[Unofficial] Oto Aoyagi 3x3Blindfold: 19.88 single

[Ollie]

I feel for those with glasses who practice BLD - must be an absolute nightmare for scrambling and stuff.

Yeah, this seems more legit. But doesn't make the original 19s more credible.

Yeah, I am glad that I can see colours and even scrambles without my glasses xD

About solves: This video seems 100% ok, memo is ok, solve is ok.
But the 19.xx on the video was a fake and I think it should be obvious for everyone who practice BLD - memo was faked in a very bad way

Yeah...

Just compare memo on these solves to the memo of the 19.88 single

In these solves he memoes like ALL other fast BLDers by rotating the cube quickly from side to side in order to see all the pieces he needs to see.

Now in the single solve video he just casually scanned all sides just ONCE then looked at the timer to see if enough time had passed to start executing. There is no way he could memo all cycles without rotating the cube more than he did

He uploaded new BLD video, time is 20.45!!!!!
I think this solve is absolutely legit.

Yeah, that looks more like a BLD solve to me this time

BUT he already faked one solve and didn't even admit to do so, so it makes it harder to trust in him in the future solves whether legit or not... :/

Perhaps all of your comments just explained how to make the solve look more legit?

That was what I first thought about to be honest... That he has just learned how to fake solves better :/
Of course I can't know if this is real or not and usually I believe everyones times without a doubt but if someone has faked solves before I find it hard to trust them anymore. Especially if they haven't admitted and apologized for it afterwards...
