Hi Stefan,

Very interesting and highly original approach.  I just did a couple 
of solves and I really enjoyed using this approach.

One small question for step 3 (shooting non-yellow centers from U 
into their proper home on u):

"Each shot is either (Rr)' F (Rr) or (Ll) F' (Ll)"

Why not (Rr) U' (Rr)'???  It is the same 'go and get' approach, 
still only three moves, but the middle move is U instead of F 
keeping the entire step in the (Ll), U, (Rr) gen category.

I like your combination move for adjacent pairs in step 3 especially 
combined with the observation that diagonals will combine with any 
intervening shot.  

If stuck with a diagonal pair at the end it can also be quite 
elegantly combined into:

    (Rr)  U' (Rr)'  U   (Ll)' U  (Ll)   [pieces in Ufl and Ubr]
or  (Ll)' U  (Ll)   U'  (Rr)  U' (Rr)'  [pieces in Ubl and Ufr]



Do you have any data on number of moves for your technique compared 
the 'usual' approach (opp centers, any 3rd face, adjacent 4th, 
simultanious adjacent 5th/6th)??


Interesting, original, and fun!

Thanks,

Rob
