What your doing is called a spaced pair.
ORTF is a stereo miking setup, not unlike XY or MS. Go and search. Read. Learn.
The "recorderman" setup is from a guy who posts under the name 'recorderman' who has a specific way of measuring and placing the microphones. At one point he described it in detail, probably a lot of other people have too. It works pretty well for a quickie default stereo setup but I've found that I need to spend a lot of time tweaking the placement once I get mics roughed in.
