Hey Eric,

I like the super3x3, I think it is a very fun cube.  I don't know
exactly how my PLL and OLL algs flip centers, but I can usually have
an idea if one will flip a side center or not.  Basically what I do is
to solve the F2L while orienting those 5 centers.  Then I usually do
an OLL and either solve edges and then corners with center-safe algs,
or use a PLL and just flip two centers at the end.

I like this for the edge 3 cycle to also preserve centers:
R2 U F B' R2 F' B U2 F B' R2 F' B U R2 which I do as

R2 d' r R' U2 r' R U2 r R' U2 r' R U' y' R2 

I think this strategy needs improving though since I hate ending with
two centers flipped the same direction, the only alg I have to solve
that is very slow, I use:
R L U2 L' R' U M E' M' E R L U2 L' R' U E' M E M'

I think ideally, if the 3x3x3 supercube was the main event and what
everyone was doing, that probably we would have algs for OLL that
leave the side centers alone, and algs to solve the PLL correctly in
relation to the last face center.

I think that's an ambitious method to learn, but probably what
Fridrich would evolve into if people stopped caring about the regular
3x3 cube and moved to the supercube.

Just my $0.02
