Execution was almost pauseless in this attempt, but memo was slower than it needed to be. I was using a new review system for the first time though, so hopefully with a bit more time to get used to it I can shave a few more minutes off. 21 cubes sub-hour finally seems within sight!

Did my first proper MBLD attempt:

4/5 24:59.10 [20:24.57]

Went pretty slow with the memo, since it's my first time using so many rooms. Discovered throughout the memo that there was a lot that could be optimized about the rooms. Will try for a significantly bigger number next time, considering jumping all the way up to 10 cubes. The DNF was not doing parity+flipped edge+2 corners.

Overall I'm pretty happy with this, NR is 7/8, should be able to beat that at my next comp with Multi (whenever that is).

29/30 in 50:15 [32:53]

for the weekly comp. used 16 brand new rooms hence longer memo but went safe. Also my camera stopped recording in the middle so took 2 minutes to sort that out, would have been a 48 min time otherwise. Good accuracy!

Not bad for my second attempt at something more than 2 cubes. Bottom left is just a +2, next to that is 3 edges off, then 3 corners, and the last is 5 edges off. I see that fitting in 2 more cubes will be easy, and with some practice I should be trying 15 cube attempts in not too long. 20 cubes doesn't seem that far away now. Once again used some brand new rooms for this attempt, so memo could have been a bit faster.

Yess, I made it! My first "better than NR" attempt. 17/17 57:11 for the weekly comp
Finally I broke my previous sub-hour PB (13/13)


Aaand I have a comp in three weeks. Trying 19 there is my goal for now. I was thinking I could try memoing in 3-packs

so ((3+3+3)+(3+3+3))+1
instead of ((2+2+2+2)+(2+2+2+2))+2+1

If I just can remember the memo well enough, I guess, the 3-pack way could be a faster and more beneficial way of doing 19 since the separate 2-cube multi in the end just confuses me. Anyone has ever tried out 3-packs? My next attempt will be like that!

If everything goes well, I might have the NR already in September;)

EDIT Another comp a week earlier, so really trying to give my all to those 2 attempts.

How do you guys go about implementing new rooms? My current two Loci have reached their cap at 10 cubes, even though my 2nd location (rather small one), which fits up to 2 cubes, is not very well organized yet.

I have already an idea of which locations I'll use, but my question is: Should I do smaller trials (3 to 5 cubes) using the new rooms to organize / solidify them?

Or is it advisable to fill my current Loci first and slowly crawl my way into the new ones?
