Another 3Cube MBLD
1/3 44:56.46[33:37.53]

One cube is off by three corners
and the other is [B' D B D'] to three corners and then roux lse dots case.

I didn't have any trouble holding the information, which is good. Last time I forgot the edges on my last cube.

For the last one, I accidentally started doing corner memo as edges, then had to backtrack, which is probably why I got a centre swap somehow.

Quite happy with three mostly solved cubes which is why this isn't in BLD Fails thread

1:45.32 3BLD mo3.

(Kind of a fail too though, because this should have been the ao5 time, with a 1:37ish mo3; the solve immediately before these was a 1:23.xy DNF by a flipped edge that I memoed but forgot to exec...

3/3 29:47.86[20:55.11]

1. D2 L2 R2 F2 U R2 U2 L2 U' L2 B2 R F D2 R2 D2 B' U' L' U2 R2 Fw' - GANS 356S v2
5:22.07/~5:12.71

I sort of forgot the last four targets on my first memoed/last executed cube. I placed fingers on all the solved pieces, and was able to trigger my memory.

2. D R2 D L2 U B2 D L2 U' B2 U D D U' B' U L' R' B2 L' B2 Rw' Uw2 - MoYu AoLong v2
6:25.80/~1:48.27 (I forgot to change the splits total was 7:00.98; the splits in italics are estimated)

3. R2 U2 D2 L' B' R' F' B2 L' U F2 D2 R2 D L2 U F2 R2 D2 L2 Rw' Uw' - QiYi Thunderclap
4:58.12/1:51.09

+ 4:09.12 walking through my rooms to make sure I remembered everything

So hyped about the success, this was only my fourth attempt.
4/4 is my next goal. Hopefully I can be sub-felix by the end of the year.

Just got a successful 3bld solve where I completely guessed on 3 edge targets o_O To clarify:
After finishing (what I had thought was) edge execution, I realized I only memorized an even number of edge targets but an odd number of corner targets. I singled out the two edges that I hadn't shot to yet in my execution and shot to one, the other, and then the other side of the first, completely guessing with no visual memory of what had been in those spots. Turned out to be a success. Felt so insanely lucky lol

3BLD success with a 12h delay.

4:57.98 -12h- 2:10.29

Memo was done at about 3:30, and I had been double checking for about a minute before I realized that the memo had been fast enough for a pb lol.

I would have gone for a 24h or week delay, but I was using my main :p instead of one of my qiyi sails.

Also, MBLD 2/4 40:21.03[29.06.56]
First attempt at 4 cubes. The last one was one of the solved cubes, so it would have been 1/4 40:00 unfortunately.
One cube just two flipped edges, and the other one I got confused which memo it was.
Pretty satisfied with the result. I should probably practice more 3BLD to get better at memo though.
