Today is the best day for me in BLD!
I beat the UWR for fastest memo, using Journey. Literally, my memo was super fast! I got an 8 1/2 second, just barely beating Ville. Seriously, I've been practicing for so long to beat Ville's memo record, and I finally did it! Total time was about 58 seconds, but I didn't care. As soon as I finished memo, I was so excited and afraid that I wouldn't succeed. I am about to post this on speedsolving.com

Thanks, I was really proud of myself, possibly even more than solving a 4x4 BLD. Ville, it's time for you to beat me.

EDIT: Wow! Wow! Wow! I just got a new PB on 3x3 BLD. This makes 3 BLD accomplishments in 1 day!

that is so fast! but i dont know if it really is the official UWR. not many people post to speedcubing.com. but thats still just awsome :D
 
Congratulations, byu!! That is insane!! I had thought that journey method was for 3x3 Multi-BLD or Big cubes BLD.

Most active around 4 Pacific time, but I am out of town and probaly won't be using it. If you want to talk about bod, you can pm Gparker or happa95, both of them visit the chateoom
 
I did 10 solves around midnight this morning/last night.
2:55.50 (1:18)
3:58 DNF (1:24) off by 2 CO
3:03.56 (1:16)
POP (0:56) I think on a J perm during corners.
2:18.69 (0:58) Very good solve for me.
2:32 DNF (0:48) :( Good memo, but DNF by 4 edges
DNF (0:55) Good memo, but I misturned during the middle of the solve and lost my train of thoughts.
2:51 DNF (1:04) By 3 edges
DNF (1:16) I misturned during the middle of the solve and lost my train of thoughts.
2:58.72 (1:08)

I've achieved the goal for sub-3 min average on BLD, but with only 40% accuracy. Time to change my sig to sub-40s corners BLD. I used to be good at corners while using my syllable memo method, now I suck at visual corners. I need to get back to that level using visual.
 
Don't know if I believe byou.

sometimes i think that. it can be quite hard to believe sometimes.


On topic: my average of 5(non rolling), i think this is my first with no dnfs :)

Easy, but 8.5 seconds memo is unbelievable. Corners were easy shapes, but memorizing that flipped edge was annoying for me. I also had difficult sounds for edge memo.

I'll believe you for now, but it is pretty suspicious. We will see at your next competition.

finally my first bld solve! it took forever though, i know the solve was 7:49 (slow method), but the memo was probably around like 10min, i had to confirm all the positions, because i used to mess up alot and didnt know why

this was around my 10th attempt at solving it, it was awesome to take off that blindfold and see a solved cube
