: I did it!!! BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!! Now I know how Dennis felt after his 6x6BLD I memoed all edges, +centers and left obliques with images, Xcenters with letters and right obliques and corners visually, in that order. Solved corners, Xcenters and right obliques, then all edges, then rest of the centers and finally 2 parities. YAY!

Wow - so humbling. I've been working so hard to beat the UWR, and you just blew it out of the water on your first solve. Congrats! Very very impressive!

*gasp* very nice job! and easily sub hour! i bet you could get down to 30 minutes soon. Just wow!have you done 6x6 yet?

Ville, it occurs to me that GParker is right - you can probably get down to 30 minutes pretty easily. The fact is that a 7x7x7 is not all that different in difficulty from a 2-cube 5x5x5 multi. And Rafal was able to sub-30 those pretty easily, and you're a little faster than Rafal. I'm looking forward to seeing you do a sub-30 someday soon!

NO!!!!!!!! almost sub 3! Mike, i thinked you jinxed me! just kidding but you sir, are a fortune teller

 

[fanwuq]

3 successes in a row (actually I had 2 OH BLD DNFs between the 2nd and 3rd, but they don't count, I memorized them and basically immediately DNFed them on execution of corners).
First one: I memorized in 1:15, had to do something else for about 10min, executed in 1:25.
Second one: 2:50
3rd: 2:27.

i really dont know if i can, ill be using a lot of footage. maybe i can like rush memo a little

Multi

In the weekly contest just now: 5/5 with some time to spare (45:14 with 30:12 memo).

I sorted the cubes according to parity and flips/twists on the way while memoing.
Maybe it helped a little.

Just to annoy Gparker, I got this on my first try

I also got a 2:21.61 on film with L2 R2 D' B' D U R D' U' R D2 F2 R' D L R' F U2 R' F' L2 D U R' B' but that can hardly be counted.

Edit: lol I just watched the footage of the 2:21 for the first time, and 2 seconds in to memo I exclaim quite audibly "oh s%#@!"
