Blindsolving Failure Thread

[Faz]

I learned M/2 for edges and now I can't blindsolve.

Tch, you should have learnt M2

First 5x5 centers BLD attempt:
31/48 centers solved
Not surprised, I noticed a couple of mistakes I had to undo, so there would of been some I didn't notice. Unless of course it was the memorising that went wrong.

3x3 BLD in 6:16.73 off by 10 edges and 6 corners o_o

2 caps fell off right at the start, and that may have made me slip in an alg or something, or I may have started in the wrong orientation

1:11.27, DNF(1:38.84), DNF(1:29.71), DNF(1:40.55), DNF(1:44.52) Total average fail. Would have been a decent average, but I had stupid stupid DNF's. First one was off by an edge 3-cycle, then the last 3 were off by 2 misorientated edges each =\.

6:29.xy

UFR and UBL not solved

FL and BD not solved. (or something like that)

That was it..... I want another success.

Come on, man.


So, I was practising edges BLD on 3x3x3 when this kid walks up (EDIT: a few days ago), takes my cube in the middle of exec, scrambles it, and gives it back and says "Now solve it!"
I whacked him on the back of the head.

Ya it's 4 times faster

And by the way, once you get used to M2, it's going to be quite simple for you, so just keep doing solves

Haha. I've had that happen too. It's soo annoying.

3x3 = 2 seconds gave up

Why not show it in the video? It's quite a crucial part of the process...

Just a warning that if you want to film bld then you should really show your face. You will get many people who don't believe you and will accuse you of cheating if you don't - especially once you get quicker. Good job on your progress so far though

ah... well, just before I read this comment, I recorded a 5:36 success not showing my face

And thanks, started BLD 1 week ago

If people start accusing me of cheating, (there is actually a part in the 5:36 success where it looks like I'm cheating, but I put a title on the video saying why I did a random cube rotation and then undid it.) I can hopefully go to UK nationals, and if I can, I will do BLD there.

Eh, there's no point worrying about showing your face. People will suspect you of cheating no matter what you do. So just prove it by solving in a competition.

This is the perfect explanation to this problem.
