13:18.04 6BLD DNF by 3 centers

5BLD 5:45 DNF by 3 wings - I executed inverse of the 3 cycle that I had to execute. z U R U' r' U R' U' r z' instead of z r' U R U' r U' R' U' z'

Second attempt at 6BLD: 33:05.26[20:25.42] DNFed by 26 obliques.

Sucks wasting this much time...but I'm pretty sure that when I get a success it'll be sub-30 minutes at the most, since my second attempt was 12 minutes faster than my first

Pretty sure my obliques were basically scrambled most likely because I did a left oblique comm when I was supposed to do a right oblique comm. Obliques really mess with my spatial reasoning skills...

I decided to try 6BLD too and got DNF 22:12.99[11:18.36]
It was off by 3 outer x-centers. I memorize them last with sentences before corners, so it should be the easiest thing after corners. That's why I am very angry, everything hard solved, but ez x-centers are not.

14:15.70 6BLD DNF by 3 corners

Corners not even edges or obliques ouch

I execute corners first but I had parity, and when I did the last target at the end I did C instead of P because my previous attempt had C as the last target (but I popped the cube a few comms in...)

6BLD DNF by 3 obliques

edit: 4th attempt today, off by one move somewhere

I'll just try for a 7BLD pb tomorrow

6BLD really sucks.............I want a success so bad lol this is frustrating.

29:13.31[16:21.85] DNFed by 2 outer x-centers. The first time I get obliques completely right, and the first time I didn't get outer x-centers completely right lol. I traced to the correct outer x-center in memo but I memo'd the wrong letter -_-

LOL you guys....

Race for 6BLD success?

 

[Gregory Alekseev]

I am sad... I did super ultra safe MBLD 24 cubes attempt, and got 22/24 56:36.59[37:16.40]
Why am I sad?
DNFs:
1.Forgot to execute corners(I remembered them, but forgot to execute). And I realised that 3 seconds after I put that cube on the table. I picked the cube and executed them, but in wrong orientation(because I picked cube wrongly).
2.Did parity alg, but that cube hadn't parity. lmao.
I am crying. I almost NEVER have execution mistakes. And now I had two absolutely stupid errors.
I need more cubes. 24 is all that I have, and I do them sub-hour completely safely, MBLD gets boring for me .

Race for 6BLD success?

I just got it

10:02.34 Megaminx Blind DNF by two flipped corners.

 

[sigalig]

Just tried my first 7BLD -- catastrophic DNF lol. I have four centers off...never a good sign. There were a couple times in there during some center comms where I wasn't sure if I sliced the correct layer or not, I'm guessing that's what caused the snowball effect. I have about half of the obliques, outer x-centers and wings solved but that's it.

EDIT: Oh yeah and the time was 47:09.82[26:13.19]. Feels really slow, memo could have been a lot better. I think it'll definitely be sub-40 when I get my first success.

DNF(1:15.71) D B2 U2 F2 R' D2 L R2 U2 L' U2 F' R' B2 L2 U' B' F' L2 D2 Fw'

Off by 2 flipped edges I didn't see in memo cos I was rushing when I saw all the solved stuff

There are no flipped edges. Probably you did wrong alg somewhere.

Ooh yeah I probably did, whoops.
My accuracy has been really low lately, I just really check what I do wrong each solve :/

8:23.84[4:15.75] 5BLD DNF by 2 x-centers and two flipped midges. Would have been PB by almost exactly one minute
