Not really blindfolded, but... memorising 13 random cards (a quarter of a deck):
1:25.88, 1:25.25, 1:08.65 = 1:19.93 Mo3.

Five attempts so far, and only one wrong card; on the second attempt, I memo'd 9 of Diamonds instead of 9 of Hearts. All those red things look the same.
(2:33.87 was first attempt)

New 3BLD PBs!
single: 3:46.437
MO3: 4:24.331
AO5: 4:30.572

Yay! This is pretty much the first time I have been able to get 3 solves in the row to be able to get a MO3 and AO5. My accuracy is getting better, and execution and memo are slowly getting faster too.

I don't know if I should be happy or not :p

4/10 55:21[42:55]. Time was really good, memo time went down a lot, solve time went down a lot. But, only 4 solved :E

I used Maskow's tacit but I did it in groups of 4, then 2 at the end.

I will get used to this from my old system, which was weird. I still have a problem remembering were I put my images for each cube, lol, I'm getting used to all of this though!

It's slow, but I am enjoying 7BLD. I did my first 2 solves in a long time. My bigcube cycles are rusty so I think I can make a lot of improvement in a couple weeks. The overall size of the attempt feels much smaller now. MBLD and Memory Sport are certainly the reason for that. The organization of my journeys are also better now.

Just got a 2:22.681 [1:05], this felt amazing. Two edges were skipped and all I had to remember for corners was XC (Shack) and QF (Quadratic Formula), then to flip 3 corners. I am very happy with this solve. Now my PB has gone down over a minute and a half just today.

Edit: Just got a 2:22.918 as well :)
