What memory sports do you do to practice for BLD?

Hey, not sure if this is the right place to ask, but could you please not allow the program to have a double letter in a pair? It's pretty annoying as it obviously doesn't happen in a solve. : )

Excellent. I've been using this recently for 3BLD corner image practice. It's a really nice tool and is now even better.

None. I also think "reading" letter pairs off a scrambled cube fast while simultaneously memorising it is kind of a skill in itself, and something memory programmes can't provide as they give you all the information on a metaphorical silver platter

I'm pretty sure all world class BLDers have managed to hone and master this skill. Pretty amazing.

The website memoryleague.com is quite useful.
Sadly, it is quite inactive when it comes to competing.
The words section in it can resemble a BLD memorization process and Alex Mullen holds the site record in it with a score of 50 words memorized in 49.19 sec. The limits of this challenge are 60 seconds and 50 words at max.

Bumping this thread to shamelessly promote my recent creation: bestsiteever.ru/memory.

I couldn't find any good memory sports simulator/trainer that I can quickly use on mobile, so I've made my own.

Good job Roman, M' U' R S' R' U M E!

I had been using the memotools for over 2 years, and it has helped me get cognitively better with using letter quads.

I hope to use your new tool as well.

Also loved your 4BLD on the BMX backwards, M' D' M U L S' L' S U' M' D M!

I use humanbenchmark.com tests all the time. My favorite is the chimp test(94th percentile).

that's a cool site, my best categories are number memory and typing.

78 percentile for typing, and somehow 100th percentile for hearing. number memory is fun too, 84 percentile.

oh I am 76% for typing and 86th for number memory. I haven't tried hearing yet.
E: Hearing I got 83rd percentile.

I posted the link in the memory forum too. Let's see the review of the memory athletes if they try it out.
