# The two green sides on one corner
Are making me twitch

# Me too...
I've been trying to figure out if two green sides would make it easier or harder (I reckon the latter).

Well it means there are two adjacent faces that are the same colour, so only 5 different colours instead of 6. Which is no easier or harder.

But only 4 colours are showing so it could be even weirder.

For those of an anxious disposition, remove ALL the coloured stickers from your cubes (2x2x2 all the way up to 17x17x17) and the anxiety melts away; they are always "finished" now....

# But it increases the permutations involved in completing both faces of the same colour...
