I decided to slow down my memo and execution a fair amount to see how it would affect my accuracy and as a result, I got 100% of the first 12 solves I did with the slowing down as well as get a pb ao12 :D (I've never had an ao12 before for bld). Was pretty surprising cos lately, I have been averaging maybe 50% or less for accuracy at full speed so I think I can take something out of this.

1/2 isn't DNF. Your score has to be less than 0 for it to be DNF. :p (doesn't really make sense but whatever)

Example: https://www.worldcubeassociation.or...=Canada&years=&show=100+Persons&single=Single

9f12c:

For Multiple Blindfolded Solving, rankings are assessed based on number of puzzles solved minus the number of puzzles not solved, where a greater difference is better. If the difference is less than 0, or if only 1 puzzle is solved, the attempt is considered unsolved (DNF).

I've been really lazy with actual blind practice, although still consistently fixing bad corner comms and drilling that stuff, so not sure how this happened since my edge memo is rusty.

pb single by 6 seconds :D 15 sec memo too which is definitely a first for me.
Sadly, I failed the sub 1 mo3 for literally about the seventh time now (by a flipped edge)...would've been ~52 secs too

Dang you're improving fast. Are you going to look into big/multibld at some point?

= 2:01.03 Mo3

Nice times, but that is an Average of 3, not Mo3. For a Mo3, you don't take out any times, so you need 3 successes in a row for a Mo3.
