Gave myself a quick refresher in 3BLD yesterday after a couple years off. First timed Ao5 had 4 successes! Yperm/M2

DNF(2:04.48)[1:11.76 (3E)]),2:43.80[1:06.83], 2:50.18[1:25.98],2:54.37[1:52.98], (2:14.23[1:05.41] = 2:49.45

Edit: Ended up with a 60% success rate through 25 attempts featuring a best solve of 1:45 and a 2:17.97 Ao5! Of my 10 failures, 4 were 2 twisted corners, 3 were 2 flipped edges, 2 were a 3-edge cycle, and one was 8 edges. Not bad at all! Just have to get cleaner memo and I'm looking really good!

Been practicing accuracy a bit more recently, and as a result I kinda have to wean myself off of corner memo review again :(

3BLD Memo PB of 29.36! The solve was a DNF by 2 flipped edges, had a major pause of at least 20 seconds because I temporarily forgot some of the edge memo.

I don't know why it was so fast. It was as standard as anything else, 7 corner targets, 9 edge targets and a flipped edge.

After two DNF's I've got my second 4BLD success. Time was 19:36, a five minute improvement.
