Let’s play a game of “Fortunately, Unfortunately“. Respond the previous post (the first comment below this post) by replying this post (not the previous post!)

I’ll start with: “I found this website.“

what if: LoopOver Fewest Moves

P1: LoopOver/SwitchTile is https://loopover.xyz/

P2: Fewest Moves is an event where competitors attempt to solve a puzzle (almost always the 3x3x3) in as few moves as possible, starting from a given scramble.

Notation to help:

Multiple moves

Alternate form:
C+ <=> C	C- <=> C'
A+2 <=> A2	A-2 <=> A2'
3+2 <=> 3.2	3-2 <=> 3'2 <=> 3.2'

Move metrics

  • SM (slide metric): any move of any rows/columns, by a single slide move, counts as 1 move (what the website uses)

  • LM (line metric): any move of any rows/columns, by any multiples, counts as 1 move

how did I pass Chemistry but not Math

I blame it on the fact it’s Pre-Calculus

Edit: Apparently people didn’t understand what I meant when I say “Pre-Calculus” so I’m going to clarify. tl;dr: it’s basically limits, derivatives and integrals for people coming from algebra.

I’m a highschooler at 11th grade out of 12 grades. We’re using the revised 2016 curriculum (even though 10th graders are using the new 2022 one for an odd reason, but that’s not important.) On this curriculum, high school classes are split into 2 field: natural science and social science, each with their own supplementary subjects. I’m on the natural science field, so I had Physics, Biology, Chemistry and Supplementary Math as my supplementary subjects.

The “Math” I’m referencing here is Compulsory Math, basically a Math subject for the two fields. For the subject we had arithmatic progression, limits, derivatives, and integrals as the subject for final exam. When I wrote this, I thought (except the arithmatic progression) that this is similar to what people might say Pre-Calculus, so that’s what I wrote.
