Fewest Moves Challenge, or FMC, is a quiet event where competitors are given a scramble and have one hour to find the shortest solution. The regulations for the event can be found here, but below are the most important things to remember:

  • You can only use up to 3 3x3s
  • Your solution must be 80 moves or less. Rotations are included in this 80 move limit, but are not counted in the final solution.
  • You can only use outer face move turns to solve the puzzle - no slice moves!
  • You may use wide moves to move 2 layers at once (e.g. Rw), but they must be written correctly. Rw' is valid notation, but R'w or r' will result in a DNF.
  • You may use rotations (x, y, z), but they must be written correctly - x follows R, y follows U, z follows F. Notation such as (x) or [r] is not valid.

If you are interested, we recommend giving it a try!

Time limit

If you reach the time limit during your solve, the judge will stop you and your result will be DNF (see Regulation A1a4).

Format
