Yes yes yes finally a sub-1:30! Splits were 35.60/38.46.

I've been really really pushing memo recently, I'm consistently sub-45 for that. Unfortunately that comes at the cost of very low success percentage. I need to review my list of letter pairs, I often can't remember the word I have for it and end up substituting the phonetic sound of the letters, which obviously becomes problematic when executing (e.g. is 'caw' CA or KA or KW?)

I haven't done blind in a while, but I'm still about same speed, which is nice.

Woah those corners...
splits were 37.21/34.00, memo was 'slow' which for 37 seconds for me is crazy. I definitely could have made this sub-1:10 but when I saw how good corners were I really did not want to screw it up

Edit: also my cstimer session is saying I have exactly 20% accuracy (20/100)

First 4BLD attempt!

DNF(56:23.83[~45m])
What is messed up:
13 centers
8 edges
0 corners

None of the edges unsolved were missed in pairs, so there is always half a dedge, and the cube looks pretty decent.
Centers are pretty bleh though.

Also, it was a spur of the moment thing, so I timed it on my watch and the cube was hand scrambled.

The sad thing was I literally messed up/had to back track on each section of the cube.
On centers, I had done UBL instead of UFR because it was my second target. I realized about 5 targets later, so something probably was messed up there.
On edges I had a cycle break and thought I had executed/memoed the wrong piece, whent back, realized I hadn't and continued solving.
On corners I started with the wrong piece but realized halfway through my Y-perm. Easy fix.

I might have a comp in mid-late January, and it has 5BLD.
I have two months.

Hey, my first 5BLD attempt will probably be in a comp in 1 month. I plan to not train at all before!

I just need to figure out what type of tweaking my xcenter algs need to work for +centers and hopefully I can have my first 5BLD attempt be in two days on Monday. Hoping for a sub-1:30m attempt and a vaguely solved cube.

I used a Maskow T perm in an official BLD solve! It wasn't exactly like Maskow had it, since I had to do a setup move and rotate before the T perm, but I'm really happy I was able to recognize that it was possible and do it successfully. The solve is also my official PB now, 1:11!

 

[joshsailscga]

LOL still at 20% accuracy with 22/110. Two successes today were 1:19 and 1:22. The 1:22 could have been much faster because during edges I was supposed to execute e but did o by accident, so the sequence went o-e-e to undo the mistake. Obviously those are not the fastest algs in M2, so that cost me a bit

 

[Heart_Johnson]

Got an official 42.17 at ODUBWW on saturday, dnf'd a 38 by two flipped edges, but still glad i got a 42 nonetheless.

 

[GenTheSnail]

First 5BLD attempt:

DNF (1:34:02.19[1:15])

Spoiler: Break Down of the Solve

The time displayed by the timer when I finnished memo
8:40 - x centers
24:40 - + centers
52:30 - wings
1:01:20 - midges
1:05:xx - corners
1:15:20 - review of centers and wings (but not 3x3 pieces?)

1:34:02.19 - execution

There were three moments during execution were I realized I may have made a mistake.
LD + center, I wasn't sure if I had done the setup moves right, but I did
BDr wing, I wasn't sure if I had done the l', so I did it again. wrong
BD midge, I accidentally didn't review these, and I had that piece like three times

Fairly satisfied with this attempt. Centers are still scrambled so that's disheartening, but almost all of the edges are solved, and I got perfect corners. And I fit everything into only 2 rooms, so I can try 5 MBLD (2 rooms + normal BLD) without reusing any rooms as I have 5 rooms.


At MCC Alpha 2016, they only have 45 allotted for 5BLD, so my goal is sub-40 in 2 months.
I really need to get better and wings. They take forever for me to memo.
