Its the curse of bigbld. You get used to it :(

That's why I like multi, you can still get a good result even if you make a small mistake. In BigBLD, the solve must be completely perfect.

woah
4BLD dnf pb

DNF 22:14.80[17:25.94]

<4m centers
~8m wings
~2m corners

2 twisted corners and 3+2 cycle of 5 centers
There go all my attempts for the weekly comp. Was really hoping for a success

Now I get to do the 3 5BLD solves.
Based on this improvement, I hope I can get two 5BLD attempts in during the 45m allotted for the event at MCC Alpha 2017.

was doing some bld today.

missed a pb of 5:40something on 3bld by 2 flipped edges.

then in 4bld, i failed every attempt by either forgetting my memo, or better yet, realizing i didn't include a center in the memo at all. i gave up when i realized this lol. i just want a success, man. idc what the time is as long as it's solved.

First 4BLD attempt today. First time memoing (ever) and I've done one or two sighted solves.
55min memo and like 17min execution so 1:12
During edges though I realised I executed the first ever target wrong so I went back the whole way and fixed it. The cube was more than have done, about 1/3 of each side scrambled

Any tips? Do you guys remeber your first 4BLD solves?

haven't practised much 3bld for a while then after watching some gianfranco vids for a motivational boost I got this :p
Not really close but first 2 times were pretty nice (although the 21 could've defs been 20)

5bld off by 3 x-center ._. my PB is still my first success from like October '15. Memo was around 8:28, spend too much time searching for 2 wings which I already memorised but thought there are still 2 unsolved wings lel.
Mistake was most likely in memo tho, although my cube slipped twice and I had to guess were I was...
