I need suggestions for the shortest way to explain how MBLD works or in other words,

A text description to explain MBLD without confusing the person or make them feel intimidated

To a non-BLDer
To a new cuber
To non-cubers
To non-cubers who don't listen well

P.S.: I am getting drafts from GPTs as well, but I would love human suggestions.

If you find this discussion ridiculous and pointless, please avoid commenting. Also trolling is not entertained
 
MBLD is an event where someone tries to solve as many cubes blindfolded as they can. The competitor picks a number of cubes they wish to attempt to solve. When the attempt begins, they see that number of scrambled cubes for the first time. After memorizing all of them, they put on a blindfold and must solve all of them. The time limit is 10 minutes per cube attempted, with a max of 60 minutes. Scoring is based on cubes completed minus the cubes unsolved. Scores are written as such: 38/40 59:30, meaning 38 cubes solved of 40 attempted in a time of 59 minutes and 30 seconds. This would be a result of 36 points.

Yeah that would be good for non-cuber(who listens well)

Slight correction it's number of cubes solved - number of cubes unsolved not attempted (although you obviously know that since you proceeded to do the calculation correctly)
