Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

@fanwuq: It's nonlucky, but I don't think you should count it because you used someone else's scramble. Sure it's really easy, but only 2 pieces solved. And a 7-cycle of corners is faster to do than 2 3-cycles + orient, and I'm sure you don't think a 7-cycle is lucky.

49.68 on Ville's scramble
really good scramble

Yay!

OK, I'll just count my lucky definition as memorizing less than 14 pieces of information. The average is about 16-20 for me.

Edit:
Wow! According to the speedcubing.com guidelines, it is not lucky! That's ridiculous. I still won't count it, How can my first sub-3 be 2:02? It doesn't feel right. I need to get a few 2:4x first.

this isn't too hard.

1:40.63, new personal best by 2 seconds. Memo was sub-40, but I just can't get faster execution (1 minute exec. is fast for me). I'll try and learn freestyle I guess.

 

[fanwuq]

Ok, I just got my legitimate sub-3 min solve that I'll count as my new PB!
I did this in school between classes.
1:16.22 memo
1:36.49 execution
total= 2:52.71

 

[Ville Seppänen]

9:16.53 5x5BLD. About 4:20 memo. Sub9 isn't hard, it's just hard to get successful I'll get it soon. This makes 2 successes in a row (10:10 yesterday), which is probably my record.

Holy moly Ville! haha
I just went on here and i saw you posted a minute ago on BLD accomplishment thread and i said out loud, "oh god what did he get now?!"
and what do you know

Great job

 

[Mike Hughey]

Congratulations, Ville.

Once you hit a good one in competition, it seems likely that it will be a long time before someone takes that record from you. But you've got to get one first.

Congratulations, Ville! Now see if you can beat Rafal. (I know he's posted a sub-30 before on here.)

A lot of delays on edge recall, but that will be fixed with practice. Corners were difficult for me, since I had to break into new cycles twice. I also got it on vid, its processing now.

Since I'm done with school after tomorrow I will be able to practice more. I might actually reach my goal of sub-3 by the new year.

That's a really nice scramble! 56.86 on it! (at 4:25am )

 

[martijn_cube]

I just had my 2nd succesfull bld solve. Last one was a while ago, and recently i started to practice again.
1st solve is in my sig.
2nd solve: 5:40.28.
Memo was still visual, but i went alot faster then the first time.
memo was something like 3 min i think.
I want to do a succesfull bld solve on benelux open

That's pretty fast for your second solve! Keep it up and you'll be sub-2 in no time =]

 

[Faz]

Who has the fastest first ever blindfolded solve, Let me start off.


4:11 - Can anyone beat that? Although I did have about 20 DNF's before that.

Only one person has the first ever blindfolded solve.
It was probably John White, but definitely not you.

tnx. i hope so . i now started to learn the letter-memo. so soon i can stop doing visual, first goal is somewhere around the 3 min. Sub 2 still looks very fast to me

HAHAHA , no I meant personally.

3:27:50 (3x3 BLD)
Whoa, that beat my old record of 4:03 by miles!
Can't really say that it was lucky. 1:32 memo.

 

[Rubixcubematt]

yay, another sub 1:30 solve . this isn't a pb, but it was good enough to be posted here. it was a 1:28. im pretty sure that it was non-lucky, but maybe I'm wrong. Its an awesome scramble. L2 F' U' R' F' L U' L2 U' B2 D B D R' B2 F2 L2 U' L' B' D U' L' R U2
