Wooow...you're reply in my thread!

Thanks, tim. My memo is Person Action + Place.

World Record potential? Aw, I dont know... I'm still not satisfied with my accuracy. I just wish someday i can get top 10 WR in multi.

Would you share some tips for accuracy?

Very impressive solve - very nice time. I have yet to do 8 cubes quite that fast.

It certainly looks to me like you should have no problem managing top 10 in the world in multi. Just do this in competition, and there you go. With the new rules, we'll be starting over anyway, so the key is for you to get to a competition with multi. (It's too bad that the Singapore Open doesn't appear to have it, or big cubes BLD either. I was hoping you and/or blah could manage some spectacular results there, but it looks like neither of you will have the chance. Are you going to the Singapore Open?)

As for accuracy, I've found that the key for me is to do somewhat fewer fingertricks when solving. It slows me down just a little, but honestly the key to fast multi is fast memorization, not fast solving, so a few less fingertricks don't hurt all that much. If I cut out a few of the fingertricks, I get a lot more accurate. Just don't do the ones that feel unsafe.

That may not be true for better speedcubers, though. I'm really bad at speedcubing.

(And Now Mike? Wow again. )

Thanks Mike,
Singapore OPen? Can't go there... I'm currently jobless now, so I should use my money wisely. And It also explain my rapid movement from 4/4 to 7/8 since I have lot of time in my hand.

I want to do this (4 or 5 cubes) in my next local cubers meeting to see how I can handle the noise and pressure during memo and solve. See how bad it can go... Do you think this will be a good way to practise to handle nervous? Or there's any better way? Thanks for accuracy tips. Yea, I remember that most of my DNF have a fingerslip in it. I should do it slowly next time.

Aaand while you're here. I have question for my 4x4x4 BLD centers. How i can solve silly target say A-D-U ? 2 Diagonal at up face and one in opposite face? I'm working on it, and progress is slow.

Noooo....I'm still struggle with 4x4x4 center. Really suck at it, though. Even with my eyes wide open, It still slow. Then I should do it blindfolded, practise memo, working on edge, memorizing bad target's algorithm for edge, learn how to handle parity...and try to combine it into full 4x4x4 BLD first try. Loooong journey.

And I'm so tempted to learn letter pair or at least letter memo for edge just like you. For faster single 3x3x3 BLD solve.

Yep, practicing in front of other people is a good idea.
