4x4 BLD: 7:40.97

First success! Memo was probably around 3:10 or something, so pretty average. It had corner and wing parity, too. Unfortunately, it wasn't a weekly comp scramble.

Congrats! That's a very fast time for a first success! How many attempts did it take you?

How many attempts did it take you?

A lot.

That took ages.
Nevertheless, congratulations!
How did it feel?
You probably didn't even think you had it yourself after so many DNFs

Just for a fun comparison, my first successful 4x4x4 BLD solve took 63:42.73.



Congratulations - that is truly awesome. And an average memorization time of 3:10 on 4x4x4 BLD is pretty amazing; I've probably only had about 10 solves before with memorization times that fast.

I'll join in on the praise! Very good. Congratulations!
And to follow up on the comparisons, my first took 35 minutes.

If you DNF about 20-30 times before getting a success though..

 

[aronpm]

Thanks guys. It felt pretty good, but I couldn't run around and shout because people were asleep After memo, I knew, "I'm going to get this one...". My first attempt was probably about 30 minutes.

joey: lol, more than that.

ya j`ey *100

[Tim Major]

234 relay soon

First blindfold succes!!!!!!!!

Solved 2 of 5 attempts on the 2x2x2
It is not much but it is a start!

Now got to do some work on parity and once I've got that figured out I'll move up to the 3x3x3, I already got edges down.

 

[04mucklowd]

Solved edges except the 4 flip

No memo method ftw

Lol I have this too
I just remember the cube visually
although my success is very limited

Sounds like a memo method to me...

If you're able to memorize the cube, you obviously have a way of doing it.

3:03 solve at my competition a few days ago. I never ever practice, so this is a good time for me.

 

[MiloD]

non lucky 1:24.99 3x3BLD!!

I'm so excited! 2x2 bld practice is really paying off and I'm sure I'm gonna stick with visual corners! I want to sub one this summer! BLD is AWESOME

 

[Cubenovice]

Solved my first parity on 2x2x2 during weekly comp 22

Well, actually the solve was still a DNF since I was off by AUF after fixing (my first ever solved...) parity
However this was a very good learning case!
"do not forget to undo the initial set up move to bring the "to be flipped" piece to RFD." I think I now fully understand the corner parity.

I gues that qualifies as an accomplishment.

Thank you forum, old Ochman method and Joel for helping me succeed in blindfold cubing!

Lol.
And how is there parity in 2x2 blind? There's no edges >_> Unless you aren't using classic/old Pochmann.

Only one turn off is not DNF, that is just a 2 second penalty.
