[Help Thread] Multi-Blind Discussion

Thanks - the DNFs tho :(

I wanted to tell you great job. You were so close!
I haven't been doing my own multi-blind due to a lot of 2x2 practice. (Go to the Accomplishment Thread and you'll see. I've done like 5 averages of 50 in 3 days)
 
Finally did my 8 cube attempt, for those of you who don't know, I just jumped from 3 to 8..
2/8 51.07(39:xx) First two were solved, two has two twisted corners, one had a 3E cycle, one was 5E and two twisted corners, one was an M2 and 5 edges off, and the last was off by quite a lot, I think it was a messed up setup move. I'm actually very happy with how my memo was, the time wasn't great but I remembered all of it, without any trouble at all. (Journey method.) :)

Nice time! My first 12 cube attempt was 2/12 haha
 
First MBLD attempt ever, and I'm quite satisfied. First cube was a success, second cube was off only by two flipped edges, and I forgot parity fix for the third cube.

I used the method of loci as well as audio letter pairs.

Keep going!
 
I'm back with my second MBLD attempt ever, and it was worst than the first (in terms of accuracy).

Second MBLD attempt ever, first one was a disaster 0/2 in 10:46 [7:55], second one 1/2 in 11:55 [8:15] (first cube was off by 4 edges)
Reason: I memorised corners first and edges second, as I would normally do in single BLD and executed then corners first, but I should have started with edges :( Memorising and remembering wasn't a problem, I just reviewed each cube 3x to go safe :) Next attempt: tomorrow

Gogogo Gj!
 
A rare event for me: MBLD success. 2/2 in 16:42. Super slow, I know, but I'm very happy with that. My goal now is to get any kind of BLD success in the next competition I go to...
 
4th MBLD attempt, really good time : 8:35 [6:15] compared to yesterday 11:04 [8:15] ;) buuuuuuut... Still 1/2, second cube off by 3 corners, had a problem with recalling my corners on 2nd cube, this explains the DNF... Will do two attempts tomorrow: a fifth time 2 cubes and than for the first time 3 cube since Memo isn't THAT hard for two cubes...

1: D B2 L U F' R2 B' L' U' R B L2 U2 B D2 R2 F' L2 D2 B2 U2
2: L' F B D F' B' U' D2 B' R' U2 B2 L2 B2 U2 R B2 R' F2 R
