Blindsolving Failure Thread

then you're edge flip was not caused by what I'm describing. Carry on.

Went for an 8 cube multi attempt for weekly comp 15. Memo was 10:55.
I gave up on the third cube because I kept getting the moves of two simple algs mixed up/together: U M' U2 M U and M U M' U2 M U M'.

Wut.
Nice memo time :tu

Yea, awesome memo time Zane :tu. Looks like you could sub 20min 8 cubes. I am not aware of anybody who ever did this yet.

Decided to see how I'd do with an average of 12...results... 0/12

All solves were off by either a 3-cycle or an R-perm...so frustrating!!!



Times were all sub-4 though...so at least some good came from it...

Any practice is good practice, of course

3 DNFs at Toronto Spring

Multi at Diñs Open: 3/8 in 53.xx

First official attempt at 8 cubes. I wanted to see if I could fit them in one hour, at least I succeeded in that.

Finish memo...
look at cube before donning blindfold, ???? buffer piece is different from memo???

:fp memo'd holding the cube in the wrong orientation :fp

On a positive note: this means that I do not reference to centers at all during memo.

5/8 (16:47.40)[9:05].

I think 8 is my new favourite number of cubes.

DNF(1:50.04)

Woah, fastest attempt I have ever done afaik. Off by 2 2-cycles of edges. I recognized during execution that I had missed something during memo, but had no way of figuring out what it was mid-solve.

Just today I did my first attempt to multiblind with letter pairing memo. Also 3rd solve I've ever done with this memo. Was hard to memo (about 9 minutes) because I was surrounded by people, but DNF the second cube by a R-Perm. So close >.< Counted the number of sequences so I didn't even know that I had to do a parity fix.

Well, good for me anyway. Doing a memo and having to go sticker by sticker to remember the letters I assigned and still solve one cube is a total success.

First attempt at multi BLD for the weekly comp: on both cubes I mess up a Y-perm...

 

[Micael]

multi 26/30 in 3:01:24 (2:17:38)
Looks like I messed few cubes early in execution because I was too nervous, it was 6/10 on first 10 cubes executed. Difficult, but not insane.

 

[uberCuber]

wtf Micael
and where do you get so many cubes

 

[EricReese]

DNF'd all my solves at Cornell, and one of the scrambles had a corner twist, with 4 corner targets, and an edge solved already

Somehow forgot where I was in the Y perm because I was focusing on what was next in my memo <_<

 

[Micael]

Actually, I don't have enough cube...

Very nice attempt, 26 is still really good! :tu

0/2 on my first multi attempt, 8:34.70

Went VERY slow. Done with letter pairs/sentences/phrases/images/scenes/what-have-you, no rooms or journey. Audio on one set of corners.
I guess I was going too slow for the audio, I memo'd LSMA for the first part, and executed LISMA, because that's how it sounded :/ 3 corners off.

The second cube had 2 flipped edges (the buffer was solved). No idea why, memo was rock solid.

Was training for 4BLD memoing.

 

[EricReese]

First attempt at M2 not sighted (I think?)

This new memo system/execution when its M2 off is still a little weird for me

6:27.30 DNF. At first I thought I had a success because I was only seeing the Yellow/blue/red faces and was pleased, but then I rotated the cube and saw that I was off by a pure 2flip in BL and BD pieces. Oh well.
