Mats B

2x2: 24.14 23.71 19.37 24.26 20.14 = 22.66 :(
3x3: 47.80 54.86 48.57 40.80 47.31 = 47.89 :(
4x4: 3:16.73 3:14.75 2:39.15 2:52.09 3:45.60 = 3:07.86
5x5: 7:44.61 7:15.40 6:44.30 6:49.84 9:34.58 = 7:16.62
2-4Rel: DNF
2-5Rel: 12:09.57

Blind
2x2BLD: dnf 44.91 dnf = 44.91
Plain bad, though no easy solves for me.
3x3BLD: dnf dnf dnf = DNF
Both slow and bad
4x4BLD: dnf dnf dnf = DNF
Mishandled parity alg on nr 1, arrgh.
5x5BLD: dnf dnf dnf = DNF
Last one was 2 +-centers off.
Multi: 7/8 = 6 in 56:25
One cube (nr 2) messed up because I lost orientation while fixing
twisted corners (I do that before the other solving). All else perfect. A pity

All in all a real bad week.
But no real interest in slowsolving and too much
interest in going (too) fast in blindsolving.

Thank you for your kind and encouraging words on solving a big cube blindfolded in the previous thread!

2x2x2: (07.74), 07.52, 07.73, (10.32), 09.82 = 08.43

3x3x3: 26.12, (21.17), 22.01, 26.05, (26.61) = 24.73

3x3x3 Blindfolded: 4:21.35, DNF [5:25.82], 4:30.33 = 4:21.35

4x4x4 Blindfolded: 25:51.86, DNF [29:23.55], DNS = 25:51.86
2nd: failed to undo a setup move

5x5x5 Blindfolded: DNF [65:30.88], 48:31.25, DNS = 48:31.25
1st: 5 centers unsolved

3x3x3 Multiple Blindfolded: 1/3, 27:55.84
1st: horrible, 2nd: 2 twisted corners left

3x3x3 Fewest Moves: 20 htm
YEEEES! YEEEEEEEES! I wrote down the following solution in 56 minutes.

Scramble: R' D' U2 B' R U L2 B2 D L' U R2 B' U F2 R' F' R2 U'
Solution: F D F2 U2 R D' R2 U' R U' L' D L' D2 F' D F D U F2

NISS solve.

(Normal)
Pre-scramble: L' U F2

2x2x2 block: F D F2
2x2x3 block: R D' R' L'

(Inverse)
Pre-scramble: L R D R' F2 D' F'

2x2x2 block: F2 U'
Extra 1x2x3: D' F' D' F
Finish F2L: D2 L D'
All but 3 corners: L U R' U R U2 L'
Pre-move correction: L R D R' * F2 D' F'

Insert at *: R D' R' U2 R D R' U2

11 moves cancel in total! I'm really satisfied with this result except that this is not an official record. :cool:

See - you're already getting much faster! Soon you'll be sub-30 on 5x5x5.

3x3x3 Fewest Moves: 20 htm
YEEEES! YEEEEEEEES! I wrote down the following solution in 56 minites.
Oh, wow! Congratulations, that's totally amazing!
 
Mike where are your results?
I always look forward to seeing yours and Mats' Results

I always try to submit mine when I'm done (or at least near done). I hope to do the multi tonight, so I'll probably submit them tomorrow.

I'm afraid I have a bad result this week - I think it's the first time this year that I got a DNF overall in 5x5x5 BLD. :(

My Mum lost my 4x4, 5x5, FMC and Square-1 results. I remember my 4x4 average was 1:55.xy (so you could round it up to 1:55.99 in the results) and my FMC result was 44 I think. Don't know what you'll do with these Mats.
Thanks.
