Ugh. Not a great way to start back up on blind... :fp

The 2:28 would've been awesome if I'd seen those pieces - PB is 2:32

Just rage quit my latest MBLD because I couldn't make an image out of: SAHJNFQ.

Mine would be "Snape attacks horney jaguars" and "Nagini f***s qu***s"

That doesn't make any sense with my location though my location was a book shelf.

On a bookshelf?

They're wearing glasses.

I feel bad about being so gross, but If there's a pair you hate, it should be profane.

4x4 BLD: DNF(36:29)
Off by two centers and two edges...

0/2 MBLD in 6:26

Both cubes wrong in the exact same way. 2 flipped edges, FD (orange/white) and LB (green/red).

The more vulgar and inappropriate the better it is to remember.

Double post.

My first 3BLD ao12 is a DNF

Average of 12: DNF
1. 3:09.83
2. DNF(2:18.64)[6 edges off]
3. DNF(3:55.52)[2 twisted corners]
4. DNF(4:00.59)[2:16.00 3 edge cycle]
5. DNF(4:29.71)[2:59.48]
6. DNF(2:13.92)[realized wrong corner memo - angry DNF]
7. (3:07.40)
8. 3:26.02
9. DNF(4:52.73)[forgot last 3 edges]
10. DNF(4:03.38)[2 edges 2 corners + 2corners rotated]
11. DNF(3:05.60)[2 flipped edges]
12. DNF(4:46.65)[parity and 3 corners]

Ergh.

2/4 MBLD in 19:48.94. Memo: 12:35.04

AHHHHH!!! Two flipped edges on the two wrong cubes. I know exactly what happened. I had solved these two cubes 2nd and 3rd, and forgot to flip their edges. At the end of the last cube, I happened to remember. The thing is, both of the cubes were guhongs. And so then, I flipped the edge of the OTHER cube on the cubes. The only positive result from this is that I learned my lesson that I should put the cubes I've solved in order somewhere else, not just toss it to the side. Good thing I did know to keep the correct orientation though. But still... that close! They would've been solved if I had known the difference between the two cubes...

EDIT: It's even worse now. I realized that I actually DID flip the edges correctly. Then at the end, I thought I didn't, so I flipped them again!!!!

First 4BLD attempt with comms....scrambled cube. WHY ARE D LAYER COMMS SO HARD!?

Three midges out.

Lots of sub-15's lately. A few sub-13s too, and all DNFs are off by 2 or 3 pieces each time. I'll only come back once I've gotten sub-10, it's only a matter of time.

 

[NevinsCPH]

20+ attempts of 4BLD still no success, most of them are in close state. E.G. 2 edges swapped, or parity for corners or edges.

 

[Jakube]

Long time since I last posted any result. The reason, I don't have any result. I haven't done any Multi, any 4BLD, any 5BLD or any seriously 3BLD since my last competition at the end of March. Big failure I guess.

But I also have two accomplishments.
1st: Today is the start of the summer holidays.
2nd: I prepared a complete new Letter-Pair-List.

So I will start practicing today, mostly 3BLD and Multi. I hope I will get used to the new List quickly.

 

[PianoCube]

I did my first multi bld attempt not long ago. I tried two cubes and didn't managed to solve any of them. The first one had two twisted corners and the second had two swapped edges and two swapped corners. Memo took about 30 minutes while solving took 5 minutes.

I think I'll wait with more multi bld until I can do sub 5 minutes single.

lol, I tried it, got a sucky 57, and also the same DNF with 2 edges to flip >.<

Ugh, it takes me too long to deal with twisted corners and flipped edges (memo and execution). 1:05.91. Still, not a bad solve for me.
