At the moment i´m so bad at 5x5x5 BLD.
My accuracy is less than 20% I think.
Just got a good solve: 9:04.57, but off by 3 centers, no clue why.
Could have been faster, i had to memo a part of the wings twice because of a mistake.

Was attempting OH BLD for my first time, I was memoing in the car, and then we arrived home, I put the cube in my pocket and went upstairs to continue. When I thought I was done, I totally forgot to take care of parity. (I use M2, and I was an M2 off) Grr...

That doesn't sound right... parity is more than just an M2 move.
Pfft, what would you know about M2? :rolleyes:

@penguino - keep on trying. in my case I did first successful solve on competition, around 2 weeks after my first attempt at home.

Well, actually it was odd number on the corners so I did a Y-perm on the corners before executing the edges, so 2 corners were swapped too. Then at the end of the solve I would do U' F2 U M2 U' F2 U, and then end up with a Y perm. What I had in the solve was being an M2 off, and the corners swapped. Sorry for not explaining it/explaining incorrectly in the first post.

Sub-hour! Awesome. I predict you'll be faster than me in about a month. In other words, at about the same rate that you've already gotten faster than me at everything else.

To be honest, a year ago, when I started the weekly Comp, my goal was to be faster than you in all events. But back then I thought, 5x5x5 BLD in 15 minutes, that´s impossible for me. Now ... (but your still official better than me in all BLD events
)We will see about 7x7x7 BLD. The next weeks will be very stressful for me (exams and orals at university), so not much time for practice, particularly not much time for 7x7x7 BLD.
59 stm is very short, even for a good solve
Normally it's about 95 moves, but if I change my parity method and learn a bunch of 22LL algs, I could reduce it to 85-90. Good solves (sub30s) are usually 70-80 moves.

Grrr... 0/2 MBLD in 9:32. 1st cube was a little off. 2nd cube was off by two flipped edges, I sent to "g" instead of "b" which are the same piece, different sticker.
