For piece by piece I used to 'label' the corners 1 - 8 starting from UFR and ending with DBL. Then I would memorize the whole cube. To solve I would first...

I think we can reject 75% of the 576 different orders. I think that solving permutation before orientation would be really bad because then you would have to...

Assuming you always orient the pieces in an orbit before permuting them, then you only have 6 allowable solving orders. Say you orient both right at the start,...
