Curunír's 3BLD progression thread | quitting 3bld :(

[yes cubing]

I'm pretty suspicious of this result tbh. 14.82 on 9 algs, and with pretty bad quality comms as well? Doesn't seem probable to me.

Maybe post a video of you doing a 3bld solve? Just one solve should be enough to tell whether you are legit or not.

I'd say it's fine. If memo was four seconds, leaving nearly 11 seconds for algs, 1-1.5 seconds per alg seems legit

 

[precompsubwr]

So that's around mid 7 tps, reasonable considering in 2016 the top bld solver(s) were doing 9 tps

 

[GloopyGum]

Hard to say for sure until we see a video (ps the 4 second memo is way more suspicious)

 

[Curunír]

Spoiler: contains info on scramble so don't open if you're yet to compete

How do you get PB on a 9 alger lol
Also funny how you use a different alg than me for each of the edge cases, I use
R' FS' R S R2 S' R F'S R
ML' U M' U2 M U LM2
U' L E L2 E' L U M
Lw'M' U' L U M U' L' U Lw
M' U2 M' U2 M2
Although in the solve I EU SK which is kinda sad

Without lifting the cover and orienting I hope? Because with that I can only trace through it around 4.8 while already knowing the memo haha (although I am a bit washed so that might contribute)

I didn't have cover on me so I just didn't look down while I started the timer, I did chuck the cube so it would have random orientation

I don't actually know how fast my memo was I'm just guessing based on how fast I would have done exec

also if you don't think its valid for the weekly comp since I didn't use a cube cover I can DNF it if you want

 

[Curunír]

Hard to say for sure until we see a video (ps the 4 second memo is way more suspicious)

here is a video where I got 6 sec memo from about a month ago (the turning on this solve was really bad)

oh and I have switched a lot of the comms I use here for better ones already so please don't roast me for them

when 3bld in a 3x3 round the judge can't even say 8 seconds

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

also if you don't think its valid for the weekly comp since I didn't use a cube cover I can DNF it if you want

oh no I really don't care haha I was just wondering because it would be very impressive if it was with cover and unknown orientation

 

[Curunír]

oh no I really don't care haha I was just wondering because it would be very impressive if it was with cover and unknown orientation

just unknown orientation and I think it was like an x or a y rotation off so pretty much no orientation time
I don't really even consider it to be PB

 

[GloopyGum]

seems pretty legit
good luck on future progression!

exactly one year ago I asked my mum if I could watch Jperm's 3bld tutorial and then spent the afternoon learning the Old Pochman method
now I average sub-25


and after one year I have
gotten to sub-1 in under 8 weeks with M2/OP and sub-50 soon after that
I got a sub-30 single with M2/3-style on the 8th of January (while on the Bluebridge ferry)
I got a sub-20 single with an 18.96 (with a 6 Alger) on the 6th of June and the day after that reached 1,000 3bld successes with full 3-style

all in all I think this year has been quite good for me and I cant wait to see what I can do in the years to come

I haven’t been following your progression thread for that long, but I’ve already seen some amazing improvement!
I’m excited to see what you produce at nats later this year!
What’s that sound I hear? Oh wait it’s James trembling in fear.

I might just be able to race you if you do 3BLD and I do sighted 3x3

 

[Curunír]

I think I might quit 3bld
I haven't really been doing much solves recently and the few solves I have done haven't been very good

I feel like kind of burnt out all of my energy to do 3bld and so my break will be indefinite

I am still going to be competing on the 14 of September and I hope I can get a decent result so at least all of the effort I have put in wont be for nothing

Are you learning another event or algset? Hopefully this break isn’t forever

I've mostly been doing 4D puzzles though I might try and work on 3x3 a bit
