6x6+ Blindfolded Rankings Thread

I've now done a Megaminx bld in 44:15.6 (memo 28:18)
Video [video]http://mats.bergshamra.net/Video/Megaminx.mp4[/video]

I also have videos for my (old) 6x6 [video]http://mats.bergshamra.net/Video/6x6hd.mp4[/video]
and 7x7 [video]http://mats.bergshamra.net/Video/MB7x7.mpeg[/video].

The memo time for the 6x6 solve was 15:38 (it is listed as unknown).
 
Well, quite embarrassing that it took two more weeks to even get my second successful 6BLD solve, but at least it's sub-50!

Memo: 29:10.19
Execution: 20:34.30
Total: 49:44.49

I plan to hit sub-40 relatively soon, and with any luck I'll catch it on video.
 

Seems like you don't have any execution mistakes (as in missed setup moves) and you still have unsolved pieces in 5 different piece groups (both wing sets, both oblique sets and corners). That means that you must have a memo or a recall error in at least 5 different places.

Well you might have memoed and recalled correctly and just executed the wrong cycle but at least for me that is very rare occasion because remembering the lettering scheme is so automatic already...

His memo would have to be pretty off to get that many inner and outer wing pieces off, though. At least six inner wings from what I can see, and four outer. Three corners, too. If there are two more inner wings, four more outer wings, and another corner misplaced on the other sides, I'd be inclined to think he made a small mistake or two recalling the obliques, and then made an extra face turn somewhere near or after the end of all the centers.

He has all the x-centers solved so probably not a missed turn because that should misalign some x-centers as well.
 
Hi everybody! The day before yesterday I did my first successful attempt for solving Rubik's cube 6x6x6 blndfolded. This attempt was 16'th. Video is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GblL5WgfJLA The most interesting thing is I started to learn 6x6x6 only 18 of December and did it in 13 days. Memorization: 1 hour and 14 minutes. Solving: 56 minutes. Total time: 2 hours and 10 minutes. What do you think about this?:)) As for as I am concerned, I can be ranked 28 in the list in the first page because my time is 2:10:00. What do you think about this?
 
Thanks you have added me to the list :) but my surname is AzarenkO, not Azarenka. Change this, please

6BLD, total time of 33:19.11 minutes, with 17:40.29 minutes of memo. After so many narrowly failed sub-30 solves already I was hoping succeeding at at least one of them wouldn't be so difficult, but it's still good to finally beat my record after a dry spell. Hoping to move on to 7BLD soon.

Hi everybody! I have done my new record. I've solved cube 7x7x7 blindfolded!!! It was the 30th attempt. Memorization: 47 minutes and 20 seconds. Solving: 42 minutes and 10 seconds. Total time: 1 hour 29 minutes and 30 seconds. Well, it took me 22 days. As far as I am concerned, it is 12th in your table. Yes, the 30th attempt, but I have solved in finally!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7l7JAM8SWRY. Thanks=)
 
WOW!

6BLD success at 2nd attempt sooner than I thought I would get it...

42:01.04[21:25.11] R' r B' 3r' b R B' 3r' r D' r' D' R 3f' d' B D2 3u2 U' L2 b2 u' b2 B' d' U2 R D' 3u' U' L2 3r' 3u R L2 r2 u2 B' f' 3f' 3u' d l u R2 u' l' R2 B2 R2 B l' R r' 3f r' 3r' F2 l2 d2 U2 B' D f 3u2 R2 3r 3f D f 3u2 r' 3f' r' f' b2 d 3u2 B D'

Slow but I'll take it.
I was making VERY safe memo and had to think very long before each oblique commutator which layer to turn so ok I guess

(most important thing: I got it before ollicubes did )

Next I will tackle 7BLD
