I have officially entered a BLD slum. For the past two days i haven't been able to get my success rate above 50% :/

 

[NevinsCPH]

I entered the slum 1 day, last wednesday. I try to record myself doing 4BLD, then it just keep DNFs, I gave up recording after 5th take. My accuracy went back normal in thursday.

Results from Dayton 2012

3x3: DNF DNF DNF

First cube was completely mixed up and oriented wrong. I probably twisted the corners wrong.
Second cube was off by two flipped edges GRR...
Third cube was off by two flipped edges and a 3 cycle.

4x4: DNF DNS DNS

This was my first actual attempt which was off by 4 centers, most of the edges, and most if not all of the corners. It wasn't as draining as I thought it would have been but I didn't want to waste everyone's time there.

Soon! Did you memorize the wings?

Of course

7th attempt:

Off by a r2 and 3 centers. I keep forgetting to do r2 when doing wing parity.

it's wierd though, ever since i went to m2 my accuracy went down, and then for a day i got like 10 in a row, now i'm getting more like 30% accuracy -_-

33.11[12.31] DNF cause of a 2-cycle I didn't seen ! Nevertheless I'm very happy about this time

Missed 4BLD PB executing a wrong cycle... off by 2 centers...

memo: TS
recall:TS
execution: IS ?????????????

2x2-5x5 relay bld DNF (54:55.12)

2x2,3x3 and 5x5 was solved but the 4x4 was off by 12 pieces.

i want to try this after i get a 4BLD success. to bad about the 4BLD :/

 

[bryson azzopard]

Just finished my 8th 4BLD attempt. Everything was solved except the edges at UB and UL were swapped. I forgot to fix corner parity at the end >____________>


This is the worst thing ever.

you already have tried more attempts then me omg that was quick. so close (closer then ive ever been)

An attempt only takes me 15/20 minutes. Memo is easy since I practice MBLD a lot and a good knowledge of comms makes the execution faster than using U2/R2

Wasn't as bad as my first attempt. I got absolutely mad about my first attempt because the 5x5 was off by 2 center pieces . After that I wasn't motivated to do another attempt for 3 months.

This happened. Again...

4BLD DNF streak 7 (closest was 2 centers off)

 

[HEART]

4BLD off my 7 pieces, 4 edges and 3 centers.

:c well atleast i'm not messing up on undoing my center set up moves like i was the first few times around, now i'm just messing up in my execution -_-

 

[Marcell]

This happened. Again...

I got into the habit of knocking twice on the table when corners have an odd parity. It helps me remember that I have to fix it at the end of the solve. Maybe you should try it too.

Lol I just cross my legs when I have corner parity in big cubes

It's a good idea to have an extra bit of memo for the parity fix. Thanks, I'll give it a go.

This is getting ridiculous...
