Bah, I feel like nobody even saw my typo-joke :-( Ok, now about lucky cases with my method. Well, the rules say:
For blindfold solving a lucky case is defined by: 1) more than 5 corners are correctly oriented, or 2) more than 8 edges are correctly oriented, or 3) more than 3 corners are correctly positioned, or 4) more than 4 edges are correctly positioned. Obviously the writer didn't know my method :-). I don't consider 1) or 2) lucky since correct orientation doesn't help me at at all, actually "orientation" doesn't even exist for me unless a piece is correctly positioned. For 3) and 4) I don't count correctly positioned pieces with bad orientation, since these are just as hard as "normal", i.e. mispositioned pieces. For me I'd say a lucky case is defined by: 1) more than 2 corners are correctly positioned and oriented, or 2) more than 3 edges are correctly positioned and oriented. Those are the only cases that really save work. I lowered the number a bit, though. Not sure they're good now, I don't know where the original numbers came from, but I think these rules come very close to what it optimally should be. Cheers!
