL | Align D and R dials | Encoding of step 6 |
| 7 | UL | Align the top-left four dials and the D&R dial. | Align DR and D&R dials |
| 8 | UL, DR | Except for DL and UR, align the remaining dials to twelve o’clock. | DL, UR dial aligned to twelve o’clock |
