DNFed a 5:48.05[2:48.94] 5bld single

DNF by 5 xcenters because I did a comm backwards and omitted another comm. Fairly lucky scramble, number of targets:

xcenters: 18 (included omitted comm)
+centers: 17
wings: 9 comms + setup to parity alg for a 2 swap out side of buffer, so really 21 targets
midges: 12
corners: 8+twist

Reconstructed it for funsies, apparently I had 2.34 tps which actually seems pretty good for 5bld lol

Spoiler: recon with ridiculously long link that even bit.ly couldnt shorten

Soooo 5BLD home success still yet to come. How is this even possible

Soooo 5BLD home success still yet to come. How is this even possible

You have to be in pretty rare company. Having a 5BLD in competition (success in your first and only attempt!) but never succeeding at home is pretty hilariously amazing!

I have this feeling you're going to suddenly get one, and then just get one after another after another. And probably become pretty good at it pretty quickly. So persevere!

5BLD 4:39.23[1:49.48] DNF by 3 wings.

 

[Cale S]

2-7BLD attempt

only solved even cubes....

DNF(34.16)[14](Misscramble) L' R2 U B2 U' F2 L2 F2 U2 B2 D' F' L2 R' B L2 U2 L F' R2 Rw'
Off by three edges. Not that upset but it was kind of easy

 

[Ollie]

Little practice session, mostly 30-45s solves, then this silly scramble, utter garbo:

25.09 - L2 D2 R2 B L2 F' U2 R2 F2 D2 F2 D' B L2 U' L U B' D' F'

Spoiler

6 algs

Spoiler: solution

D' R U' R' D2 R U R' D' // [D': [R U' R', D2] alright
[R: [U2, L D2 L']] // garbo
[y': [U', R' D R]] // garbo
M' U' R' U M2 U' R U M' // good
[D: [M', U R2 U']] // garbo
M' U' M U' M' U' M U' // good

fyi I lost the original scramble, so recreated it on CubeExplorer

 

[Gregory Alekseev]

5BLD 4:20 DNF by 3 wings. Didn't memorize one last letter and had parity as last alg(instead of fast comm), which also caused 8 seconds long lockup lol. So if I memorized last letter that would be like 10 seconds faster success.

Spoiler: Last few seconds of solve + reaction video

 

[sigalig]

Missed a 6:42 5bld mo3 by 2 xcenters on the last solve not sure what went wrong there, too lazy to check. Got a PB single in there though, first sub-6

26:58.33[14:59.14] 7bld DNF by 3 obliques and 3 inner x-centers. Would have been unofficial NAR
Pretty proud of that 11:59.19 execution time though, not gonna lie lol. Just barely slower than the exec on Tom's former UWR

Edit: Had to try one more. DNFed cus i forgot to undo a 3L' setup move for an inner wing comm. Time was 26:15.02[14:40.52], this time exec was sub-Tom's former UWR heeheehee

 

[CornerCutter]

I just tried my first two attempts on 3BLD. Both had just 4 pieces off. I need to work some more on edges.

 

[Daniel Lin]

last solve should have been a 17 but nerves killed me. i'm not even going to upload because this could have been so much better :/

1:12.86 DNF. Missed 11s PB by a silly M slice error.

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

did a 5bld, off by 4 midges (exe mistake), 2+ center (exe mistake) and 2 wings (missed in memo)

memo was 6:57, still happy because I remembered everything
next attempt will hopefully be a success again

 

[applezfall]

I got 9:48 3bld(yeah I suck my 3rd(almost) succes ever) I did M' instead M so I was off by M2 lol

 

[applezfall]

lol got 5:48 but it was off by 3 edges lol

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

probably the easiest 4bld scrmable I've had, messed up center memo really badly. off by 2c3w

[FastCubeMaster]

Missing an extremely safe 4BLD attempt (27:30) at Australian nationals by about 6 wings. One person got a success.

Also, I got 6/7 in MBLD and my mistake was forgetting to solve 2 flipped edges I had put in visual memory.
Unofficially 3rd place though
