[Derrick Eide17]

alright it's time to post the CRAZIEST or weirdest or silliest puzzle you have solved Blindfolded so far. for me a few days ago i Blindfold solved A virtual
1x2x3 cube on Isosimcube lol it felt weird and took a few tries but i got a pb of 2.94 seconds. anyway what about you guys??

I think I've done a Gordian's Knot puzzle without looking, if that counts as the type of "puzzle" you're asking for.

 

[Derrick Eide17]

Lucas: did you solve the square-1 from cube shape?

 

[Derrick Eide17]

wow cool guys some cool and AMAZING stuff done there. i have never even done a 4x4 BLD but i came close in my only ONE attempt. lol i should do more shouldn't I?

Gordian's Knot:
It's a sliding puzzle, basically I just memorized the answer and I did it without looking.

Was the 1x1x1 scrambled?

And doing Magic/Master Magic blindfolded is great! I can only do it in 1 look, not blindfolded though (think about the difference!)

One of my favorites is 3x3x3 2-gen BLD. Scramble in 2-gen and solve in 2-gen, only just like a BLD solve. Not sure what my pb is, but it's around 2:15 I think.

I also like doing the 2x2x3 BLD, though I usually just do this for fun and I have no idea what my pb is.

Of course I'm excited about my 6x6x6 BLD solve as well, and I can't wait to try the 7x7x7 ;-)

[Derrick Eide17]

haha many cool ones. and yeah man 6x6x6 BLD is CRAZY how long did that take you chris? or did you even time? and yes 7x7x7 will be HARD. also you still gonna put a 5x5 BLD video on the net? or maybe even 6x6...

 

[cmhardw]

I tried 6x6x6 BLD 3 times at worlds and DNF'd the first two and got it successfully the third and final time. I was going only for success, and had no care for how fast it took. I reviewed my memorization about 3-4 times through before starting each solve since I knew I would only get a handful of attempts over the weekend.

The time took 1 hour 48 minutes 52.93 seconds and I spent about 63 minutes memorizing. I think with a lot of practice, and going for speed, that I could get sub-45 minutes. I think with a *LOT* of practice I might be able to get a sub-30 minute solve. Matyas could possibly get sub-20 minutes on this cube if his big cube progression keeps following roughly twice as long for each larger size cube, though this is just my prediction.

When the olympicubes come out and I do eventually try the 7x7x7 BLD I don't care how long it takes me, I just want to successfully get it ;-)

Do it over 4 days, like Mondo's 40 cube multi-bld, haha. I'm sure you'll be successful.

 

[dbeyer]

I tried a multi blind on 5x5. Three 5x5x5s, at worlds. I was bored on Sunday. I messed up a few cycles, and forgot corners.

I had a blast that day. Dude, I actually found a picture of me in the "OK Magazine," in the picture this section.

The caption was

"A cuber practicing blindfolded cubing."

Dude I thought I saw flashes of cameras. Haha.

 

[clement]

I did a 2x2x3, 2x2x6, rubik's domino and rubik's cheese

[tim]

solved the 2x2 penguin blindfolded without memorizing. Took me about 5 minutes.

the other day I memorized a pack of cards in order and attempted to play a game of solitaire, carefully setting it up [blindfolded] and played through the whole thing, i finished the game, but when i reviewed the piles they were off by like 4 cards in each, and one pile had about 6 cards less than it should have, hah. the worst part of this rediculous thing, was that i knew what was in the piles during the game, so it was kinda boring, but having to constantly recall them was very difficult after a while, expecially considering how i memorized, i didn't use a method, just memorized order [maybe 30 minutes to meorize, give or take 10 minutes.

all in all.. horrible failure. :]
