FINALLY A SUB-1 ON CAM!



Scramble: L2 U R2 U B2 D' R2 F2 U2 L2 F2 L' F' R F' D R B' U F' (just one corner solved)

Cube: Cool Guhong (thecubicle.us)
Method: M2/3-style
Blindfold: Custom from artscow.com

This is my second sub-1 with only one piece solved. =D

Reconstruction:
Corner Memo: MQIOVX = the MarQuis has IO for his ViXen
Edge Memo: PLIVBGEXRNAR = PLIV BoGEX RiNAR

Edges (80):
[B' R2 B : M2] (7)
[U' R U : M2] (7)
[D : [M' , U R2 U']] (10)
[U R2 U' : M2] (7)
[L U' L' U : M2] (9)
B L B' M2 B L2 B' M2 B L B' (11)
[U' L2 U : M2] (7)
[U' L U : M2] (7)
[u R u' : M2] (7)
M2 (1)
[U' L U : M2] (7)

Corners (33):
R2 D' R U2 R' D R U2 R (9)
[D' x [U2 , R' D2 R]] (10)
[U2 : [R2 U R2 U' R2 , D2]] (14)

TOTAL: 113

I got another one. Hopefully less suspicious =D


Good solve except for the recheck on the edges and the cycle I used OP for.

I would say very nice, but it does look extremely suspect. After you finish edges you move onto corners and then turn as if to look at the bottom of the cube.

If this is legit however, well done!

I think I was about to do a commutator that started with x, but then remembered that I could use an OLL I know for that case.
 
I used to have this habit of checking in between corners and edges, but that was long ago. Maybe it was some remnant of that, but I keep my eyes closed during solves now. If I have my eyes open and can see any light around the edges it's too distracting.
 
Nice job! I'm still working on it. I hope to get that good one day! I've looked up tutorials on M2, but for now, I'm sticking with Old Pochmann. I'll probably evolve my technique once I actually get a few solves under my belt. :D Keep it up!! Way to go!
 
Great job, and I think this is completely legit. You are really fast at M2! Do you have plans to switch toward 3style/BH/Freestyle for edges?

I personally know I dip my head sometimes when I run into a hard cycle which is also a tell for when I am struggling through a hard test problem.
 
Lol. I have another good one on film. I'll post it here later. From now on I'm keeping my head down while filming. Derp.

Just updated the OP with another one, for those who weren't satisfied with the first =P
