Since I don't really practice much anymore (school), I don't have the stamina to do many solves in a session. I used to be able to do 10+, but now 5 will give a burnout. However, I just did the first three solves in about a week (give or take a few days), and I got this:
number of times: 3/3
best time: 1:20.46
worst time: 1:41.42
current mean of 3: 1:32.91 (σ = 9.00)
best mean of 3: 1:32.91 (σ = 9.00)
session avg: 1:36.85 (σ = 0.00)

3BLD
Scramble: U' B2 R L' F B' U F D U2 L F' U' R U' F' D2 R U D2 R' U' D2 B2 R2
Time: 56.14
I'm very excited for another sub-60! However, this scramble feels a little lucky so I'm not sure if I want to count it as my pb single. Still fun though!

3x3x3 multiBLD: 9/9, 42:52.89 [29:02]
Finally got a fully successful multiBLD solve in the weekly competition this week. It was kind of slow executing because I didn't want to miss again - I'm tired of doing 9, but I was determined to do one successfully (and maybe get on qq's list) before I changed. I think I'm going to start going for 11 now.
(Had trouble recalling the memo on Chris's scramble: 1:23.00.)

Did my weekly 4x4x4 BLD solve and got a new PB.
4x4x4 BLD - 6:32.99 mins
I missed the timer but when i put off my blindfold i saw 6:32.xx, so i made it .99.
Basicalley it was a normal solve and i dont know why i was so much faster. i NEVER paused while execution and the memo was 3:02 mins. I just memorized in one row and didnt think too much. And it worked.

Hi guys, long time no see! Sorry I have not been writing much, though I have been reading. I needed some time off from everything after Norwegian Open 2011 which I won with MBLD 7/8 in a rediculous amount of time (50+ minutes blah blah blah).
I have regained my focus and want to do well at my next competition that will probably be in Sweden
First multi-blind since last competition: 12 of 12 cubes in 1:09.40 . I know I can press this down to 13/13 sub-60. Glad to see everyone else is also advancing alot, GJ guys!

5/6 in 50:56.70
Could have been much much faster. I'll make another room (currently doing 2 cubes per room) since I only have 3..
The one cube off I all edges done, but the corners I started with the wrong letter, so as a result I was cycling the wrong pieces to start. I realized I did it halfway through too but..yeah.
I need to buy more 3x3x3's...
I think I need more rooms, currently I'm being massively slowed down by when I start a new cube (2nd cube per room) I need to remember where I Left off, if hte location is only half empty (in which case I Put a barrier in between the objects in the location, if the new cube is mid letter pair image then I put one between the actual image in the location, if that makes sense), and overall it's slow.
I think I'll try making 3 more rooms tonight if I can and retry sometime this week doing 1 cube per room.
Should have been sub50 but I had to go to the bathroom halfway. Must admit, it must have looked weird with my headgear and blinfold on, going to the bathroom.
Should have brought the cube with me in there

Must be willfully blind not to see that the 2x2x2 is in each cube. Nobody control perfectly the smallest.
The number of visitors on a youtube video does not mean anything, or almost. Many heroes unsung.

my first blindsolve on any cube was a 2x2. it was last week and it was 1:15.34. I was never into blindsolving since i was too lazy to learn how to blindsolve...

4x4 BLD: 13:59.24, memo was 6:13.xx.
Not lucky but easy cycles all the way and no parity.

RyanReese09: Good job man, keep up the momentum!
Johan: Scramble? Would like to compare myself to someone elses scramble!
Dennis: Good job on the 4´3, I think alot more people are getting interested in bigger cubes BLD because of you guys!

I'm not that great at BLD, but I've done a multiblind for 3x3x3 of 2 cubes, and 2x2x2 with 5 cubes. Best time for 3x3x3 is 3:33.16

I was wondering if anyone other than stephen pochman has done a megaminx BLD
I did the 15 puzzle once during October in daylight savings time, and got a time of 10:30.25 (-49:29.75 if you include shotaro's negative time solving)
