Skeleton 1: U' B' U B * R' L D' L' R F L' D2
* = B2 L2 B2 R2 F2 R2 //2e2e (6-2/16)

Here I have a nice 2e2e, or so it seems. The new insertion finder gives 24 inserting a 1-move setup to an 8-move 2e2e case with 1 cancellation (and it gives 22 starting from Skeleton 1 without my first insertion, inserting first an 8-move 2e2e that cancels 4 and then a 6-0 3-cycle). I couldn't find any good insertion, but I saw that I could replace the last 7 moves with D' R L' F D2 to get a 5e case:

Skeleton 2: U' B' U B' * L2 B2 R2 + F2 R D' R L' F D2
* = E'
+ = [R' B' D' B: E] blah

Not very satisfied with this last insertion, I was hoping for something 1 or moves better. However with this last skeleton I did beat the new insertion finder!

Nice solve! There is also a cool direct finish for another 23 (domino-style):

2x2x2: U' B
2x2x3: D2 L2 F' D2 F'

Thanks, I totally missed that. So I was pretty lucky to get 23 with insertions as well.

Your second solve is pretty nice too, did you also try to approach the 6 move L9E skeleton directly? The new IF gives a 21 for this.

That was the first skeleton I wrote down, but I didn't try inserting it during the time limit (9 edges are bit awkward, and the other skeleton looked nicer). I tried it for the no time limit challenge, but I didn't get anything better than 25 or 26, I don't remember.

@Fok96 when is the DR doc coming out?

It've just completed it (after hours of fact checking and layout fixing) It' s ready to be published. Is probably coming out tomorrow ( Saturday 3 August). I'll post it here and on the FM group on Facebook!
