Blindsolving Failure Thread

About 20 5x5x5 BLD DNFs in a row today.

Um, that's just sick. 20 5x5x5 BLD attempts in one day? Even I wouldn't do that! Very impressive; I'm jealous.

 

[PM 1729]

Average of 12 attempt: DNF
1:51 ,DNF , 1:57 ,1:55 ,1:52 , 2:01, 2:00, DNF ,1:41 ,DNF ,1:38 ,1:57
Worst part, two of the DNFs were 3 corners off. One was just scrambled.

My BLD failure was that I didn't do any BLD yesterday.

I do one a week and that kills my brain enough!

Should have been sub-1, but missed the timer.

Solution (cos.. I did some good stuff for me)
corners:
F' (R U' L' U R' U' L U) F
R2 U L U' R2 U L' U'
edges:

[blah]

2 sub-15 DNFs.

 

[Slash]

2 sub-15 DNFs.

25 more and you'll get a successful solve

 

[TMOY]

4^3 BLD in 15.33 (4.48 memo)... failed by a flipped dedge. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Obviously a memo error.

 

[Truncator]

I've failed a few 7:xx 3x3 BLD attempts. I've had one success ever.

I don't like doing BLD because I can't find a good corner memo

 

[Hyprul 9-ty2]

14:40.64 DNF on the 4x4. Just a setup move wrong ending in a 3 cycle of centers and 5 dedges
But this is actually good, it shows that I can do it faster now, memo was sub 7

You are really into Multi now
Congratulations to the Swedish NR!

Is the picture in your WCA profile from your NR? It's a great picture - great reaction! Congratulations.

 

[Isbit]

well thanks guys!
yes, the picture is from the video of the last cube, you can find it here. I think 6 cubes is a bit too much for me at the moment, but i'll keep on practise!

 

[blah]

Get a proper memo system.

 

[Yes We Can!]

I just tried my first M2 solve, and I got it, but it was off by a M2 move.
So, it's DNF, what a stupid regulation.

 

[Death_Note]

6 DNFs in 7 cubes (not multibld)
i really suck at bld

About 20 5x5x5 BLD DNFs in a row today.

So I guess I suck more.

Thought I would post my 5x5x5BLD DNF from Benelux here. According to the judge I had everything correct until a point where I had parity left to do. I also had 2 midges flipped due to my limited knowledge of M2 algs, but I knew this as well. So...I did M2 (the move not the method!) to leave me with 2 midges and 2 corners (and 2 flipped midges). Then I figured out in my head how to set up for the parity fix. Then I stupidly forgot that I had already done M2 and did M2 again before setting up for parity fix. Then I carried on. So this left me with a few line of centres and some midges. DNF because of one stupid extra move at the end
